Technics RP-DJ1200 Replacement Ear Pads – Easy Fit
🎛️ Back in the Booth: Replacement Ear Pads for the Technics RP-DJ1200
Your Technics RP-DJ1200 is built to be worked hard, and its ear pads take the brunt of it: constant on-and-off wear, heat and sweat. When the cushions crack, flatten or turn rough, a fresh pair of ear pads (ear cushions) brings back the comfort and the clean look. These replacements are made of soft faux leather and fit without any tools.
Sold as a pair (left + right). A simple fix for the part that wears out first.

⭐ Why replace your Technics RP-DJ1200 ear pads
DJ headphones don't get an easy life. The ear pads (also called ear cushions or earpads) of your RP-DJ1200 are put on, slid aside and taken off over and over, while heat, sweat and skin oil work on the cover and the foam. Over time the surface turns rough or cracks and the cushioning flattens. They are a wear part, and they give out long before the drivers do.
Replacing only the worn part keeps a good pair of DJ headphones in service for a fraction of the price of new ones.

🎚️ In the booth, in the studio, every day

🎚️ In the studio
Long sessions: an even fit with no pressure points helps.

Fresh ear pads restore the contact around your ears. The headphones sit more steadily, and bass and passive isolation are better supported than with worn pads.
- Results vary with head shape, glasses and how you wear the headphones.
- Pad material and thickness can color the sound slightly, so small differences from your old pads are possible.
- Ear pads are wear parts and do not change the drivers, the cable or the electronics.
