New Head-Fier
Pros: Light weight, portable
Cons: Hate plastic, uncomfortable, painful, not ergonomical , highs are too aggressive
Sennheiser HD25-II is one of hot model in on-ear headphone. I buy it because of high rating from different users.
However, i feel very disappointed when I use it.
 
First of all, the headband structure is too tight. It makes my head painful and can't wear for more than 5 minutes, 1 song?!
 
Bass, quite strong
 
Mids - not natural
 
Highs - clear, but the highs are too aggressive. It hurts my ear when listening for long time.
 
I can't use it for more than 5 mins because of the headband pinching force. No matter how the sound is, the headphone is useless for a user if they can't use it daily.
 
Sorry about that. Sennheiser.

You're entitled to your opinion, headphones are subjective, I personally love mine & I've got a massive head. clamping force never an issue for me. they will loosen a bit with time. by widening the distance between the two headbands I always find a comfortable fit. I love the way they sound, they're not perfect but I've yet to find perfection

I would think, if it is a steel band, if too tight then why not simply bend them outwards? If its spring steel, it should be very resilient. Just a thought.

I wouldn't use HD25's for a listening session but for DJ'ing its another matter.  I find it so easy to pull the beats out for mixing and then mentally pull the mid in to discern how the two tunes will sound together.
 
Practical as well - bombproof (as mentioned above good plastic is very good - think Glock), nice long cable and a high clamping force is a good thing - last thing you want is your headphones falling off mid mix!
