Hmm, I don't have any problems getting a good seal, and my head is somewhere from medium to small... They are pretty big though, but stay on better than people lead to believe.
I wasn't able to find a good seal. I heard their potential when I pressed it against my face. But it was a no go for me. It was too large. Everyone at work commented on the size. I kinda felt dumb. It would have been worth it if it sounded good, which requires a good seal. Unfortunate for me. I'll stick with my Q701 for home use.

I have a medium to small head and I can´t get a good seal. Then I loose the better bass a good seal gives. I tried bending the headband and it did not work as it is quite thin and does not give enough pressure. BUT I found the way. Take an adjustable elastic headband like the ones used with led headlights. Then put the headband on your forehead & top of the back of your neck, and push the cups with the band.
I know many would think it is a no go solution. but it works for me and it is still comfortable. It does not take more than few seconds to fit. Hope it helps someone. As the earpads are big, I find big differences in sound moving the earcups around my ears. I prefer the position where the cups are closer to the back of my head.
The position of the cans with respect to your ears also makes a significant difference (even after you achieve a good seal).
So you mean the same position as shown in the link below?

I go by this position for all my headphones and it sounds best for me.
