Nothing wrong with the pads that came with my XM4’s but they did make my ears a bit hot. So, I looked at all the reviews and decided to try these replacement ear pads. I’m very happy with them: more comfortable and my ears don’t get as hot. No reduction in sound quality, noise cancelling, or operation of sensors. I have fairly large, odd shaped, ears from years of rugby abuse but these ear pads gave improved what was already a reasonably confortable headphone set. A bit of wind noise when I have on sunglasses but no worse, and possibly better than the originals. I like them and glad I bought them.

I bought these to replace my original XM4 earpads, which were heavily worn. Replacing the pads is very simple; just make sure you have a prying tool or butter knife to unlatch the old pads and clip the new ones in place. Compared to my worn-out pads, these are very comfortable. I can wear them for longer periods of time without ear pain. They do not appear to interfere with the sensor within the headphones to detect if they are removed. These also appear to have extra thickness compared to the stock pads. This is beneficial for comfort and longevity, but I believe it has some consequences. In terms of sound and ANC, despite what other reviews have said, it is important to know that these will not inherently improve quality. The thickness of the pads does actually add a nice bit of sound separation compared to the stock pads. But initially, I found the sound to be veiled and muddy. Additionally, I noticed ANC initially to be worse, with increased noise from higher frequency, wind noise and a sea-shell effect. However, after about five days, these qualities have improved as I adapted to the change of the sound signature, the pads have conformed more to the shape of my ear, and they have slightly compressed. Ultimately, if your XM4 earpads have lost their bounce and are flaking, these are a good replacement. Their price is in line (if not a tiny bit more expensive) with alternative brands. Just understand that you need to wear them in for a couple of days and that they'll not magically improve the sound or ANC of your headphones.

I was disheartened when the stock pads on my Sony xm4 started to go flat. They flattened so much that my ears started to touch the headphone drivers. I contacted Sony who said they’d replace them under warranty but I’d have to send them off and it’s take up to 6week turn around. I googled replacement pads and found the wicked cushions website. They seemed decent enough and at only £20 I thought it was worth a try. OH MY GOSH ARE THEY AWESOME. They are thick and plush giving a good distance from my ears. But nice and soft to give a snug fit. They don’t affect the effectiveness of the noise cancelling. The headphones are perfect again. The design is awesome and a nice change from the stock black. They were really easy to fit when you follow the instruction video on YouTube. Takes 2mins at most. They have a bigger padding than the original Sony pads were when I first got them. Nice and comfortable. I can’t comment on how well they will fair over time but a week in, I’m mega impressed and very happy with my purchase. In fact I bought 3 pairs in case I need more in future as a backup (and I see Amazon stock of these going fast). Buy them if your default xm4 pads have gone flat. You won’t regret it.

Very nice product. Comes with instructions in the bag. Good quality built. The synthetic material is a step down from the original sony supply vegan leather but it's not less comfortable on the ears and surprisingly feels less hot, which is a good thing. Their printed instructions and YouTube channel provide clear instructions which was nice. Easy peasy. The inner dimensions are slightly smaller than the original si if your ears were already tight you'll probably notice the small change, but they're thicker which is nice. CON: Subpar sound isolation compared to the original. Not sure whether due it's to the foam being more firm it's not sealing well or if sound is passing through the foam. If possible get original pads. The TLDR: Built Quality: 5/5 Comfort: 5/5 Sound isolation: 2/5 Ease of installation: 5/5

عزل الصوت ماهو مثل الاصليه ، الاصليه احسن بس هذي تعطيك مساحه للاذن بحيث انها ما تلمس السماعه من داخل

Jakość wykonania całkiem dobra, montaż prosty ale NC nie jest tak dobry jak w oryginalnych. Mimo wszystko jest w porządku.

Perfect

Fixed a Squealing issue in my XM4's. I had a high pitched noise coming out of my right speaker. Online forums said to replace the microphones, or headphone cups/cushions. So bought these. Easy to fit, 5 min job, corrected the issue with the headphones and they are like new now. Comfortable to wear and fixed the squealing. Very happy, would buy again.

It must be packed or manufactured way too old . The package was just simply send by slapping the adress on the package itself. Considering 1899 rs this was not meant to be received like that and no way its worth that much. Sellers discription include too much advertisement about the product quality. Yet it arrived with a torn stiches. After usage it's completely torn. (Pictures are provided). The quality, comfort of the product is actually not bad. Easy to install. Instructions are available in YT. And it is thick, comfy and identical to the original. Just feel like the product is just old. And this might be subjective and personal, I felt like noice cancellation ability was reduced a bit after these on. UPDATE! Wicked Cushions reached out to me through Amazon and offered a full refund under warranty, even months after my purchase and review. I was initially skeptical about their "refund if not satisfied" policy working in India, but they proved me wrong. Now I have my money back and decent earpads, despite the torn stitching. This experience shows how much they care about their customers. I vouch for them as a trustworthy, professional brand and highly recommend them.
