I have a set of turtle beach X12's and i want to get new ear cuffs for them because the stock ones aren't really as soft as i would like them to be. Any suggestions for replacements?

Anything good would likely cost as much as a better headphone. 

 

Find the exterior radius in milimeters and search eBay using that number. Usually there are cheap options available.

oops, I edited not realizing you were active.  :unsure:

 

Find the exterior radius in milimeters and search eBay using that number. Usually there are cheap options available. Share the size with us and we may be able to help as well.

I have this headset and a good mode for people with bigger ears (like me) is to take off the earcups and put some cotton balls in the middle of where the earcup rests to make it more plush on the inside. This helps for wearing the headset for long periods of time when the ends of my ears start hurting from pushing up against the speaker wall thing.

Its not that its just that after awhile it starts to hurt on my head and feel uncomfortable.

I just looked at a picture of the X12 - the cups are ovular right? You'll need both width and height in that case  -_-

Exactly. That's literally what I just said. You can either get new earcups or just do a few mods to make it more comfortable.

sorry i misread it wrong i though you were saying that your actual EARS were hurting nto the ends sory about that.

I've swapped the earcups from my old SHITTY FUCKING TURTLE CRAPTASTIC FUCKING BEACH PIECES OF SHIT over to my audio technica M50's they swap like they were made for them

 

so once your turtle fucking beaches eventually die you can use the cups for a better headphone.
