Call me a luddite, but I HATE wireless headphones.

I have had a set of Sennheiser HD 2.30's for about 5 years, which I leave permanently plugged into my mobile phone, during the business day. I LOVE them.

Sennheiser HD 2.30 - Headphones Headset On Ear Stereo - Lightweight and comfortable

But the ear pieces are starting to fall apart and it's time to replace them. But with what!?

I have gone to the Sennheiser website and the closest I can find are the HD 569's but they seem a bit on the big side. I would prefer "on ear", rather than "over ear".

Any suggestions!?

Have you looked for replacement pads for them? I have got some for my sonys off aliexpress when they started to shed the outer layer and look bad.

I can't see how they are replaceable on my headset.

I actually got a response from Sennheiser that the HD400S is the closeest, to the HD2.30. They are less than $100 so I just bought myself a pair:
