Cool replacements

Fit is much better than stock pads. The thicker padding works well with my large ears and they are comfortable for hours of gaming. Isolation is pretty good. Fitment is perfect. Installation was easy and the seams end up on the bottom and are barely noticeable anyway. Being able to select from different color designs is a nice feature, too.

I love these, comfortable and thicker than the original ones. I had to replace the original pads that came with my headset because they literally ripped apart after 2 years of minimal use. these new wicked cushions ones are both stylish and comfortable, I really like the cool feel and I've been playing for more than 4 hrs without any complains. I really recommend them and been loving them so far.
Phill D.
changed the fix of my headset slightly and it doesnt sit has well has before. but on the plus side no more ears against the inside of the headset so wearing the headset for lond periods of time is easier.
Robert C.
Extremely easy to put on and Extremely comfortable, very satisfied with this purchase and company, I'll gladly recommend to anyone I can
Brendan S.
The ear pads are great, though because they are thicker than the original they don’t quite sit flat on the sides of my head. The top half that makes contact above my ear is rigid enough that the lower half is raised slightly and lets some outside noise in.
Joseph B.
They're great! Amazing cushion, great cooling, and it even controls the sound better then the stock cushions!
E H.
I wasn’t sure if I should believe the hype and reviews, but this is the real deal and much better than the stock earpads from Corsair. Corsair should be ashamed at the quality they release for the price of their headset
A B.
Fast shipping, great customer support, and the cushions are durable and stay cool? Couldn’t ask for a better idea experience. Add in a one year warranty if the cushions break, and you’ve got a winner on your hands!

I'm still trying them out to see if it's maybe a little too heavy but I've been getting headaches using them lately. They seem a bit heavier than the last but I didn't think it would be enough to put an ache in my neck but it might be. Aside from that I do like the cooling gel and they are pretty comfortable in short periods.
Matt
These are great. The original Corsair cushions were a little shallow and I had some ear pain because my big ears pressed up against the plastic. These totally fixed that. They’re also more comfortable and more sound isolating. 100% worth it.
Brandon K.
Easy install. Fast shipping. Super comfortable. I love them.
Harry T.
Great replacement for the stock cushions, make the headset sound surprisingly clearer too
Dylan S.
It was a wonderful shopping experience and the owner was more than amazing!!!
Jeremiah B.
Great alternative to the original cushions. Keeps my ears off the inside of the cup, which was giving me headaches. Good sound insulation, too.
Elliott M.
Left is the original pad, right is the new one. they fit amazingly, my ears have no issues touching the inside speakers like the old ones and they new ones are extremely comfortable. I also have no issue whatsoever wearing them for extended periods. They do make the headset appear wider but that is no issue at all to me.
Kevin E.
Amazing made my headsets so much more comfortable these are a must have
David S.
Great fit, comfortable and much thicker than the basic earmuffs they come with.
James A.
So much better than the stock ones. Worth every penny
Marcio G.
Order from Portugal, the time to arrive was a bit long but well worth, the cousins are top and confortable, when i needed more ill will buy again, thx

I purchased these as a replacement for the stock earcups on my Corsair Virtuoso XT headset.
Pros:
- Very good build quality. Robust, good materials.
- Cloth material on part of cup that contacts ear is significantly more comfortable than fake leather on the originals.
- Thicker ear cups prevent ears from contacting the driver surface. Positive change.
Cons:
- The entire headset is clearly originally designed with the default thinner earcups in mind. Thicker ear pads, while more comfortable generally, also push the headset 'wider' and further out from the head. This is something of an issue because the original headset already had very little clamping force from the ear cups and most of the 'support' was in the form of the headset's weight resting on the band across the top of the head. Forcing the ear cups wider with a thicker pad seems to exacerbate this problem, increasing the pressure I feel of the headband on the top of my head, causes a mild ache after some time worn.
- Secondary issue with the thicker ear pads is that having the wider cup material at the top part of the ear also causes the ear cup to push further out at the bottom of the ear, thus having less tight of a fit at the bottom. This results in the bottom of the ear cup 'flaring' out and away from my ear/neck a slight amount compared to the top of the cup, which means there's a somewhat uneven fit around my ears, with the top part of the cup being a closer fit than the bottom. This renders the 'seal' around the bottom of the ear cup noticeably less firm and causes more noise leakage around the bottom of the ear cups.
Overall rating: 7/10

Arrived quicker than expected. I use my headphones on and off work, the comfort of these for me is next level.
Justin H.
100 x’s more comfortable than stock, looks 100 x’s better also. Shipping was super quick, about 3 days from order. Will definitely order more for any headset I get in the future.
Binh V.
Absolutely fantastic product and customer service!
ANC mics inside the headset were making my headset hard to use so I had to hop on these as soon as I found out about them. Postal service lost my package and Carla with customer service was quick to respond and was able to have a new set shipped shortly after. I've used Wicked Cushions in the past with my Corsair Virtuosos and I knew I would love these. The cooling and extra spacing makes my Nova Pro's feel like a totally different headset. 10/10 would recommend.
Don S.
They are very comfortable. They start out cool but don't stay that way. That being said they are 100% better than the ones that came on the headset.
Sam M.
These feel much better than the stock pads and the extra space keeps my ears from pressing against the speakers.
Kyle G.
Took like 2 days to get used to but now that I have these are such a comfortable fit. Altho sometimes they don't go over my ears right and I have to adjust but once they're on. They're on good
Alex R.
These are nicer than the standard virtuoso ones. After a week or two they started to get really smelly and they got to flat that my ears actually hurt from the drivers pressing in. I got Wicked Cushions for other devices so I got these with some confidence.
The Cushions were easy to install and actually felt a little better to put on than the Corsair ones.
Now several months in the cushions are still firm and comfortable. HOWEVER, the seam between the faux leather and the outer ring has been tearing slowly exposing the inside foam. It's pretty bad quality wise and I might actually look elsewhere next time to find a better quality pair.
Ashe P.
Comfy, Soft, Durable. What more is there to say.
Gavin G.
Very comfy! I’ve had no breaking or tearing yet! Installation was incredibly easy for the Corsair Virtuoso. Thanks for a quality product.
Paul
While these perfectly fit the Corsair Virtuoso SE Wireless Headset's ear cushion locking mechanism, the cushions are much thicker than the stock ones. Big headed users beware!
Bruno A.
At first I was very worried these pads would be to big for the headset.
Since my original Pads were worn, out I had to buy new ones regardless.
After receiving the package in my mail, I was very surprised of the nice packaging.
They were very easy to install and in the beginning I had problems setting up the height of the headset to fit it correctly around my ears. After 2 weeks of usage, I found the perfect measurements and now they sit perfectly around my ears and get the job done! :)
Jose C.
They are very comfortable
Julien P.
Very good Customer Service, very fast shipment - also to europe!!!
And the Best replacement Cushions you can get! (:
Dennis
Fit great feels great. Great successes
Jake E.
Absolutely love these ear cups. They’re slightly bigger than stock ear cups on my virtuoso se and they fit my ears great. They look sick and actually keep my ears cooler than the stock ear cups. Ridiculously comfy on top of it all. So happy I found these!
Daniel H.
Made my virtuoso extremely comfortable the extra mm on the cushioning makes all the difference!
Tylor P.
Great product! Love the execution as far as the materials and thought process behind making something that wasn’t designed well in the first place to a MAJOR upgrade! Would love to work with you guys in the future! -Sincerely TyR3cks
Tyler D.
Awesome! They fit very well, a lot more support than the original Corsair Virtuoso EarPad’s have, and they look great too!
Juan G.
They are noticeably more comfortable than the original ones. Throw in the personal touch of a design and they just make the headphones look better. The cooling technology is amazing, something I didn't know I needed, glad I went for it. Not to mention the speed at which these got to my house, plus the personal touch from customer service.
Would definitely buy again.
Albert K.
Totally works!! It's really cushiony just the way I like it (compared to my last original ones that werent). Now I definitely have a place to get some more if I need them in the future..
Max R.
My left ear would often touch the driver of the left can with my headsets original foam pads. These pads give them enough space to avoid that annoying rubbing. They're softer and better fit to my head/ears and I can wear them for several hours longer without getting too hot.
Kalob B.
They have made my headset a million times better! Thank you WC
christopher n.
its not breathable and my ears get really hot under the pads
Manuel D.
They were a huge upgrade from the pads the headset came with. The material was comfortable and very cool compared to the originals. Definitely worth the purchase!
Trenton S.
Good cushions. The original Corsair ones feel horrible and split at the seems. These are pretty comfortable and I don’t really see them breaking anytime soon.
Ficher S.
I’m not much of a review person, but I had to write one for these. Absolutely blew the stock ear cups out of the water, these things are so dang comfy. Also much better at keeping cool, I wear this headset for hours on end for work and never have to take them off because of discomfort, definitely could not say the same about the cushions that originally came with the headset. Will be recommending these to all of my friends!

I bought the T-Pain edition XT's about 10 months ago. Having read all the reviews on them, I knew there was a good chance I wouldn't like the fit n' feel of them. When I got them, my excitement quickly died as I realized the fit of the stock ear pads was even worse than the worst case scenario I had imagined when pulling the trigger. Not wanting to bother with the return process, I just set them aside and didn't use them at all.
Fast forward to mid August and I decided to start looking into options to make them more comfortable. I stumbled across a YT video showcasing Wicked Cushions replacement ear pads. The guy was using them on a pair of XT's and raved about how much better they made the headset feel and sound. The next video I watched was a guy breaking down the advanced connection/multi connection capabilities of the headset which really sets it apart from the competition (which is what attracted me to them in the first place) and sure enough, I saw the guy had a pair of what looked like Wicked Cushions on them. Turned out they were Wicked Cushions and this guy also raved about them and about how much of a necessity changing out the stock pads on the XT really is. That was enough for me, I ordered a pair of the Black Camo pads since I love shade camo and nothing else really matches with the Blue on the T-Pain edition XT's.
When they arrived, I was pleased with the packaging and the ease of install. When I put the headset on my head with the Wicked Gel Cushions on them, I couldn't believe the difference in comfort - it was almost night and day! The seal on my ears is also much improved over the stock pads, which leads to much better sound (though not perfect since the XT's have such a weak clamp force).
I went with the gel version and just like any cooling gel product it does cool your ears initially - keep in mind all cooling gel heats up though, so once the gel heats up on these pads, they won't feel cool anymore (that is normal). So while the cooling is kind of a dimishing return situation the longer that you wear them in a single session, the extra bit of sound iso that it provides makes it well worth the little bit extra cost imo.
All in all, I am very pleased with my purchase and am happy to state that Wicked Cushions took the "pain" out of using my T-Pain XT's
I would recommend to anyone running stock pad on their XT's - thank you Wicked Cushions!

Cushions are a lil thick and hard to break in. Virtuoso purchase so be mindful, despite the size they are quite comfy. Wear and tear has already started on the inner ear there are some strings that are starting to show after only a month.
SEAN S.
Love these cushions. They keep my ears from touching the speakers and it takes a really long time for them to heat up on my head. Even once the do heat up I'm not sweating like I was with the stock ones. I accidentally stabbed them with my glasses when I was wearing them and put my glasses on and it didn't leave a mark or anything. (my previous pair of ear pads got ruined because the glasses just stabbed right through the material and left a hole)
Stephen P.
I am really liking them they are comfortable and keeps my ears cool.
Andrew O.
I love the feel of these cushions for the Virtuoso by Corsair as they make it comfortable (was actually looking at replacing the headset until I found these).
Would appreciate wider selection of colors but that's nitpicky.
Huge step up
Shawn H.
So much more comfortable than the stock ear set that comes with the headset. My right ear would start to ache after a while of wearing the headset. Now nothing, I am very impressed with the headset and these made them 10x better in my opinion.
Manny
Virtuoso is a great headset except that it is one of the most uncomfortable headset I have ever used. I play games in excess of 5-8hrs continuously sometimes and it was down right painful. So happy with the upgrade and the pain is gone! Sound is much better through isolation, and no more sweaty ears. Just look at the difference with my original pads that were pancaked after 1 year of use. So happy I'm ordering a second and third set to give some flavor.
Cane
They are super comfortable. I live in Texas and it was during the heat wave that I got these, so they were great during that.
They don't tend to like to stay locked in place so maybe recalibrate the fasteners, but thats just maybe my model could be the issue
Uses: Gaming and music, mainly.
Jeffrey v.
Very comfy. Doesn't overheat my ears. Doesn't negatively impact the sound quality. Looks flashy because nobody's going to assume that black headphones have pink cushions by default. Can't say anything negative about the product itself.
Only the shipping costs might be a lot depending on where you live. Even though I'm extremely happy with these, I would be hesitant to purchase these again as the original price of these cushions was 31 euros and the shipping costs were 12 euros which is a little too extreme to be honest.
Filipe V.
10/10 would buy again!
Ardian M.
Nice simple packaging easy to install and the cushions were without a doubt way more comfy and breathable then the stock ones on the Corsair virtuoso XT
Gregory E.
Very good quality ear cups, feel like they are built to last
Joey B.
Comfortable and cool. What else could you ask for.
Ozaer K.
They are very comfy, however don’t buy the ones with cooling gel. The cooling gel doesn’t seem to make a difference the earmuffs still get hot. Doesn’t seem worth the price difference
Michael S.
The only thing I'm going to say that these are way better than the stock earpads and makes them feel more premium. Love you wicked cushions and keep up the good work
Jose R.
Love these! I was hesitant at first but with the stock earpads feeling super warm after barely 2 hours of using them. With these new ones? Let Me Tell You why these are such a good purchase!
1st, they are thicker than the stock earpads, and a whole lot more comfortable.
2nd, I plaid last night for roughly 5 hours, and did I feel my ears and the earpads super warm? Not at all! They actually kept pretty good to be fair, and again. Super comfortable earpads.
I want to also point out the customer service. Had a little hiccup with tracking the order to which I reached out, and in no less than 8 hours of having reached, maybe even sooner(I had to go to sleep) I had already gotten a resolution to the hiccup.
So, good product, feels super nice to the point I wanna keep them on. And customer service was awesome. So yes this gets 5 stars from me.
JAMES P.
Definitely an upgrade from the stock cushions. The most notable of which are that my ears get less hot after 2-4 hrs, and my ears no longer touch the driver.
Arnaldo Z.
Really comfortable and fit my ears perfectly.
Lance L.
Love these cushions! They feel so much better than stock! Cooler and thicker for sure!
Lance L.
These are amazing! Very comfortable for extended time use. And really do feel cooler and lighter on the ear!
Tanveer R.
Great product. Good quality and very easy to install. Much better than the original ear pads that come with the headset.
Frank A.
Much better than the stock Corsair cushions thanks guys
george t.
My new Wicked Cushions received & installed without issue. I love the new cushions. My headset now fits my head better than it did brand new. My friend turned me onto this corsair headset a year or so ago because he had them. Funny enough his oem cushions lasted about as long as mine did. He was in the market for a new headset when I told him my oem cushions were falling apart. Upon receiving and installing them I immediately recommended your product to him. A 30$ fix for a 200$+ headset is a no brainer and the form and fit is an improvement to the original product. Thank you for a wonderful online experience and a great product.
sincerely,
G. Trautlein
Matthew M.
Very comfortable and much better than the stock earpads to be honest. Giving 5/5 only wish they had a little more noise surpression, but that may not be possible with this type of material! Will buy again when there are more colors.
Brandon H.
I can gaming longer and enjoy listening to music without ear fatigue
Brad E.
I use them for gaming and lite music and movies.
No complaints here. I've purchased hybrids before for a pair of M50X and was impressed by how they were actually cooling compared to the stock pads and it's the same story here.
I would have one suggestion, although it's of no fault to WC. For those of us Americans who are larger than the average male bear, I have the size adjustment maxed out. The extra thickness of the pads is the greatest thing since the stock pads are so shallow. And I'm sure your designers came across this, but at max adjustment the bottoms of the pads flare outwards . I think a good idea would be to sacrifice a small amount of padding at the top of the pad to compensate for the flare out at max size. Again, it's not wickeds fault, but Corsairs because I can't extend the size just a TAD more.
Materials are great, no complaints there. Instructions were helpful in installation bc I had initially done it upside down. Still though, the pros SIGNIFICANTLY outweigh the small con that is of no fault to you guys. I've already recommended them to friends with Virtuosos.
Stefan F.
The product is quite good, but the nice seeming approachable customer service is fake.
When I actually wrote an email to ask if two orders can be merged into one shipment, they never ever responded.
"If you have any questions, just reply to this email..." forget that, they wont.
Cameron T.
Super satisfied and they are exactly what I had in mind. Highly recommend for anyone who needs to replace those tiny stock Virtuoso cushions
