Just got these today and I recommend experimenting with different positioning using double sided tape before committing to taking off the backing. The stock headband on my M1060C is too short for my large head and I need to use them in almost maximum extension. The headband only touches my head in the very middle instead of hugging the top which becomes very uncomfortable. I found two nuggets on the sides of the headband worked the best for me so I guess I have two spare now. The sticky backing is good enough to hold them on when putting headphones on and taking off but I wish it was a bit stronger. I will update this review if they ever fall off on their own. They look weird when the headphones are not being worn but they're mostly unnoticeable when someone is wearing them. Update: After 5 months one of them no longer sticks. The other one is still hanging on though. The leather and foam have held up well so far and I still have two spare new ones.

Just received mine and installed on my HE4XX. The HE4XX has been giving me issues with the band putting too much pressure on the top of my head due to the fact that the foam used in the band isn't soft at all, which is where the nuggets come in. They feel amazing and instantly I can tell this was worth the low price of $15, the top of my head is not constantly under an uncomfortable level of pressure and I am happy I got them.
I used all 4, but found that the higher the headband is the higher the clamp force, so you may need to bend the headband a bit.

A blessing for my ears... or head. Or both.
I used two of these (two pads, not two packs) on my Steelseries Arctis pro wireless. The headset was quite not my fit in size and the only solving option was to bend the headband... but it's flexible and goes back to its original shape XD. this is way more comfortable than bare metal touching my head but it still has some caveats - SteelSeries headsets (I have a few models and it seems to be a common thing) has a very "rubbery" silicone strap on their inner side underneath is the cables. And no adhesive tape sticks on it. My solution was to stick some Moment high-quality duck tape all around the headband. However, some velcro straps instead of duck tape would work too. If it came pre-applied velcro stripes, it would be 5/5 from me.

Pretty much as advertised, i attached these to the leather headband of the Mr.Speakers Aeon C, as the headband wasn't really working for me - created a hotspot at the top of my head and make it really uncomfortable to use after less than an hour. The nuggets pretty much solved the issue, i barely even feel the headphones on my head, which is fantastic! Highly recommended.

Comfort Comes First
I can't think of many products in this space that have shot up to such a widespread level of fame and use cases as the Bulletz tips & Nuggets...they just work better than anything else and can be applied to almost anything. While my only use case thus far has been for the Fostex Dekoni Blue, I can see people maximizing their comfort on a wide variety of cans & heads.

Perfect! Couldn't have asked for a better more comfortable solution!
Literally made my Hifiman HE4xx fit my head better and sound much better in turn because there is now a perfect seal for my ears! Super plush and comfy by the way, high quality faux leather and memory foam, double sided tape on them works well too!

Absolutely worth the money, completely fixed my AKG K702 problems!!
I was skeptical at first that these may not be comfy, or may affect the sound of my headphones, but instead they have made me fall in love with my AKG K702s all over again. AKG has always been my preferred sounding headphone, but they feel awful and give me a headache if I wear them for more than a few hours. Now with these Dekoni nuggets, I can wear them all day, feel great, and love what I'm listening to. Been singing the praises of these to all my audio buddies. GET A SET, YOU WON'T REGRET!!!

Great product, 1 outlying issue
Don't get me wrong, these things are super comfortable and are absolutely worth the money. However, out of the 2 SETS I bought (8 nuggets total), NONE of the adhesives were sticky enough to put on my headphones, and I had to resort to using my own double-sided tape. This issue really annoyed me and I hope they work to fix it in a revision.

Immensely improves comfort, with some caveats Edit: +Questionable adhesive.
Easy to apply, and works fairly well to relieve hot spots on poorly designed (read: FLAT) headbands. The only problem with this design, however, is you'll have to extend the headband a bit further for it to fit on your head. So, if you're already at or near max adjustment on your headphones, you might have to look for a different solution to improve comfort. I currently have these on my DT 990 Premium, and I have to extend the headband to max for it to fit on my head, now. Edit: The first pair's adhesive worked perfectly fine, but when I tried putting the second pair on another pair of headphones, it didn't stick at all. I felt the tape after peeling off the protector, and it's not even remotely sticky. Guess I'll have to get my own tape to make it actually work...
