Premium replacement ear pad cushions praised for exceptional comfort and quality. Customers said they're "more comfortable than stock pads" with thick, plush cushioning ideal for extended gaming sessions. While some noted slight sound volume reduction and warmer feel, most found them breathable. Easy installation and superior comfort make them highly recommended.
- Phenomenally comfortable for all day usage, it's breathable and cool.
- Incredible balance between being soft on my ears, and not overheating.
- Great customer service and a high quality product. More comfortable than stock pads.
My old original ear pad cushions for my Steelseries Arctis Pro headphones were falling apart so I ordered these new "cooling" ones form CentralSound. While I wouldn't say they are keeping my ears cool, they are comfortable and well made. Well worth the purchase.
Just purchased them and they arrived before the estimated delivery time the look amazing installation was very simple and quick about under 5 minutes
On my ears they feel nice and comfortable made my headphones SteelSeries Arctis 3 sound more loud and clear bass are more punchy now
I own many headphones from SteelSeries , Sony , beats , house of Marley , monster dna
And central sound ear cushion are the best from all the one i try before never going to buy factory replacement ones will porches central sound for all my headphones when i need replacement
My only question is is your company has replacement ear cushion for Sony wh1000-xm3
If you do I might get one more pair in next 6 months
Very comfortable, slightly harder to hear now. Not a big deal!
Amazing product I keep coming back for. This is my 3rd pair for my 3rd pair of headphones. Phenomenally comfortable for all day usage, it's breathable and cool. Cannot recommend CentralSound enough.
Your third pair — now that's the kind of loyalty that truly means the world to us, thank you so much! 🙌 Knowing that you keep coming back is the greatest compliment we could ever receive. We're so glad the comfort and breathability have held up for all-day wear across all three pairs, and we promise we'll keep delivering the same quality you've come to expect. Thank you for the incredible recommendation — we can't wait to be there for pair number four!
Cushions feel great and were super easy to install.
Muffs ripped and would not go back on, ordered here, and these are better and more comfortable than the ones that come with the headset.
They made my Arctis headphones so comfy and useable. I love that they help extend the headset's life. I recommend them 100%.
Incredible balance between being soft on my ears, and not overheating. Been using them for a month now and noticed very little decay, and they feel even better than my old ear pads! I feel like I'm ripping the company off for how cheap it cost.
Great customer service and a high quality product. These are more comfortable than the stock pads.
Hello Nick,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's great to hear another headset has been revived.
I wasted time and money searching for the fake ones, but these are the extra thick pads you want. Best price I have found, would love to see different colors/styles, but the thickness is key. Not the false ones, they retain the comfort over long sessions and soft to the touch.
Hello Zachary,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's terrific to hear another headset has been revived and upgraded, CS style.
Not bad at all its a bit of a pain since the inner liner that links with the head set itself is soft it can be a struggle however the fit is significantly more comfortable tho where they do sit further out than the base ear cups you do have some sound volume loss still great product to be sure
Ear pad cushions are great, except the fact, that for this item, to get it outside the US, I had to pay 3x more than the price of item. I would suggest to expand a market to europe, cuz this is such a great idea and products.
I'm a glasses wearer, and the original Arctis 5 pads were very comfortable and soft. These replacement pads are actually cushier and more comfortable. These replacement pads are a little warmer, but I still game for hours without feeling that they are too hot. These pads actually accentuate bass frequencies a bit compared to the original ear pads. Definitely happy with this purchase! Also, the handwritten thank you note in the packaging was very welcome - amazing to see this type of thing now-a-days.
Super comfy and block out way more outside noise than the original earpads that come with the Arctic headsets. Definitely recommend!
Overall experience is amazing. No change for the sound quality (so far tried it only the dt 770 pro tbh) and the comfort is incredible I immediately threw the factory once since they didn’t age well and do not deal with heat/sweat in a good way. Also, was about to threw away my old-headset (arctic 5) did not find a good earcups replacement until saw your YT vid and tried it and no regrets (it actually solves the issue of the thin padding and mu ears hitting the drivers which is normal from factory but bad for the overall experience)
Thank you and I wish your business further success.

Very comfortable, my ears don't get squished like with the stock ones. I don't know how long the pleather will last though.
Gets a little warmer than the stock pads, but much more comfortable
They're all I was looking for!
These earpads are thick and plush. The small airholes on the inside do not look like they would do much at first, but they do help.
I have these and a pair of brainwavz for my steel series headset. After 2 years, I needed to replace my old brainwavz pads, so I reordered a pair, but also bought these for comparison.
The two are comparable and seem equally well made. The only difference being the airholes on the inside of these. I didn't think they would do much, but I've noticed that my ears stay slightly cooler during long sessions with the headset on. Not a major difference, but enough to notice.
Both sets of earpads are great; now I just hope these will last as long as the brainwavz.
They fit good and they are comfortable & noice cancelling works much better than on the originals. The only thing I don't like is that on lower volumes you can sometimes hear the internal material sound.. it's like a foam that you press together and then when it "opens" up again it makes a little sound. Other than that a really nice alternative to SteelSeries originals (y)
I purchased the Steelseries Arctis 1 Wireless headseat for studying and was barely able to enjoy them because the small ear pads made my ears hurt. I really enjoyed the sound of the headseat so I decided to keep them and try these replacement earpads. My ears don't hurt anymore!
They have more cushion than the originals, have a larger footprint (earprint?), and also make the sound seem more insulated. They were very easy to install as well. Love them!
Coming from using Hyper X Cloud 2's, I've felt oddly uncomfortable with the default earpads that come with the Arctis 7's. These do the job well - reduces background noise, music sounds warmer, and they're miles more comfortable because of the thick padding! Shipping took a bit long but isn't so bad overall.
It is a very good alternative, they fit perfectly in my steelseries arctis 7. It is of very good quality, I bought the leather version, but I would also like the hybrid version, maybe later I will also buy it
