Introduction

Through constant usage, the climate, or human bodily fluids, the ear cushions of headphones begin to wear out and get damaged. This guide will go through step-by-step instructions on how to replace your worn out ear pads with new sturdy ones on your Beats Studio 3. You will not need many tools, but you will need patience and understand that rushing this procedure will lead to undesirable results. Lastly, never use force! Although the piece we are replacing today is made up of cushion, it is attached to plastic, metal, and technology that gives you the brilliant sound you love. So be gentle!

    • Remove the sticker on the new pair of cushions to reveal the adhesive by pulling on the red tab to the side.

    • Do not touch the adhesive ring or lay it on a surface facing downwards. This could cause the adhesive to obtain fingerprints or, collect dust which could make it less effective at attaching to your headphones.
