Made a big difference
- By Steven Douglas Webster from Collinsville MS USA on Tuesday, August 13, 2024
- Pros: Comfortable and quiet
- Review: I've had two Bose A20 Headsets for several years now and I didn't know that you were supposed to change the ear cushions every 6 months or so. Wow, did it make a difference. The old ear cushions were starting to degrade which was why I looked to replace them, but the new ones are so much quieter and comfortable that it was like having a new set of headphones.

Definitely what was needed.
- By Stephen from Fredericksburg TX USA on Tuesday, April 12, 2022
- Pros: Worked as expected.
- Review: I was starting to get bits of black rubber around my ears after wearing my headphones. After doing some research, it became apparent the pads need replaced every few years or so. I had to Youtube how best to replace the pads but it turned out to be easy with no tools required -- just a little fiddly. Problem solved and as an added bonus, they feel better and are quieter (because they are squished down as much as the old ones).
