Maybe we can find some cheaper earpads, since the original AKG ones are rather expensive compared to the headphone.
On amazon.de i found these and also these. I don't know how good they really are but about 5€ might be worth a try.
I use these with my akg k240, didn't come with foam so I used the foam that came included stock.

The hifiman velour pads roughly the same as the above pads, stiff foam but has a small piece of fabric.

The top of the line stuff is really the akg k70x pads but are crazy expensive, $27.50 individually.

The beyedynamic ear pads are really nice soft foam on the inside. I might switch out the my beyerdynamic pads for my hifiman velour pads if most of my beyer foam wasn't dead.
If you want to be super cheap and don't mind some ghetto-rigging you always have the sock mod.
The favorites from what I remember of the time I spent digging for mod info on my 668b/SR850 were the AKG K240/270 pads (Headroom - Thomann) though the official ones cost more than the headphones them selves. The Beyerdynamic Velour Pads that net-force mentioned look pretty comparable though. Hell of a lot cheaper as well.
The Leather Sound Blaster pads were popular as well, can't seem to find them for sale anymore sadly.
I've seen pics of the Beyer pad you linked stretched to fit as well, but they apparently affect the sound in a negative way. Don't remember how exactly though.
I'm no audiophile myself but the sound for me is fine and from my research before purchasing superlux are highly regarded at giving excellent quality at a low price.
I don't know much again about surround sound but I've had no issues playing any games which require you to have audio awareness (space pirate trainer, holopoint). I've always been able to tell where the enemies are coming from.
I also bought these 1 Pair of Replacement Ear Pads Cushions for DT770 DT551 DT880 DT990 DT531 DT801 DT440 DT660---Black https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00C3BEREY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_etcDxbPX6GPGRfor them as a lot of people recommended it for comfort. I didn't think the original ones were bad but these are a bit more comfortable.
