My Custom Cans earpads were finally showing wear...

The earpads on my Custom Cans Alluminium SD25s finally started to show wear. I ordered genuine replacements on the CC website, and they arrived the next day. Added bonus: the replacements have a soft velvet finish and feel even more comfortable than the vinyl-finished originals. Very happy!

Amazing customer service so friendly

Amazing customer service so friendly. Order arrived speedily and was exactly as described. Genuinely can't recommend Custom Cans enough. Stumbled across them via their Youtube channel and so glad I did. Believe me if you love music you need to buy a pair of headphones from these people.

BRAVISSIMI !

First of all, the excellent quality of their products, then their support team, always a top service not only for problems, but also for suggestions… These are the only things which make the difference between a standard company and an excellent one ! And Custom Cans is rightfully among the latter ! As we say in Italy:
BRAVI, BRAVISSIMI !!!

Excellent upgrade

Clear description of cables and connector options with easy ordering. Realistic indication of delivery timeframe.
Well made and neatly finished balanced headphone and interconnect set . An immediate and noticeable improvement in performance and musicality which developed after a relatively brief 'burn in'.
A noticeable upgrade. Thanks
