Bummer.
No one else has said anything negative about the comfort at all, so I'm hoping it's just that my ears aren't used to having anything pressed up so close. The itching could be down to having to get used to another material?

Either way, I hope it passes. These headphones have the most amazing soundstage I've heard, it's huge - and the bass. . . well, words can't describe it. It kind of 'bounces' if that makes sense?

Funnily enough, the difference when paired with the Sony A808 isn't nearly as big as when paired with the Zune. Just goes to show that headphones can really shine with the right dap.

The Denons with the Zune didn't give me enough bass (probably because I'm so used to the Sony bass!!!) - but the Klipsch > Zune is a whole 'nother world! I guess I should get off my petite derriere and go write a comparison in the Denon thread!

I thought I might have problems with the volume since the Denons are 16ohms and the Klipsch 50ohms. Weird thing is that I'm using the same volume (maybe slightly lower), with the Klipsch as I do with the Denons (around half way), but when I had the E500 (36ohms) I used to have to turn the Sony louder. That's why I figured the Klipsch would be no good with the Sony but the volume's fine.
