Amazing headphones - have served me for over 3 years now. The question is: where can I get new cushions/pads for them because they are really warn out and crackly.
I believe that any of these should work.

Thanks mate.
Is there a difference between the pleather and velvet? And if then what?
Yes, there is. Pleather CAN give you a better seal (works best if you have short/no hair) which in turn can give you better bass response (read: more bass and fuller mids). Velvet (often heard it referred to as velour) is often preferred for comfort and will tend to give you crisper highs. If you liked the pleather on the stock ones, then go with more pleather. If you want a change of pace and more comfort, go with velvet. You COULD get both and see for yourself.I am always interested in sonic differences, but you might just want to replace what you lost which would be a rather cheap/safe route.
