AirPods Max - Mods (post your personalization)

[LeonPro]

Skins, ear cushions, and headband modification thread.

Post your personalizations here on your AirPods Max.

Here‘s my first round of personalization. Wanted a black and white look.

That combo is sick! Can anyone do SG+Blue or SG+Green cushions for me?

 

[Robert Brewer]

Got the blue geekria skins coming tomorrow. Think this combo is my favorite. Geekria silver skins on SG.

 

[Jordan921]

I got these blue ones. It’s ok I guess. Have some clear ones coming Monday.

 

[kuietstorm]

Love the look of the mods I’ve made.

 

[yegon]

Didn’t know these skins even existed, very good!

If I ever used the bra I’d probably buy a pair, hate the way the metal clanks together unless you’re exceptionally careful. I don’t have the problem though as I don’t use the bra, and only use the APM’s around the house.

Off topic - how I love these headphones, great product Had some battery issues briefly in the second week of ownership (got them at launch), but they’ve behaved since.

Where did you get the skins? Amazon?

We got it from Amazon. Recommend the Geekria brand.

I had the blue skins And didn’t really like them. Just ordered the green.

 

[Jordan921]

I guess I’ll just switch between these two.

Just looking around Amazon I can already tell that accessories that customize these are going to be VERY popular. THere are the usual colors and clear covers, but there are also covers designed to look like video game controllers and covers in leopard and zebra print and rainbows.

This is for the clear one. I like it. A little tough to put on the first time.

I thought I had seen it all, but now there are earcup protectors. It's literally a donut shaped piece of silicone that sits over the cloth in the earcups to protect them from damage.

Of course the ultimate protection is to leave them in the sealed box

Jordan, thank you for the reply! Appreciate it!

By the way, how is the quality of the CLEAR one? Are there super tiny dots on the inside of the covers to raise the surface off of the aluminum surface so there won't be moisture smudges in between? Also, are the cuts and openings accurate or a little off and covering some of the holes?

Thanks thanks!!

Quality is good. There are tiny dots you can see. Cuts are pretty accurate.

Here are my AirPods Max with the "TOLUOHU Headband Cushion" (amazon link) and "Geekria Silicone Skin Cover" (amazon link) on top of 12south discontinued Fermata stand (that can charge with lightening cable):

I don't like the way the "TOLUOHU Headband Cushion" looks, I also don't like how it prevents the knit mesh from compressing on your head. See how the headband is raised in the bottom image? I clicked to return the Headband Cushion to Amazon and they gave me a refund but told me I didn't need to return the item LOL.

I am keeping the "Geekria Silicone Skin Cover" ... They smell chemically out of the box, and you can slightly smell it when you wear them. But I expect that to go away after a couple of days. I really like the Geekria Silicone covers. To me they look nice on the AirPods Max, and they don't clank when the ear cups bump together anymore. They feel nice to touch, and there is a small cut out for every opening on the ear cups. They are very tight on the cups so it's like a thin skin, but it also feels protective from bumps and scratches.

Simply White.
Blends in nice with my setup.

I ordered red silicone covers from Geekria first, but the silicone had discolourations so I had to return them.
Straight ordered the white one from an unknown manufacturer and I am happy with the quality! On top they don't smell weird at all.

 

[Crossmac]

Discoloration of the red Geekria silicone covers. These tiny spots were all over the covers.
