IF IT AIN'T BROKE:
In my case, these have been the best headphones I've ever invested in and I don't plan to resell if anytime soon since to me: best quality for the value! Even though this model is discontinued, it still holds its value and does the job as the newer models as well!
There are other headbands out there, you think I got the right color and band?

Thank you for this. These too are my favorite headphones. Mine finally showed a lot of wear on the headband and needed replacement after 10 years. Will share this on the Amazon page. I am sure more people would love a video guide over the manual.

I think so too! I did have to reference the document a couple of times hehe. Thanks so much for the support!

Feedback/Suggestion: Please don't use black background to showcase black objects, it defies the purpose of your video. Make sure there is a good contrast to clearly show the thing you want to show.

OMG I was hoping a product like this would come out at some point, or maybe I was just not looking hard enough.. It's only 17GBP here in UK too! I hope they last a fair amount of time, hopefully I can use my headphones for many more year to come, without needing a new pair or without using those stupid zip-up cover things..!

Its a nice "fixer upper" for sure. I'm not mad either that its missing the audio technica branding on the headband so it looks clean!

On the amazon page, their instruction is not to remove foam but then their installation video they removed the foam...lol. I'm ordering one now and decide later whether to leave the foam or not.

@CurtisAlvaro Ай бұрын

Correct! The version 1 of the restoration doesn't have it removed. This was the version they sent(even though on amazon it's v1) and says to remove. I tried to keep it and it was tight fit. Might be doable to keep it on

bro, why velcro? if I pull it and it's already in. lol. why did they choose this. thanks for the video bro!

I know right! - could just be for production and $$ tbh. Thanks for the comment!

LOL , you have to remove yellow foam to install this , The instruction video of this product on amazon didn't show that part so your video is a safe man . Can i ask does it feel less comfortable when remove that yellow foam ?? thank you

@CurtisAlvaro 3 ай бұрын

Yeh when I got them from Amazon it was v2. The v2 instructions show to remove the yellow foam but the amazon link isn't updated and there is a thin included foam with v2. Its maybe a little less comfy but I don't notice a huge difference since the tightness I feel comes more from the Earcups. I actually tried before removing the yellow foam, since I thought i was tripping, to keep it in and then attach the new strap but it wouldn't wrap around properly.
