Are these pads originals? I got a pair a few months and they dont feel the same and they are falling apart.

As far as I know they are, I have had my replacements on for several months and have had no issues with them whatsoever. They are holding up great.

No, they are not. We ended up buying the real thing directly from the Sony site because these just didn't work.

Don't understand your question, 'Have these pads back to normal'? What exactly do you want to know? I thought the pads were great.

i just checked mine. They are holding up great, foam padded. No tears or thread unraveling.

They might have changed the pads on them. I ordered mine on July 25th, 2012, they might have changed them sometime since then. It's a welcome change, I would gladly take the velours over the vinyl pads. Try emailing a few of the sellers, they might give you more info about them. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

I purchased replacement pads for these at a very reasonable price compared to the JVC replacement pads. They have a little less foam padding but the fit is good. I can't attest to how long they will last but at $3.50 per pad and shipping cost of $5.05, I only spent $12.05 for two pads.

Hello!These pads just come by themselves, already sticky. They usually last for around a few months with me. If they start not sticking, all you have to do is rinse the pad underneath cold water, and let them air dry. They will be really sticky again.They will wear out eventually, but this method works for a long time. =)

10 yrs on my QC2's still work well on the SFO - ICN run. Sweat is not a problem but they can be uncomfortable when you fall asleep on your side. My pads lasted 5 yrs and then the surface started to flake away. It seemed like I had black dandruff... Replacement pads are pricey but cheap versions are available (I can't vouch for the quality)

I think they're fake because I found my originals. They don't sound the same.

I have used the replacement foot pads in my pool and Baracuda G3. They work OK but seem to wear faster than the original parts did. They don't seem to hang up any more frequent that the originals did. I will probably continue to use them as the price is much lower.

No. Pads should be identical. Circular and identical thickness. If your pads are different they may have been a persons failed attempt at modding so they returned them.

yes they are original pads, the other pads are earth scent as far as I know only 2 kinds

I doubt it, they seem to be Chinese copies of a great American product. As for mine they've been great and have been for a long time and very inexpensive compared to American sold ones being still being made over seas and only being QAed by the American companies. At the price you are getting them for I'd by another pair and still be well under the costs of companies here. This being said I've gotten some that have sucked and these ones to my experience haven't.

Yes. The Sintered Pads I ordered (shipped and sold by Amazon.com) were genuine. Same as what I purchased from a LBS that was an authorized AVID dealer.

I'm afraid that I don't know where replacement pads can be acquired. I can only recommend buying another headphone, which seems like a waste if the ones you have still work well. Good luck!
