I keep getting these little bits of black material stuck around my ears after wearing certain of my phones for a while. I have two pair that do not have this problem. One is an AKG K-55 the other is a Sony MDR CD30. These models use a different type of material on the ear pads that does not peel. They of course would be fine for the lower price range if I can still find them for sale. However, I can’t tell enough from the catalogue or online descriptions to determine if the higher price models have the “peeling” type covering on the ear pads. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Deaton


The name Deaton is pretty rare, my name is Gordon Deaton, I live in Monroe ,Mi. and am a Musician also. Played drums for many years in many rock groups , switched to keyboards and have been playing contemporary Christian music for about 34 years. I have a lot of relitives in Tenn. around the dayton and Chattanooga area. Anyway, I've always been happy with AKG phones in most all of their price range. Have a pair of K-271's that have a great sound , though a little pricy. Have a great Christmas. Gordon
