Is this HPAEC840 ear cushion as soft as BOSE QC15 ear pad ? Or the AE2 series?

I have no idea how it compares to Bose products; I haven't used Bose headphones. I do feel it isn't quite as soft as the one that come with Sony MDR 7506, but it is still very comfortable. Two of our DJ's have used these as replacements for the OEM pads on Sony MDR7506's and they have been very satisfied with them.

I do not know. I bought the pads on the hope they would fit some very old Sennheiser headphones. And they did. The pads are very soft.

I'm not familiar with those pads, but these are stupid soft with a nice fuzzy texture to make your ears feel like they are enclosed by thier own private sound pillows.

It's ok, about average among mid-quality active noise canceling headphones. Bose QC15's are a revelation, however. They are far superior to anything else available. Well worth the price.

The AE2w headphone are 'wireless' so I'm not sure why you would need the cable for the Bose Quietcomfort 15s. Perhaps you can describe your concerns in more detail.

Very uncomfortable. The headband hurts because the cushion is too thin. I can feel the two plastic bars behind the cushioning. I bought some headband cushions from Sennheiser and attached them to the Shure 440 with some zip ties. The ear pads are terrible as well due to the lack of cushioning. I would recommend buying the SRH840 ear pads which fit on the Shure 440 headphones.

I have a Sennheiser HD598, which with a similar price to this Bose QC15. It seems that HD598 has a wider sound and more high-frequency sound. I prefer the cable of Bose because HD598's cable is too long and a bit heavy to carry. Anyway, both headphone are in perfect quality and I will use them in different condition (e.g. Bose outside the door or on the traffic, HD598 in room. ^_^

I find these as comfortable as previous Shure SE's. I used my 315s the most, and on flights I could sleep in them. The 846 are a little bigger, but fit in the ear the same. I only kept the 535s for about 2 weeks before I got rid of them, however the fit felt the same as the 315s. I would say, if you don't get on with the 535 fit, then you probably would not get on with the 846. Try and find somebody who can provide you with a demo pair. I struggled to find anybody who could provide a demo in the UK. However, stumbled across a store called InMotion whilst in Atlanta air port who had a demo pair. If you are spending the best part of £1000 on iems, you want them to feel comfortable. I find these as comfortable as previous Shure SE's.

Sorry to hear you are having an issue. You might try a different type of pad. These headphones are great, but I also find them uncomfortable even with the foam. You might try the Koss headphones if these don't work for you. Good Luck!

I have both and I used the new 20i last week in the plane. In my opinion QC 15 is better in noise cancelling but I like the 20i to carry around. I used 20i in the bus and in the car with IPHONE listing music and I like it. Quality QC 15 is better in the plane but to carry around I like 20i

I bought this one for $8.99 and although it is not a perfect fit I am happy with it: Bluecell Replacement Earpad Ear Cover Pad for Audio Technica ATH-SJ3/ATH-SJ5/ATH-ES7/CRESYN HP500/ELECOM CL430/SONY MDR-V150 Professional Headphone (7x7CM)$

They are "over the ear". They are comfortable, but I don't know about comfort of the QC-15.

In all honesty I have no idea what, exactly, AE2's are. I used these on my QuietComfort headphones and they are fine. Not quite as well made as the Bose originals but good quality and fit pretty well. Certainly worth the price paid and were delivered very quickly.

Though I have never measured them, I would say they are about the same. Threw the old pads in the trash, they were rotted. These Beyer pads are so comfortable (think fluffy pillows) and they are not sweaty like the old pads. Sound is the same to me.

I know nothing about the QC-15. I can say the audio quality of the Bose A20 is supreme! I play music through my intercom & ipod, also make phone calls with the Blue Tooth feature of the A20. The audio is the best I've ever had while killing all of the back-round noise in the Long-Eze (Experimentals have typically very loud ambient cockpits and the A20s are saving my hearing, no doubt).

I tried both. The Bose QC20 is definitely better, but it is also 2 1/2 times the price.

I'm not familiar with that brand and model headphones, but I would doubt seriously it would work. I would suggest not buying this product because it is specifically designed to fit Bose QC2, QC15 and QC25 models headphones.

I own both the QC-15 and the A20. Sound quality from both very similar, however the A20 is better at reducingoutside aircraft noise. A microphone adaptor from Ufly Mike allows the QC-15 to be used as an aviation headset.
