  • I couldn't find any tutorial about this so this is how I replaced the headband pad for my Sennheiser HD700. (To be even safer, I should have removed the phones) I am glad I didn't break it though.
    There are serious chances you end up scratching/chipping the finis or even hurting yourself, so please do this carefully, and at your own risk.
    I hope it helps, though.

    This just walked me through how to do this - thank you so much.
    Only tidbit I wish I knew was a closeup of the two channels inside the headband. The lower channel is for the adjustment arms, the upper channel is for the headband pad itself. This confused me for 5-10 minutes before I figured it out. Need to be mindful to insert it back in the right channel(s).
    Still - thank you! this is great.

    Great! Been looking for a video on how to do this for a while, as I was a bit afraid for damaging some parts trying to replace my headband on the HD700, this video shows that it's not that hard after all, thanks!

    Hello, I tried the action 0: 20 ~ 0: 26, but even the stick was broken, and the

    Thank you for making this video, it was really helpful. I managed to replace the headband on my HD 700's but I managed to lose the little metal piece for the click adjustments. Do you happen to know where to get any replacements?

      Hi ! I'm sorry you lost this tiny piece. I am sorry I don't know if you can find it as a spare, However, I was wondering if you couldn't make it yourself by cutting it out from a metal can, with strong scissors ?

      On Mine, the velvet became sticky and started melting, leaving black tar marks on my head. As I couldn't find a replacement, I used sticky tape and ethanol to scrub and remove the velvet coating from the headband, just leaving the under fabric, and I'm now using it as is for 2 years now.

    Hi, did you get an official headband replacement or did you buy a third party replacement? I am trying to avoid paying $100 for a headband...

    • @vintagerider4301
      @vintagerider4301  5 лет назад +1

      Hello, in fact, the problem I had with my headband was the velvet melting and becoming sticky. I called Sennheiser Japan for a replacement and was told (August 2019) That "the Headband and headpad were discontinued, and only remains the existing supplies, overseas" (maybe in Germany). So as for my issue, I tried to remove the sticky melted velvet as much as possible using Gorilla tape, alcohol and was able to mostly get rid of it. (It's the pad I used in this video - You can see it doesn't have the velvet finish anymore) I will keep on using it as long as possible, but as some point I will probably look for a replacement on Aliexpress... $100 seems very expensive...

    These plastic clips are so dump, on the hd 650 its the same, instead of remove one screws you need to nearly break your 500-1000€ headphones, ridicolous

    • @vintagerider4301
      @vintagerider4301  4 года назад

      Yes, this design is definitely not user-friendly. And even though You you end up removing the headband without damage, they are no more available in some countries...
