Those Brainwavz pads look great, and it looks like they'd keep the drivers from touching the ears, eliminating the occasional painful hotspots. Even the Beyer pads aren't forward enough to do that; my ears still touch the inside foam, creating the only issue with comfort with the 990s.

The nice thing about the DT990 pads is that they don't have that acoustic fabric attached to the back, so if you find like a big O ring or something, you could put it under that sleeve that holds it on and probably get a few extra mm.  Not sure if such a thing exists though.

What a great idea! Pushing the drivers ever so slightly away from the ears would make the DT990 comfort-king headphones. Roll over MA900!

Any change regarding sound quality?
