bend it more than you did previously.
Any ideas on the comfort of those 4? I know a lot of comfort is subjective depending on head size/ear size/etc but general idea will do. Not at my pc currently in middle of the night here so will research comfort aspect tomorrow..
AKG most comfortable to me but if you have large earlobes you'll wear them too centered to get the area that has the widest diameter, which may make them sound brighter. K701/702 earpads are angled to position the driver forward and at an angle relative to ear canal.
If you don't use them dead center, as with any large round earpad, you'll have more of the earbad in contect with the skin on your cheeks farther out from your ears and towards your nose. If your skin is easily irritated or you sweat on the pads and don't dry them much less wash them regularly, say hello to visible acne or worse.
Self adjusting headbands means the head size or afro haircut is critical. Too large? Good luck not having it clamp. Too small? They'll feel like nothing on your head and chances are they will fall off with the slightest movement.
