Geekria QuickFit Replacement Ear Pads for Bose AE1, Triport 1 TP-1 Headphones Ear Cushions, Headset Earpads, Ear Cups Cover Repair Parts (Black)

EDIT 12/21/14: I have had a chance to more extensively test these aftermarket pads against the original Bose pads that I ordered at the same time. Although I will not detract any "stars" from my review but I still felt the need to qualify regarding a couple points ... first, as mentioned in the original review .. these pads do not fit *over* the entire ear as well as the original Bose pads; they sort of rest *on* the ear as opposed to fully enclosing it; the Bose pads I ordered fully enclose my ear and do not rest on the ear surface. Further, be it the materials used or the fact that they rest on the ear differently than the more fully circumaural Bose pads, the sound is definitely affected. The original Bose pads yield brighter highs, deeper low frequencies and pretty much just a better, more energetic sound than these after market pads do. I want to be careful to say that you would probably would never notice the difference unless, like myself, you had two pair of TP-1's to directly demo but the fact remains, these aftermarket pads do not sound quite as good as the originals; everything seems a bit flattened out ... highs are slightly dulled and the bass is not as deep and pronounced... Otherwise? I still think these are a fine product and the folk did a good job with them....(original review below)I have two pair of Triport TP-1 headphones and use them exclusively for gaming; they aren't that bad with music but I prefer more high end alternatives for serious music listening (Stax, etc.).But I do enjoy the Triport TP-1's very much for emulated 7.1 surround sound gaming (some of the best 2.1 headphones I've used in that regard, actually) and since both pairs of Triports that I own have failing pads, I decided it was time to replace them.Having read a lot of reviews from the various other third party pad providers, I decided to go with these (mostly because the reviews of other Geekria Bose pads were pretty much unanimously positive).Other more reviewed aftermarket pads had quite a few negative comments along the lines of, "they are too hard," "they change the sound," etc., whereas the Bose replacement pads from Geekria seemed to have way less negative comments, especially regarding pad suppleness and cushioning. So having looked these Geekria pads over quite a bit ... and noting that the mounting process was nearly identical to the stock Bose replacement pads, I decided to give them a shot.Also, at the same time, I bought a pair of genuine Bose replacement pads for my second pair of Triports so as to do a direct comparison.And after having installed both the Geekria aftermarket pads and also the genuine Bose pads on both of my Triports, I can say that the Geekria's are *very* close in overall quality as the original Bose pads, with one minor difference.The Geekria pads are just as pliable and "cush" as the genuine Bose pads (this was a concern of mine); they are not overly "hard" like certain other reviewers have claimed regarding other aftermarket pads and I can tell no real difference in sonic performance, either. They are very soft and the faux leather seems to be of decent quality ... pretty much identical to the Bose provided pads regarding feel of the "pleather" and overall cushioning/softness; they are very comfortable.The only real difference from the Bose originals is that the overall padding isn't quite as thick; the cushioning of the Bose provided pads I received about the same time as these is a bit thicker and also tend to fully encircle my ear more completely than the Geekria pads. The genuine Bose pads easily cover my entire ear whereas the Geekria pads tend to rest more on top of my ear, almost enclosing the full ear but not quite all the way. That said, both pads sound isolate equally well and these minor differences is hair splitting at best.But that last bit is just a minor quibble and I'd highly recommend these if you want a cheaper alternative to the $35 dollar Bose pads. Since I had two pairs of Triports, I decided to try both pads and even though I prefer the slightly more "circumaural" fit of the Bose pads, as well as the slightly thicker padding, I still think the musical performance of either pad is about equal.Definitely a solid aftermarket pad replacement. I also like the fact that they include the layer of filtering with adhesive to cover the drivers with, though I really didn't need that as my own filtering cloth is in decent shape. Still, nice to have on the shelf for future use...BTW: if your interested in the genuine Bose pads, you can get them by emailing Bose directly or calling them on the phone. I personally just started up a "live" support chat off of their website and the rep sent me a link to the purchase page.But yeah, take it from a completely obsessive compulsive audio guy ... the Geekria pads are legit.Cheers!

These pads are great. I spend a lot of my day in phones, and the new pads fit very well on the ears, and if anything, brought up the sounds.(which is always one of my fears, when getting new pads for any of my headphones) , really great for Bose TriPorts.

They're not even close to the size of the original ear pads. They're smaller. They don't cover the ears well and are NOT noise canceling! Not even a little bit. They came with no directions however I was able to go online and find a informational video. It was easy to do but they dont attach securely. Seems like they could easily fall off. Very disappointing and very cheap. They do look better than my old ones as the had totally fallen apart. I have since looked and can't seem to find any high quality replacements anywhere. Why have a high quality Bose headset if you can't get quality replacement parts. Now the quality is no better than cheap kids headset.

These are fantastic! They fit my Bose TP-1A headphones like the original ear pads. Easy to install and comfortable to wear.

Good fit and quality

I finally decided to order replacement ear pads for my Bose TP-1 set after putting up with about a year of ear pad disintegration leaving little black flecks of faux leather everywhere. These replacement pads are great and have the same sound and feel as the original pads. I would highly recommend these and am considering ordering another pair just in case these pads break down over time like the original (bose) pair did.

These have a great on my dads bose's headphones. I do wish they had some form of instruction because at first I tried to install incorrectly but quickly realized what I did work!These have brought new life to a sad pair of headphone!

These are the ones you want, enjoy

I haven't fit them yet because I'm waiting for my originals to crap out completely..which will be very soon. These pads look like the perfect fit for my 10 yr old bose triplet TP-1A headphones. Extremely happy with the product.

Arrived a week before they were promised, a two minute job and they fit perfectly bringing back to life my lovely old Bose headphones (a cherished Christmas present from long ago). They come complete with the protective inner membrane, already prepared with double sided tape and - likewise - a perfect first time fit. Just the job!!

Not cheap but the correct fit. Liked the little tool to aid fitting.

volete sapere cosa ne penso?appena finito di sostituire i vecchi cuscinetti ne ho immediatamente acquistata un'altra coppia per quando fra 3 o 4 anni mi serviranno di nuovo.Ho comprato vari cuscinetti per rinnovare le mie cuffie, ne ho diverse per vari usi, technics RP dh1200 philips A5 pro Sennheiser HD25, ma mai mi erano arrivati così perfetti come ricordo erano gli originali.Anche per la mia Bose AE1 avevo già comprato un paio di volte i cuscinetti nuovi ma erano sempre un filo troppo grandi, dovevo arrangiarmi tagliando e incollando per ridurre la circonferenza. Questi sono perfetti al decimo di millimetro e si montano con una leggera pressione dell'unghia per sentire lo scatto.Packaging superbo, doppia scatola robusta a incastro, quella interna con finestra trasparente da esposizione; all'interno i cuscinetti sigillati, un manualetto di istruzioni e un triangolo di plastica ( un "plettro" praticamente per chi suona chitarra ma più spesso e robusto) che vuole facilitare l'inserimento nella sede della cornice rigida di plastica all'interno delle guide. Non l'ho usato: pressione con l'unghia lungo il perimetro, click... a posto.Ci sono anche i due rettangoli di garza pesante nera con linguette laterali autoadesive per cambiare le "garze" che all'interno del padiglione coprono l'altoparlante della cuffia.Siccome li avevo già cambiati altre volte in 5 minuti li ho facilmente sostituiti entrambi.E poi che ho fatto? li ho subito ricomprati per utilizzo futuro. Sei stelle se ci fossero.Se tu là fuori hai una Bose AE1 Triport e la consideri importante vai sul sicuro e cambia i padiglioni con questi.

Dopo diversi anni di onorato servizio, era arrivato il momento di sostituire i cuscinetti auricolari delle mie cuffie Bose TP-1A. Ho effettuato una ricerca e poi acquistato questo modello. Devo ammettere che la qualità complessiva è piuttosto buona e la forma è delle giuste dimensioni, infatti l’inserimento nell’alloggiamento risulta piuttosto agevole.L’unico aspetto da migliorare è la qualità della spugna presente all’interno del cuscinetto, infatti quella originale era più morbida e avvolgente.All’interno della confezione, oltre ai 2 cuscinetti, ho trovato anche 2 copri-altoparlanti con fascia adesiva, una pezzetta in tessuto ed un accessorio in plastica utile per il fissaggio dei cuscinetti.
