In the 1st gen Ultra Headphones there were 12 microphones, now there are only 10.

The ear cushions on my Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones are peeling after 5 MONTHS of only home usage (I replaced the cushions on my previous Bose Noise Cancelling 700 headphones used for traveling after 2 YEARS)

Bose QuietComfort ultra..impossible to listen to on the bus

Earpad starting to peel on QuietComfort Ultras, anything I can do?
Earpad is starting to peel on one ear in the last couple of days. Really annoying as these are only about one year old. Each day it gets slightly worse!
Can the earpads be replaced? I sure hope so. Otherwise I might see about warranty.

"Popping" sound/s when walking heavy/running with QuietComfort Ultra
When I have the new QC Ultra on and walk around heavier than usually, basically a bit between walking and stomping, it's sort of a popping sound in both earpads.
The best way to simulate would be to just stand and sort of run while standing still or even jumping for a very clear sound. This happens
