After having some 15 mm thick Polyurethane foam under the headband

they sound much better.Before the headband started pressing on the head after 6-7 hours usage.

now i can have them for 16 hours without problem.

measure 15*300*50 mm .Press middle section hard before mounting.

 

Any other suggestions??

>Sounds Much Better

 

Either you have a small (Which is possible) or you are not adjusting the headband properly.

When the drivers are  placed at an angle to the ear the position of the cup is important.

Using padding under the headband lifted the upper part of the cup out which resulted

in a improvement of soundstage.

Offcourse we all have different heads.

  It's so easy, but did you ever test for the optimal position of your headphone? With many headphones the soundstage and the balance of sound are strongly dependent on the position of the driver to our ears.

Scientific research has shown that our perception of depth is increased when the driver is placed more forward and lower with respect to the entrance of the ear channel.

Experimenting doesn't cost you anything and may improve sound considerably.
