Defean Sundara Velvet Faux Leather Soft Foam Replacement Ear Pads Ear Pads Compatible with Hifiman Sundara HE400 HE400SE 400I 400S HE560 560I HE500 300 350 HE3 5 6 Headphones

Very comfortable, as good if not better than originals. Took 1 minute to remove the originals and put them on. I highly recommend after one month of use

Prefect replacement! They fit well and are withstanding regular use. I wish they were cheaper though

fits right away without needing to look for any tutorials, now my Sundara cans sound like they should, thanks, possibly slightly different sound now, but not bothered about getting original pads, so i stick with these

Purchased October last year and they were noticeably less comfy than the stock pads, however I needed new ones so I accepted the decline in comfort and got used to it. Now today, I've just noticed that one of the pads has ripped and the sponge inside is very visible. Very disappointing for only having them for such a short period.

People are saying the installation process is on HiFiMan, not Defean but I'd hard disagree with that. The material is barely held on with only a thin strip glued to the mounting plate with terrible adhesive. This means as you bend the pad to get it on, the material comes away from the plate. On both occasions now I've had to super glue them back to the plate afterwards, utterly destroying the aesthetic. Only reason I give them 3 stars is they are fairly comfortable and sound okay for the 6 months or so that the remaining adhesive lasts and they fall apart. Also the cheap foam means they will eventually flatten, just like the OEMs.

I have purchased these twice. First time, they lasted about 1.5 years. I purchased them again recently and they've barely lasted 3 months. They're failing in multiple ways, completely coming apart. I assume they changed something between my two purchases, will not be buying again.

they were ok i guess, didnt quite popi right but idk if thats just because of the retention mechanisum hifi had for these but now one ear is falling apart already got in feb now its October

While its a bit different than the original earpads, I had no problems getting used to these, my problem is that these only lasted for a year, with 1-3 hours daily use. And the damage seems preventable my guess is that these were made to wear out within a year or two so you would buy more of them : ( .

Very comfortable and provides nearly the same sound as the stock pads

My earlier replacement pads of another brand has its faux leather peeled off badly after about 1 year of usage. So i bought this as replacement. Hopefully this new replacement can last much longer. This replacement pad is easier to installed than the my earlier pads but its still quite fragile...so be gentle during installation else you may break the mounting brackets. Fitting : The outer and inner diameter matches the earphone well and fitting is no issue. Audio Performance: Sounds exactly like the original pads. No issue with sound performance.

After a few years of heavy use the pads on my HE-5SE started to blow up and disintegrate pretty badly while I was in the middle of editing a large video project. I tried to fix them with spray adhesive but it turned into a chore. With Prime I could get these in about 36 hours, so I pulled the trigger. Price was right. Overall the material quality feels pretty identical to the HiFiMan pads. For the most part you could put these next to the same style HiFiMan pads and you would be hard-pressed to spot the difference. The faux leather is nice, the foam is just firm enough, and they seems just about as un-sturdy as the HiFiMan equivalent! As a few others mentioned, they sucked a fair bit to install -- certainly harder than the original HiFiMan pads. Because the backing is plastic you run the risk of bending them if you push too hard (scary) and I wound up swearing a fair bit trying to get them on. No sooner would I get two tabs in than another would pop out. Very frustrating, but I guess you pay for a bit of the price discrepancy with sweat equity. I would totally buy again in the future though -- good enough for me, no real impact on sound, if anything they restored the "space" and sound stage a bit by moving the cans back away from my ears (my old pads compressed a lot more because they were heavily used).
