Ear Pads Sheepskin Leather Cushion Replacement for Oppo PM-3 PM3

Nothing to dislike about these - read about these pads online and they are fantastic as others have said. Very easy to install (just read instructions in earlier review), super soft like the originals, quality seems good, no sound degradation to my ears, and a bargain - what’s not to like!

My Oppo PM-3 headphone pads were falling apart after sitting in a box for years. I’m glad I found these because I was leaving little black specs of fake leather everywhere! These were easy to install and fit perfect.

Relatively easy to install (search for instructional video on YouTube) and seem like quality.

Pulled my PM-3s out of storage for a long trip where I wanted them to use on the plane and to use in a studio recording session at the destination....alas half way through the recording session the pleather was turning to dust! Found a nylon zipper tube hereon Amazon that covered up the deteriorating headband and also these ear pad replacements. While some reviewers had issues with earlier batches of these, the tach I had fit onto the retaining rings fairly easily.. Just enough stretch to get over the rings without too much fuss and also tight enough so you know it's going to stay put until you can get everything back together. There's an excellent YouTube video from Home Studio Basics on the process to install..a must to see before tackling this. Like other reviewers have said use a butter knife to pop the old earpads off WITH the retention ring first which makes the removal of the tired pads from the retention rings much easier. The more time you take fine tuning the new pads onto the rings , the better the end result will look. The trickiest part to this was getting the retention rings to pop back into place onto the headphone housing as there;s no real guide or sense that they are in the exact spot they belong where they will click into place. I found it helpful to keep the headphones a flat surface and gently with the heel of my hand press on the edges til there was the audible click. Sound quality and comfort etc. were back to being as good as new so very nice to get more years out of what is sill a stellar headphone.

The ear pads seem to be pretty decent quality, and the old ones were falling apart, so now I may use these headphones occasionally. The removal and installation were not too difficult with a Google tutorial for a little assistance.

These ear pads for Oppo PM3 are a great replacement for the original ear pads that came with the headphones, much softer and feels like real material instead of synthetic leather. I have been able to enjoy my headphones for a longer period of time since I put these on the Oppos much more comfortable and does a better job of blocking out distractions.

Product good replacement for original OPPO headphone pads. However, they are tricky to install. It takes patience and perseverance. Not necessarily a fault of the replacement pads, just the nature of how the headphones were built.

A LITTLE TRICKY TO INSTALL AND A LITTLE LARGER THAN THE ORIGINALS. SOUND QUALITY SEEMS UNCHANGED. NOT QUITE AS SOFT BUT AT LEAST THEY DO NOT SHED AND FALL APART

Perfect replacement pads. Easy enough to switch out, just take your time and be methodical. Deleted the last 9 years of wear and tear cosmetic damage. Very highly recommended. Let's see how they do with usage. Just listened to them for a couple of hours. Very comfortable, and have genuinely breathed life back into how they sound.

I'll start by saying that these cost me $42AUD which is nearly half the price of the first party replacements that are still available through Oppo Digital ($79), so I decided to take a risk on the back of the overwhelmingly positive reviews. Installing the replacement pads is a real struggle, there are no instructions and it is extremely finicky - thankfully Simon's Amazon review provides in-depth instructions. Very important to note is that installation requires that you sacrifice your originals pads to cannibalise the plastic ring - this is a real issue should you not like these replacements. I would have much preferred to pay a few more dollars for the convenience and ability to retain the originals. Build quality is average and it is apparent on first inspection where the saving went. Stitching is inconsistent and they feel pretty average to the touch around the edges and stitching, which I found especially noticeable when removing. The leather coverage is a bit asymmetrical but would not be obvious at a glance. The ear opening is marginally smaller than the original and is slightly less comfortable for me. The foam is rather comfortable and I didn't notice a change in apparent clamping pressure. Similarly to Randy's review I found these replacements noticeably changed the sound profile - I found the mids and bass sounded muddied. Unfortunately there is no going back thanks to sacrificing the originals. In conclusion I simply cannot recommend these as long as first party replacements are still available. While the originals may be nearly double the price, they lasted nearly 5 years. When you consider that we are talking audiophile grade headphones, the rather small saving simply isn't worth it.

This is the second time I have bought this product, shortly after my first buy. The product fits so nicely and is so comfortable that I decided to buy a backup, given the frequent use I make with the headphones. Thank you for an excellent product, which lengthens the life of the headphone itself.

Had to use a razor blade to trim excess plastic off in order to fit them to my headphones, but they fastened securely in place after this and make a tight seal, not impacting on sound quality or comfort at all. There's slightly more padding than the originals, but I don't view this as a bad thing and the headphones sit easily on your head.

Ich bin ich völlig zufrieden. Kam schnell aus Fernost an, mit guter Verpackung. Mit den einfachen Haushaltsgegenständen und ein wenig Videohilfe, nach 20 Minuten ein fast neues Tragegefühl. Aus meiner Sicht, volle Punktzahl.
