Looking for a pair of headphones that suit my "ergonomic" needs.

Right now I'm looking to buy a pair of headphones in the $150-$200 AUD range.
I do have a problem though, I have an Industrial piercing (http://wiki.bmezine.com/index.php/Industrial_Piercing).
This causes no issues with my IEMs, but it does get quite painful to wear most headphones for an extended period of time.

Basically what I'm asking is, are there are headphones out there in my price range that won't apply pressure to the piercing?

The Senheisser HD555's are over the ear rather than on the ear. These might be decent but they may not be 'raised' enough.

I'll make sure to add those to the list of Headphones to try.

My ears are stretched, which caused a lot of discomfort with a lot of different cans. I use the 555s as well and they're fine for me.
