I need to do this for my AKG 553s. None of the pads fit great though that I've found and I don't want to just buy replacements from AKG and have to replace them again in another 5 years
Like with all tasks of this nature, you tend to go through some duds. I search up on Reddit and Lemmy for ideas and take those to Amazon and eBay. That said, while not perfect, soulwit and geekria are who I got my pads from and would buy again. Both are on Amazon.
FYI, in my experience it takes a few days for new pads to “cure” into place (assuming it’s on completely). Once they have gone tight around the cup, it’s fine (for me).
Alright, soulwit pad ordered. Fingers crossed as the last two just did not work
Well Amazon has free returns, so no harm in trying. Gotta admit, I’m a little anxious for you now. Hope it works out!!
