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.

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!

[@Brownalicious]

I gotta check out those headphones! Great job

[@CurtisAlvaro]

appreciate chu bro

[@NARXOVERHERE]

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]

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.

​@@CurtisAlvaro I bougt the wicked cushions and they are fantastic, I had 3 diferent earpads and those are the best ones. The originals pinch your ears inside to mutch, they sound very good but not four hours and hours...

[@CurtisAlvaro]

@@ceuve1209 I think i saw those! Eventually I want something that cooler on the head - After even like couple hours I get hot and a lil sweaty wearing it for a while so I might look into those!. Thanks for that!

GREAT! THANK YOU!

[@theBassBurnout]

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

[@CurtisAlvaro]

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

[@lissabecconero1081]

Is this by chance also compatible with M20?

[@CurtisAlvaro]

They look similar in size but you'd have to check if it's compatible!

[@dzovis]

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..!

[@CurtisAlvaro]

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!

[@balob]

@@CurtisAlvaro i emailed them, the headband is $35 :/

[@Brianuuuu]

I appreciate the attempt at the all black aesthetics but I couldn't see a damn thing

[@CurtisAlvaro]

For sure, will fix for the next one. Will try some more ambient lighting in the next one!

[@SadboiJune]

They say not to remove the foam in the amazon page (5th picture) your installing them wrong by removing the foam.

[@CurtisAlvaro]

You're not wrong. The instructions from the box, step 4, asks you to remove the foam
