Welcome to Headphone Heights, the place for all your ear bud discussion

Not what you requested, but...........

FWIW I'm hung up on headphone comfort, both head band as well as ear pressure. I never found a light on ear headphone that didn't press too hard for me. I've been using Senn 650's for the past 5 years and was happy if not estatic. I do like their sound (I drive them with a Woo3).

I recently picked up a pair of Mr Speaker planar phones (Mad Dogs - $300) and I was amazed by the comfort level - no head band or ear pressure at all. They are the most comfortable head phones I've ever worn. Sound wise they are warm in tone, being neither as extended or 'airy' as the Senn's but they are an excellent compromise. There are 2 other models in the line which offer alternative design and tone but use the same ear pads and headband system and should be equally comfortable. They are 'over the ear' however so they may not be what you want, but it is something to think about.
