I'm looking for some new pads for the Koss DJ Pro 100, most of the recommendations involve V6/M50s, however, has anyone tried the headphones with beyerdynamic pads, velour or gels?
I doubt they'd fit without glueing or sewing them on but it'd be interesting to listen to them.

They don't fit and are a little too big. AKG K240 Pads fit but they're extremely loose and don't sound too good. If you have too much air between your ear and the driver, the sound on the DJ100 is ruined. This is why SRH-840 pads sound awful on the DJ100.
 
So far here's a list of pads that fit:
 
M50
V6, M30
JVC RX300 (angled pads)
SRH-840
Pro700 MKII (not confirmed. Any source for the pads?)
 
I'm about 50% sure the SRH-940 velour pads might fit. I should try them, but I don't actually like most velour pads. AKG and DT-880 velour is OK.

I'll grab the V6 pads, I can't afford the M50s with also buying some L-Cush for my Grados, and the JVCs don't look comfortable at all.

Pearstone velour pads also fit. They're from B&H and made for the V6.
They're the scratchy type of velour and get hot fast though.
 
Maybe Beyer DT-250 pads fit? I should look into this.

In theory, they could, since the dimensions are similar to the V6 (and are even used as a replacement for V6 pads).
