Unfortunately after almost two years of ownership, my Penrose broke too. Seems like a weak point in the band. This sucks :( These were really great headphones, but I don’t think I can justify purchasing a pair every ~2 years. I wonder if this can be fixed.

Got my Penrose a few days ago. Clamping is tight, top headband is not comfortable. Cups are a little small (more similar to the Sony WH-1000XM3 than the spacious AKG K7XX), not plush enough, and I personally don't like that my ears feel like they're being suctioned. Maybe aftermarket velour pads...

I've read the majority of this thread, and I'm not sure if I should cancel my Penrose preorder (from a local distributor) and get the Arctis Pro Wireless instead. I've been looking at the Penrose and APW because I needed a wireless headset, and those are very highly regarded. Ended up...
