Default popping when braking

i have tried everything on this site about fixing this popping noise. i have replaced UCA and LCA bushings, all four struts, springs and mounts. tightened sub frame bolts. checked ball joints and no play. i took my calipers off and noticed that my pads have room between the clips on the brackets. the noise happens when i just tap the brakes. i try to tap the brakes very soft and the sound is there. the clips for the pads have less than 2k on them cause i replaced them when i did my brakes. idk what else to do. its really ticking me off

Change your brake pads to something that fits better
the brake is moving in the caliper when you come to a stop.
Thats the sound.
