The thing is, the DT250 pads don't come with a cover over the driver grille right?  The grille covers come off with the Somic's stock pads so you would be stuck without grille covers if you use the DT250 pads unless you cut off the grille covers from the stock pads and glue them to the grille or something

Oh ok.  The stock pad comes integrated with the grille cloth though.  You can see how that is so in the pics below (copied from the OP).  So if the DT250 pads come with a separate disc of grille cloth you would have to DIY a way to secure it over the actual grille.

So the concern about the ear pads is depth, right? Can you measure how deep the pads are Joe?
 

They're about 18mm deep.

Just got my MH463 today, and I have to say... very impressive for a $45 headphone

 
The pads are removable, but I'm not sure where you'd get better replacement pads.
You could ofcourse make your own if you've got some sewing skills, a sewing machine and some fabric (like I do

)
 
Some pics for those curious minds: (bye-bye warranty.....)

For me, the stocks pads are great. They are smooth and quite comfortable.

Still Enjoying ? They are addictive !!, It is one of funniest headphones i've heard. I've more than 30 headphones, some of then very expensive (AKG. Senn, Sony) and these are still one of my favorites.. They sound simply amazing. As you say,, they put a smile in your face.

I have sent them back, never managed to like them. I have a full review on my blog, it is an interesting headphone and very good one for the price! Meanwhile I picked up the Efi 82 MT and I love them .

Still my favorite headphones to listen to. Absolutely still enjoying them.

For the price you pay for these, why not get the pioneer se-a1000? It's $60

Closed vs open. Serve two different listening preferences.

Still rocking them all the time!

the pioneers are completely open-back. it's mesh with a piece of felt to dampen. want pics?

 

[BBEG]

Absolutely. I have this unhealthy attraction toward low-cost open headphones... "This is the last one. For real this time."
