I got rid of the twisty ties and am now using 2 zip ties per side to extend the headband to its fullest. Much more secure. Ready to cut those bumps out tho...
How bout the Q701's lan factor? I took my very open HD580's along w/ the closed DT770. It was simply too hard to pinpoint anything w/ the background noise the sennheiser let in. :/
