THIS IS A COMFORT MOD, THIS IS DONE FOR PEOPLE THAT GET EAR SORENESS FROM THE STOCK PADS BEING TOO SHALLOW RESULTING IN THE HEADPHONES SQUISHING YOUR EARS IN! **DO NOT DO THIS MOD JUST FOR SOUND IMPROVEMENT**
EDIT: Years later a few of the plastic clips broke off, I could tell by them rattling around so I just tossed them. My pads stay on just fine, they don't fall off on their own but come off with minimal effort if you do try to remove them. ALSO, the pleather material started cracking and flaking off just after the two year warranty was up so I replaced the pads with the Brainwavz Hybrid Memory Foam Earpads, pleather on the outside and velour that touches your face, so much more comfy and longer lasting than the HM5's.
HM5 pads do fit the SHP9500's perfectly! No ring adapters needed! Holy cow are these things comfortable!
Do use this as more of a guide than a how to. You can use any of your favorite pads.
It is not necessary to make any cuts on the pads it just make it a lot easier to clip them on.
The pads I used are several years old and cracked all over the place.

I tried to remove the pads on mine. First attempt, the plastic latches broke off even when I was extra careful. Did some googling and found out that this seems to be the case with a great deal of people. So not only do you need a gentle but firm hand but also luck. Only solution for me now was to plasticglue the ring with the new pads onto the headphone permanently. So I would not recommend doing this unless you have a back up plan when the latch snaps off.

They looked very breakable in the video so I made sure to counter balance my force with pressure near the middle be very careful to not apply any horizontal pressure during the removal but it definitely felt like they'd break the entire time. That said, I think if you only broke one plastic tab it would probably be fine.

Hey man, nice video! Here are some tips I've learned while modding pads: I would recommend getting a pair of small sewing scissors. They're great for working with tiny pieces of foam, fabric, leather etc. You can also put some masking tape on the pads before cutting them and this will help make nice clean cuts. If the masking tape adhesive is strong you can stick it on some cloth and peel it off, repeating as necessary, to reduce its tackiness before putting it on your pads. Otherwise the tape can damage the surface of the leather when you pull it off.

I use the ghetto mod; just roll up a couple of socks and stuff them in behind the earpads. Probably best to use freshly laundered socks though.

I unfortunately did this mod, and let it be known that it increases the discomfort of the headphones from the minuscule amount they had to an unusable amount. For those who have the problem with your ears touching the driver fabric and looking to get rid of that, this mod will fix it. I too had that problem and tried this to fix it, and it brought on an even more uncomfortable problem which could not be undone. The new problem was a very uncomfortable pressure point right above the ears cause by the pads being thicker than the originals. So instead of a slight abrasion on the cartilage of my ear, I now had headache inducing pressure pressed at the top most part of the ear pads. Please be extra weary of this as I am sure many already are when they think of trying this. I suggest doing what he did at 0:40 but only in the area behind the ear instead of all around it, so the foam shape would be crescent.

@JeradBenge
@JeradBenge 3 года назад
@@Huntmx24 Those pads made them lean a bit warmer, and seemed to extend the low end a bit, or smooth out the mid-bass hump, depending on the track. A little too warm and buttery for my taste, when I moved them over to my tube amp. Pretty nice on lively solid state amps with extra headroom to crank it up a few notches. Imaging will suffer because the drivers are being moved out, and away. The soundstage seems wider, but doesn't get extended vertically, or seem any deeper. I went back to Shure 1840 pads, because those fit my preference, and uses better.
@Iceman15333
@Iceman15333 5 лет назад
actually you can just stretch the pads over the tabs that the plastic ring clips into on the drivers. it's a little finicky to get on, but they stay on well, and you don't need to modify or cut anything. It looks almost the same as what this mod gives you, and doesn't destroy the stock pads or the HM5 pads. After removing the stock pads like in the video you simply stretch the HM5's over the whole housing first, and then slide them off slowly until the edge of the pads catch on the ring with the tabs on the driver. If you go too far and they come off you have to start over. I guess if something tugged on the pad they would come off easier, but I've had them on this way for a month now and haven't had any issues, that said i only use them at my desk and don't use them on the go.

Thanks for the tutorial, I got lucky finding this as I happened to have a pair of velour brainwavz that I bought for my ATH-m50's and only got to use the pads about a month before my M50's finally died after about 6 or 7 years and they happened to be there in my drawer collecting dust. Worked out great.

Just finished this mod. I have the pleather hm5 on right now. The comfort is awesome since the driver is lift of from your ears. Because of the more room in the headphones I feel like I need more volume to drive them. The bass is increased quite a lot and highs are there but not as present as before. They sound even better in my ears but if you like the stock sound signature of the shp9500 I recommend you checking out the shure hpaec 940 or similar since those preserve the original sound signature.

i've never seen this video until now and as a mix engineer that prefers these headphones because it's what i learned the most on, i have to say, before i bought leather repllacements i did the hard foam (from a microphone case) cut into an oval thing shoved into the space between the pad and the driver and it worked great, i honestly thing that worked better than the replacements, i lost a noticible amount of mid range and didn't like the sound of them when i first got the replacements, i had to quish the crap out of them and run my amp at higher volume to get used to them again. i'm just sayin'. if your pads are good dont replace them, just do the oval cut foam. ;)

I just did this pad swap and boy let me tell ya: Don't risk you headphones. Use an EQ. Throughout the whole process that I went through I was crying for the life of my headphones. Basically you some low end yes, but I don't think most people will notice it. Also, I decided to keep the veil that was on the plastic since the one that comes with the HM5 pads is too thin. And if you want to ignore my advice: DON'T USE ANGLED PADS, look for straight ones otherwise you'll look kinda silly wearing your SHP.

Thumbs up for finding a solution that works for you, but let me ask you this: what is the point of saving the oem pads if you're never going to use them again? You found a better pad and no one downgrades. I'm not trying to bash, just trying to get you to see both sides of the coin. You now have less money and you have more junk. I try to promote not spending money so you're richer and reusing stuff you already have so less waste, you know, bigger picture stuff.

I've found that you don't actually need the plastic ring at all, and you can simply stretch the pad's flap over the driver housing. The only mod to make is to cut a small hole in the left flap over the cable jack. The brainwavz round velour pads (not the XLs) fit even better like this.

@CupcakeBattle
@CupcakeBattle 7 лет назад
I tried the velour and hybrids on the 9500 and it does increase the bass because the sound isn't escaping out as much as the stock pads. There's also a little more clamp on your ears which provides a more secure fit . The hd 598 are bass light, but have very clear highs and the 2.5mm lock connector is retarded but still a good headphone. It depends on your budget

Don't expect magic here, this mod is done mainly for comfort. While it does have some minor advantages like "increasing" bass, it barely does. If you're deciding between headphones you can't really know what is better until you actually try them out yourself. Don't rely on other peoples opinions on sound, rely on your own, just use others as a guide. My recommendation would be to try to find a friend or music store that will let you try them out. If those are not an option find a store that accepts returns, either local or online (look for no restocking fees & paid return shipping) order them and return the ones you don't like (could be both.)

You'd have to seal up the back. Maybe find some craft foam and plastic and cut them to shape to cover up the back, but it'd have to be perfect. What I would do would be the "artsy" way. Get some clay from a hobby store, make a totally flat piece and press the back of the drivers on the clay to make a mold. Then make a copy of the impression with mold-making latex like what they do in hollywood. Then I'd use some kind of resin or liquid plastic that I can make perfectly molded caps out of to cover the back. But doing all that might cost as much as getting a noise-canceling pair of headphones for mobile use.

It'll most likely increase the clamping force at first, the thicker pads would be push the headband farther. I own 2 pairs, the 9500 and the 9500s, and both have loosened up over time from regular use. You can place something in between the headphones like a box or some books or a couple tshirts to keep them stretched out when not in use, that will help them stretch out faster.

This are amazing sounding headphone under $100 and compete with $300+ Audiophile Headphones. The pads are non removable and hold in sweat and are not the most comfortable. This pads make the SHP9500 10x more comfortable and give it a little more bass since these are open headphones.

Comfort. These pads are much deeper and softer than the originals. I specifically had a problem with one of my ears barely touching the inside with the original pads and after 30 minuets it would start aching very bad. This mod solved the problem and now I can wear them 8+ hours a day with no problems at all.

***** False on both assumptions. The drivers are firing straight into your ears at less than an inch away, and these are open back. You are hearing 100% of the drivers clearly, at no point is the pad going to change the sound. With all technicalities aside, coming from someone who has experienced both pads at the same time for a few weeks (the first clip you see both pads on the headphones which is how I wore them for weeks until I made this video) I can tell you these pads sound exactly the same as the stock ones and neither sound more "tinny." The HM5 pads are actually a bit smaller then the stock SHP9500s that were replaced, they are not wider. If you did even the slightest bit of research you would easily find that the inside hole of the HM5 pads measure 50mm at the narrowest point, same size as the driver and the drivers are angled so there is no chance that the pads are "blocking" any part of the driver. By all means don't do the mod if it's not for you, but facts are facts.

***** Neither of these are things you said in your first comment, so try to stay on track. Sound stage is completely different from how something sounds. Yes the pads are thicker, not wider, thicker which means way more comfortable and your ears are not touching anything.

I have pads, and i also have adapters so i have been able to do a to b comparisons, they do change the sound signature, and i wouldnt say for the better. However i find the change is very small. It is perfectly viable to use these pads if u prefer the comfort over the stock pads. But bewarned, this mod is permanent and i personally found them to be brighter and tinnier from this mod.

Kanna Karuppasamy I have the SHPs and I kind of wish I had gotten the ATH Ad700xs justing basing off of reviews the ATs have a bigger soundstage and are better for gaming. I'll probably snag a pair if they ever go on sale
