Calibrate Your Sound
Switch between two ear pad types for the ultimate customization:
Angled Alcantara
These angled earpads enhance your Elite’s sound, revealing cleaner bass and clearer mids with a more open sound. Made from soft foam with Alcantara and a fine protective mesh on the grille, they offer improved comfort for most ear shapes.
Hybrid (Perforated Alcantara + Real Leather)
With a soft, durable outer finish, the Hybrid ear cushions perfectly balance the qualities of Alcantara and leather into a single, comfortable design. This unique combo delivers an airy sound signature, in which sound waves appear to transcend the space around you to create an immersive experience.
Designed for Life
Taking long-term sustainability to a new level, Elite is also fully serviceable: from the replaceable earpads to the high-performance materials used, every part of the headphone chassis is available to be easily disassembled and serviced.
