I'd like to know in general how pad material effects sound, but also for my specific needs . I've seen gel and memory foam with micro suede ,velour and leather and perforated or non, all at various thicknesses. They are going on ath-ad1000x and I really enjoy the high range + female vocals and acoustics.

You can read about it in different manufacturing sites, eg. Yaxi, Dekoni etc.

When interested in experiencing even subtile changes: Cut out rounds from coffee filters and put in your cans … you’ll be astonished how noticeable the differences are.
