I'm honestly somewhat surprised with the results of this (clearly iFixit was too!)- I didn't expect any replaceable parts beyond the ear cups, but if you get the right screw set it looks like you can replace a good chunk of the components that are likely to fail. Getting a good replacement part, however, might be tricky with such a niche product.
The user-replaceable headband is also an interesting design consideration- you'd think Apple would lead with that by allowing users to mix-and-match the headband and cups (white and black seem like they'd be a nice mix).

$550 is still far too much for them though.
