Meliya Replacement Earpads for Bose QC35 & QC35 II - Comfortable Noise

In this review of the Meliya replacement earpads, the bottom line is simple: these cushions are for owners of Bose over-ear models who want to restore comfort and passive noise isolation without replacing the entire headset. The reviewer found the soft protein leather and high-density memory foam reproduce the original fit and seal closely, making long listening sessions easier and helping reduce outside noise. Installation is straightforward with the included dustproof mats and plastic stick, and the pads retain the headphone sound signature while improving wearing comfort.

Key Features

• Wide Compatibility: Works with Bose QC35 I, QC35 II, QC25, QC15, QC2, Ae2 series and SoundTrue and SoundLink around-ear models, so most older Bose over-ear sets are covered.
• Premium Protein Leather: The surface material is soft and skin-friendly, giving a comfortable feel that closely matches original pads.
• High-density Memory Foam: Thick, resilient foam restores the cushion profile and maintains a good seal for passive noise isolation and consistent sound.
• Included Accessories: A pair of dustproof mats and a plastic removal/installation stick are supplied to make swapping pads quick and cleaner for the headphone cups.
• Sound Preservation: The foam blocks external noise while preserving the headphones original tonal balance, avoiding noticeable loss of audio quality.

Who It's For

These replacement earpads are best for someone who already owns compatible Bose over-ear headphones and needs a comfortable, like-for-like repair to worn or flattened pads. They are particularly useful for commuters, frequent travelers, and anyone who uses QC35 or similar models daily and wants to extend the life of the headset.

Shoppers who want active noise cancellation upgrades, custom upholstery, or pads for non-listed models should look elsewhere; this set focuses on restoring the original fit and passive isolation rather than changing acoustic tuning or adding electronics.
