Quick Answer
MG20 Ear Pads are model-specific, so use MG20 pads rather than pads made for another headphone. They attach magnetically, so swapping or removing them takes seconds. Clean them gently with a soft damp cloth, let them air dry fully, and replace them when the lambskin or foam starts to crack, flatten, or flake.
MG20 Ear Pads
MG20 owners tend to ask the same handful of questions: will these pads fit my headphones, how do I take them off, and how do I keep the lambskin from wearing out too fast. This FAQ answers those directly, with the practical details that matter day to day.
Everything below is based on the MG20 Ear Pads themselves and the way they attach. Where a detail is not published, such as an exact replacement interval, you will see that called out instead of a guess.
Will MG20 Ear Pads fit my headphones?
MG20 Ear Pads are designed for the MG20, and fit is not universal across models. Pads made for a different headphone may look similar in photos but differ in the mounting ring, cushion depth, and opening size, which affects both comfort and how the sound reaches your ear. If you own an MG20, the MG20 pad is the correct part.
If you are unsure which model you have, check the inside of the headband or the original packaging before ordering. Buying the wrong pad is the most common reason people end up with a loose or poorly sealing cushion.
- Match the pad to the model name, not to the photo.
- A pad that does not sit flush usually means the wrong model, not a defective pad.
How do I remove and reattach MG20 Ear Pads?
Removal is tool-free. Gently pull the ear pad off the headphone and the magnets release. There is no adhesive and no twisting required, so you can take a pad off for cleaning or replacement without risking the frame.
To reattach, line the pad up with the earcup and let the magnets pull it into place. Give it a light press around the edge to confirm it is seated evenly. If one side feels raised, lift the pad and reseat it rather than forcing it down.
- Pull straight off; do not pry with a tool.
- A soft click or firm seat means the magnets have engaged.
How should I clean MG20 Ear Pads?
MG20 Ear Pads are lambskin-wrapped memory foam, so treat them like leather rather than fabric. Wipe the surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth and mild soap if needed, then let them air dry completely before putting them back on the headphones. Avoid soaking them, machine washing, or using alcohol-heavy cleaners, which can dry out and crack the lambskin.
Because the pads are magnetic, you can remove them first and clean the earcup area underneath at the same time. That keeps debris from collecting between the pad and the housing.
- Damp cloth, not a wet sponge.
- Air dry fully before reattaching.
- Skip harsh solvents and abrasive scrubbing.
When should I replace MG20 Ear Pads?
Replace them when the lambskin shows visible cracking or flaking, when the memory foam stays compressed after you take the headphones off, or when the pad no longer seals against your head. Any of those changes affects comfort first and sound isolation second, since a poor seal lets outside noise in and reduces bass response.
There is no fixed replacement schedule, because wear depends on how often you wear them, how much you sweat, and how you store them. Inspect the pads every few months and replace them as soon as the surface starts to break down.
- Cracking, flaking, or a flat cushion are the clearest signals.
- A pad that will not stay seated after reseating should be replaced.
Can I change the look of my MG20 with different pads?
Yes. MG20 Ear Pads are available in multiple colors, and because they are removable, swapping them is a straightforward way to personalize the headphones. That is also useful if you want one set for daily wear and another for travel or a different look.
The magnets make the swap quick, so you are not committing to one color permanently. Just keep spare pads clean and dry so they are ready when you want them.
- Color options let you refresh the look without new headphones.
- Store spare pads away from heat and direct sun.
Do I need any other MG20 accessories?
The main accessory most MG20 owners need is a spare set of ear pads. Beyond that, a USB-C to USB-A Adapter is useful if you charge from a standard USB-A port or connect to a computer that lacks USB-C. It is a small, inexpensive part that removes a common daily annoyance.
USB-C to USB-A Adapter
If you are unsure what you need, start with pads, since they are the part that wears out first. Other accessories depend on how and where you use the headphones.
- Pads are the first wear item to plan for.
- A USB-C to USB-A Adapter helps with older ports and chargers.
