I HIGHLY recommend that you get some Dekoni pads, cut out the acoustically-transparent fabric, and your ears wont touch anything.

Which variant do you recommend the most? if I don’t want to change the sound signature

I use the Elite Hybrid. I removed the acoustically-transparent fabric inside the Dekonis, with a razor blade, and kept the stock driver covers inside the cups. The pads look incredible (way, way better than stock IMO) and my big dumb ears never touch anything inside the headphones. Also, they are SO luxuriously soft and comfortable, compared to stock, it's not even close. I didn't notice any sound change with the pad swap (if there is a difference, it is too subtle for me to notice). Cheers.
