I do not recommend them if You are in love with oryginal sound of Your headphones
They are extremely well build. You can feel that this is a high quality product. Pads are very comfortable and fits very nicely on my headphones (ATH-M50xBT). Be aware that they are bigger than oryginal pads in all dimensions but this do not change anything (maybe a space needed when folded are little bit bigger). Now the cons…
Unfortunately they change the sound signature of headphones very much and for me this is the biggest issue with them. I love them when I wear them, but I truly hate them since I hear how they change the sound. Mids are destroyed (muffed and send back to the “second row”). Highs have less details and sounds cheap. Clarity is gone. Sound stage is noticeable smaller. Cheap Bass is everywhere and covers all the rest. There is simply much more bass and the bass is louder (this is not deep, punchy bass). I love the clarity, well balanced sound, reach punchy bass and all those details that M50x have with original pads. Overall these pads, changed my M50x in cheap no-named headphones. After hour I have enough and I throw the new pads to the garbage.
Don’t get me wrong. Build quality and materials are great, but I bought them because oryginal pads were not comfortable enough for me. So I though that this will be same (or nearly the same) sound signature with more padding on top, but this is not the case.
I do not recommend them if You are in love with oryginal sound of Your headphones.
