  Can't measure. Mine are due in tomorrow...just showed up at my local post office. Should have them back by lunch tomorrow. 
 
I'll be able to use them at my desk my primary cable and also have a secondary shorter dual exit cable for portable use!! The wait was painful but worth it.

I read the whole thread before posting, and one person asked about the depth of the pads in relation to the driver angle, not the width. Another person mentioned that the pads were the typical size of what you would have on headphones with 40mm drivers. There weren't any measurements taken.

Oh yeah, that's almost perfect. Thanks a lot. I can fit my black beyer gel pads on these headphones then (101.6mm outer, 60mm inner). I'll wait and see if these headphones will ever lower in price, and then I'll snatch them up.

Just fired up the A2 and ma900. Cranked the pot to about 10:00. Hit play with some Modest Mouse: Float On. Dayum!! This is good stuff.

Got mine on eBay for 139. Let me know about the pads and if they fit and sound good.

 
Looks nice but I despise clunky cables and those connectors look clunky and would detract alot from a big plus of these which is lightness.
 
What A2 are you speaking of out of curiosity ? Old Cowon A2  or something else ?

He means the Asgard 2 in his signature, I'm pretty sure... he mentioned that the MDR-MA900 were too efficient for his vintage amps...

My MDR-MA900s were just shipped !   I'll give impressions next week when they arrive (including a recommendation for the ebay seller, assuming everything is as described).
