Are the ear cups replaceable ? Do they disintegrate or lose their thickness over time?

All parts are replaceable. Not seen any disintegration as yet on this headset. On my Bose QC15's noise cancelling headphones, however, which are 10 years old now, I did have to replace the cups on them after they went a bit fuzzy, as did the headband which can not be replaced. The headband on the A20 headset is not the same material and can be replaced. I can say that I am more than happy with the A20 headset since purchase in July.

No. This is the last headset you will ever buy. Yes they are replaceable , I doubt that you will ever have to.

Yes they are replaceable, $29.95 from Bose. I can't tell you how long they hold up though, I'm a student pilot so mine haven't seen a ton of use yet.

They are not replaceable. I believe the company is out of business. I had 2 of them go bad

I use the headphones for hours everyday and have never had to replace the covers but I have had to replace the headphones a few times over the years as one side will quit working but that's common with most styles I've tried.

I use the headphones at least five days a week. So far I have not needed to replace the covers. The covers show no sign of wear after six months.

The batteries are replaceable... but I would check with your vet before using on a dogs ears as this is made for a human ear which might be sturdier than a dogs ear as well as other issues that only your vet might know... good luck!

The headphone basic ear insert structure has not broken down. The rubber ear plug that is placed over the basic earphone structure has broken down like ALL rubber ear plugs break down over time.

They do not appear to be replaceable. Mine show little wear from pushing of logs and shore. The plastic is pretty tough.

Yes they are thicker by about 5mm, I think the internal cup is slightly smaller in diameter if your ears fit inside the old cups as opposed to sitting over the ear.

Yes because nothing is made of plastic except for the wire. Also wire, and magnetic leather ear pads are replaceable. You can just do a fax order for them through Bowers & Wilkins. Basically you get what you pay for compared to Bose and Beats because you are just paying for the marketing and technology, but materials used are cheap not durable.

If you're referring to the plastic sleeves, they come off for cleaning purposes or to put on a different size. If you're referring to the earbuds, then they're broken. :-)

I am not sure. I found that the "clip" part that wraps around the ear, comes off the "stem" part that wraps around the ear bud stem. They are a silicone type material so are flexible and less apt to "break". I would like them better if they didnt have to be assembled but instead came as one unit to clip on the ear-bud.

I have had mine (original version) since Feb 2014...I've never had an issue of losing a part or breaking...they still work just fine. I may try the new version just because they say it's softer. I do have one the kinda hurts a bit. But one out of three ain't bad!

I have no idea. I haven't checked into the aspect of replacement parts. My husband has had no problem with the ear pieces, thus far. I'm sorry I could not be of any help to you.

I don't believe you can replace them. They appear to be built in to the headphone. The only way possible to do so would be to completely take apart the headphone

I've had mine for about 6 months now, using them about every day, and thus far the only thing that has shown any wear is the leather-esque ear padding, which has started to gently loosen. This is a very insignificant thing to me, though if you intend on putting substantial wear on your set, it could lead to the material coming loose. That, however, is why I would deem these headphones as something that should not be out and about too much; an amazing at home/studio pair of headphones, not a pair to wear while dirt biking.

I've had mine for about a year. The outer part of the headband is pristine. The inner part and cups have a little wear, but for the most part can be wiped clean with a damp rag. (I actually dyed my hair at one point and turned the band slightly turquoise, but was able to just wipe it off and now you can't tell.) Very impressed with how well these have held up. I put them in the travel pouch when I take them to work every day.

The ear cups are covered in a very comfortable soft cloth like foam. I'm not familiar if the batteries are replaceable or not you just set the headset back on the charger station. The charge last a very long time.
