WC PadZ QC Ultra - Upgraded Earpads for Bose QuietComfort Ultra Made by Wicked Cushions | Enhanced Comfort & Thickness | Upgraded Memory Foam & Premium Materials | Black

These cushions are great so far and it’s nice to have designs to choose from, although there aren’t many choices for my headphone model (Bose QC ultra). The foam in these WC cushions is much firmer than the OEM cushions, but it is memory foam, so it fits your head better and the higher foam density MAY help slightly with sound dampening. I wish the foam was a bit softer, but the foam is not uncomfortable at all. In fact, the headphones used to unseal slightly from my face (and let in outside noise) when I turned my head sideways (with the OEM cushions), but with the WC cushions this doesn’t happen anymore. Also, these cushions seem to be made better than the POORLY stitched OEM cushions, which fell apart after 9 months (SHAME on you, Bose!!!) and are somehow more expensive. For my headphones these WC cushions were super easy to install (maybe different for other brands or models) - just unsnap the old ones and snap in the new ones. I really love these cushions but wouldn’t have bought them if I had to pay international shipping. Thanks to them being available on Amazon, I was able to get a nice pair of good looking headphone cushions. I love these and give them 5 stars, but I hope they will add more designs to choose from like other models have. Also, I wish the memory foam inside was a bit softer, but the foam they used is still comfortable and functional.

Bose should be ashamed of themselves. I’ve had these headphones for about 5 months & the ear cups are already falling apart. I’m not going to front and pretend that I “baby” my headphones, but it’s not like I’m throwing them down the stairs or running through mud in a storm. They’ve never been outside & the roughest surface they’ve encountered are pillow covers (couch and bed). I may’ve dropped them once or twice, but it wasn’t more than a 2 ft drop. This seems to be an increasingly disappointing trend among all manufacturers nowadays - charging more for a cheaply built product.Anyways, so far, I’m digging these replacements. They were easy to install and came with an extra pair of scrim mat replacements. Thankfully, the OG scrims are in good condition so they weren’t needed. The Wicked Cushions are a tad bit plusher than the OG’s while also being a bit more firmer. Unlike the cheaply glued OG ear cups, the WC ear cups are sewn/stitched. While they don’t have a high bar to meet, I’m confident the WC’s will last longer than 5 months. On ear, as far as I can tell, they feel equally comfortable. They do seem to more effective at passively blocking sound which is a huge bonus. As far as improving the sound quality, the jury is still out on that one. I can confidently say that sound quality doesn’t take a dip. Most importantly, WC is charging less than Bose for replacement ear cups. You can’t really ask for more.

Great replacement pads that are cheaper than original. Comfortable, though maybe not quite as soft as the Bose ones. But you can tell they are better quality and won't split apart like the Bose ones.

Fits like a charm, way more durable than the official ones. Quite comfortable too! The noise canceling is a bit worse bc they're bigger, but it's noticeable when you get used to it.

This is a bit thicker than the OEM version which is a good thing as it seems to isolate sound better with its passive noise cancellation; it's just as soft too! The OEM version was thinner and flattened out when worn. With the WC version, I don't notice much of a sound difference and ANC doesn't seem to be affected. In the end, it's worth it!

Perfect fit . Easy to install . Headphones feel better than with the original ear pads .

They work fine, and are quite comfortable. Unfortunately, it lessens the volume by a tad, and makes the headphones sound slightly more tinny. All in all there fine, and definitely have a less chance of breaking them the original, but if you care highly for the audio quality, you should likely just get the Bose ones.

Great replacements that seem just as good as the originals. My only complaint is that they seem too similar to the original - in that it only took a couple years for them to fall apart. That being said, it's not unusual for me to go hard on these because I wear them 8-16 hours a day, for my job, my entertainment, and while working out.
