The pads affect the sound, and so they require tuning of damping and port size. You can't just change the pads and say "this is best," you have to change the pad then adjust your port to tune the bass then balance the frequency response which requires tweeking the interior and exterior driver felt/damping.
Having worked extensively with the Sony 5000, SRH18 and stock pads, the most comfortable was the 5000, but the one I was able to tune for best sound was the Shure.
