From the tester:

This headphone is a wired model from SONY, designed specifically for video viewing. It is the top model among the four XD series released at the same time, featuring a unique headband structure and large 50mm drivers. Despite its size, it is relatively lightweight, and the combination of its unique headband and the gentle pressure of the ear pads makes for very comfortable wearing. The sound quality is clear, with powerful bass and distinct directionality, providing an incredible sense of presence and power. It can be described as an unparalleled masterpiece among wired headphones for movie viewing.

Tips for attaching the cover:

1. Insert the rubber band of the cover into the gap
It is recommended to insert the rubber band part of the cover into the groove between the ear pad and housing. (Please refer to the photo above)
At that time, there is one seam on the rubber band of the cover, and that part is thicker and harder to insert, so it is key to insert the other parts first and then press in the seam part at the end. However, if you feel discomfort due to the tension of the cover, try securing the rubber band of the cover at the side of the ear pad to lessen the tension.

2. Orient the cover vertically
This cover has different stretchability in vertical and horizontal directions, and it stretches better vertically. Since these headphones have vertically long ear pads, aligning the cover in the vertical direction (the more stretchable direction) will improve the fit.
To attach the cover vertically, place the seam part of the rubber band at the top (or bottom) of the cup. This will allow the fabric of the cover to be oriented vertically.

3. Stretch before wearing
Before wearing the headset, stretch the fabric of the cover by pushing it inside the ear pads with your hand. This will loosen the tension of the cover and improve comfort. If you feel pressure on your ears due to the cover, try this method.
