Corsair HS60 replacement ear pads fit only when the product listing names your headset model. Corsair lists an official two-pad set specifically for the HS60 PRO, while a third-party option names both HS60 and HS60 PRO compatibility. [1][2] To go further, see How to Replace Corsair HS60 Ear Pads Safely.
That distinction matters when you shop: “HS60” and “HS60 PRO” are not labels to treat as interchangeable without checking the product’s compatibility details. For example, if your headset is an HS60 PRO, the official Corsair set is clearly labeled for that model; a third-party listing may also name both variants. [1][2]
Start with the exact model name printed on your headset or its product information, then match it to the listing’s compatibility wording. A product title that mentions a different HS model is not enough to show that it fits your headset; look for the precise variant instead. [3][2]
What should you verify before ordering?
Before ordering, verify the exact headset name, how many pads are included, and the current listing and seller details. Those quick checks can help you avoid buying a set that does not match your headset or replacing only one side when you meant to replace both.
Check the compatibility list
Look for your exact Corsair HS60 model name in the product’s compatibility list, rather than relying on a broad title or a headset photo. For example, Wicked Cushions names HS60 and HS60 PRO among the compatible models for its replacement earpads. [2] If your headset label says HS60 PRO, make sure the listing includes that exact name; if it says HS60, look for that name instead.
Treat the compatibility wording as the key check when you compare listings. A product title may use a shortened name, so open the details and scan the full compatibility description before you add it to your cart.
Confirm the quantity
Check whether the listing includes one pad or a pair. Corsair’s HS60 PRO replacement set is listed as a set of two, so it contains a pad for each side. [1] If you plan to replace both sides, confirm that the package quantity covers both rather than assuming a listing is sold as a pair.
Review the current listing and seller
Before paying, read the current product details and check who is selling the pads. Confirm that the model compatibility and package contents still match what you need, and review the seller information shown at checkout.
For example, if a listing names your headset but does not clearly state the quantity, pause and check its product details or ask the seller before ordering. That small check is more useful than guessing from the product image, which may not show everything included in the package.
How do official and third-party options differ?
Option | Named headset compatibility | Package contents | What the listing tells you |
|---|---|---|---|
Corsair official | HS60 PRO [1] | Set of 2, black [1] | A model-specific two-pad replacement set [1] |
Wicked Cushions third-party | HS70, HS50, HS60, and HS60 PRO [2] | Not stated in the listing details cited here | A third-party option that names several headset models [2] |
The clearest difference is the breadth of the compatibility list: Corsair’s product is labeled for HS60 PRO, while Wicked Cushions names four models. [1][2] If you are comparing the listings, treat the package details as a separate check from fit: Corsair explicitly describes a two-pad set, while the Wicked Cushions details above do not specify a quantity. [1][2]
For example, if you have an HS50, the Wicked Cushions listing names that model, whereas the Corsair product label names HS60 PRO. [1][2] Don’t assume a pad fits simply because its title includes “HS60” or because the headset belongs to the HS series; compare the exact model names and stated contents before choosing.
Which pad material should you choose?
PU leather, breathable sports fabric, and cooling gel are material options you may see in Corsair HS60 replacement ear pad listings, but the label alone does not tell you which pair will suit you. [3][2] Choose by checking the listing details and images against how you want the pads to feel and how you prefer to care for them. For more detail, see Corsair HS60 Leather vs Fabric Ear Pads: Which to Choose?
Match the material to your preferences
If you want a leather-like surface, look for a listing that clearly describes PU leather and inspect its product photos to see how that finish looks. [2] If you would rather have a fabric surface, check for the breathable sports fabric description and confirm the images show the material you expect. [2] These descriptions give you a starting point, not a guarantee that a particular texture or feel will be right for you.
A cooling-gel label is another option to consider: one listing advertises cooling gel earpads for the HS60. [3] Treat that as a product feature to compare, not as proof that the pads will feel cool in every room or during every session. If comfort is your priority, look closely at the material wording and close-up images rather than relying on a short title.
Check the listing, not just the headline
Before choosing, read the full material description and compare it with the photos. For example, if you prefer fabric against your skin, do not settle for a listing whose title mentions cooling gel without showing or describing the fabric surface you want. Product titles can emphasize one feature, so use the detailed description and images together.
Keep material and fit as separate checks. A PU leather, sports fabric, or cooling gel label does not by itself confirm compatibility with your exact headset; verify the model compatibility separately before buying. [3][2] That way, you can choose a surface that suits your preferences without assuming the material name means the pads will fit.
What else might you want to know?
Are HS60 and HS60 PRO ear pads interchangeable?
Don’t assume that HS60 and HS60 PRO pads are interchangeable just because a listing names both headsets. Corsair lists a replacement set for the HS60 PRO, while Wicked Cushions describes its pads as designed for both HS60 and HS60 PRO headsets. [1] [2] Check the exact product’s compatibility list and make sure it names your headset variant before you order.
For example, if you own an HS60 PRO and find pads advertised for the HS60, look for the HS60 PRO name in that specific listing rather than relying on a similar model label. A retailer may group several headset models together, so verify the fit claim for the product you’re considering.
Where can you find removal guidance?
Corsair provides a general article about replacing headset earpads, but its instructions are not automatically a match for every HS60 model. [4] Before following a step, confirm that the guidance applies to your headset; if the article names a different headset family, don’t assume its method is right for yours.
For instance, Corsair’s article describes rotating earpads clockwise for Virtuoso and newer HS series headsets. [4] Check the model scope before trying that motion on your HS60, and stop if the instructions don’t clearly match your headset.
What if a listing and replacement guide seem to disagree?
Treat compatibility and removal instructions as separate checks: a pad listing tells you which models it claims to fit, while a replacement guide explains a removal method for the headset models it covers. Compare each claim with your exact headset name, and don’t use a general instruction as proof that a replacement pad fits.
If you’re unsure, pause before ordering or removing the old pads. Recheck the product’s compatibility wording and the headset model named in the guide rather than forcing a pad or attachment that doesn’t seem to match.
Make your choice by matching the model first
Start with a replacement listing that names your exact HS60 variant, then check what the package includes before comparing pad materials. For example, a Corsair listing is titled “HS60 PRO Ear Pads – Set of 2 – Black,” while another product listing names HS60 and HS60 PRO among its compatible headsets. [1][2] You may also find this useful: Corsair HS60 Ear Pad Size: Measurements to Check.
Match the listing to your headset
Before you add pads to your cart, find your headset’s full model name and look for that same name in the replacement listing. A listing that names several models can be useful, but read the compatibility wording rather than relying on a broad title like “HS60 replacement pads.” [2]
Treat the product title and compatibility details as a pair: the title helps you identify the item, while the listed headset models tell you what it is designed to fit. If the listing names your variant explicitly, you can move on to checking the package and product details.
Check the package details
Confirm that the listing includes enough pads for the replacement you plan to make. For instance, Corsair labels its HS60 PRO product as a set of two, so the package count is clear from the title. [1] If you are replacing both sides, check the current listing details instead of assuming the product comes as a pair.
Take a moment to read the rest of the product page before ordering. Check the exact item name, package contents, and seller details, and make sure you are looking at the product you intended to buy. These small checks help prevent a mismatch between the headset on your desk and the item in your cart.
Compare materials last
Once the listing names your headset and you have checked the package, compare materials against what you want from the pads. One replacement listing describes PU leather and breathable sports fabric, so you can use its material description to decide whether it matches your preference. [2]
Keep fit and feel as separate checks: compatibility comes first, and material choice comes after. Your next step is to open a listing that names your HS60 variant, verify the pad count and current details, then choose the material that suits you.
