For me the new leather pads are marginally deeper or compress less than the stock pads on my HE-500. Visually I don't detect any depth difference

Yes but it feels less than with the stock pads. When I had the pads of I found out what it is my ears touch. All the way across the top face of the driver protection there is a round metal bar welded running between the anchor points of the cup mounts. This bar sticks out perhaps 1 mm over the flat and this is what my ears touch. I'm almost sure this bar is not in the HE-4 and probably explains why the HE-4 pads felt deeper than the HE-500 pads
Hmmm seems that there was a lot of variation in the thickness in the old velour pads then. The pads on my HE-4 were also significantly thicker than my HE-500 pads
Are that the new replacement velour pads or an older one ?
I certainly don't see that difference between my leather pads and stock HE-500 pads
