Grado Pad Replacement

[bitchstewie]

Has anyone any experience of replacing the stock pads on Grado headphones please?

I have the SR325e and find the stock pads to get pretty uncomfortable after an hour or two.

I can't quite work out if it's the pressure of the headphones or the density of the foam or the size of the pad.

Hello stewie,

I've had a look but there isn't too much info regarding this online. There are a couple of good headphone sites but neither have tested the Grado SR325e model you have.

This site has tested the 125 and mentions concerns about comfort the fact that many models in the Grado range are mechanically very similar. looks like different pads can be purchased and there possibly aftermarket pads to improve comfort too. https://diyaudioheaven.wordpress.com/headphones/me... has

Yeah Amazon seem to have the Yaxi pads and Geekria which are cheap enough but still expensive to feel like my ears are being sanded and slowly ground away
