All of these MDR-7506 posts reminded me that I purchased OEM pads for my Sony MDR-7506 many months ago but I never installed them. I had some free time this evening and I was still able to find the ear pads in my "stuff" so I thought I would give it a try. It was quite easy to remove the original pads. To install the new ones I started at the top (not the side) and did not push the material very far into the lip. I worked my way to the bottom holding the pad lip in place along the sides. When it was completely around I used a thin machinists scale to push the pad into the groove in areas where it was not seated properly. It was a little time consuming but not really difficult and now the headphones look new again. These are my favorite headphones!
John KK9A Frank O'Donnell K6FOD: Is there a secret trick for getting replacement earpads installed smoothly onto the headphones? I bought a pair of Sony pads for my MDR-7506, but try as I might, as I get one side into the groove on the headphone, the other side inevitably slips out. Beginning to get into the realm of the comical.
