500+ Head-Fier
Never mind, I have taken a picture of the way the headphone sits on my head and the issue is still there.
The problem is that the point where the leather strap attaches to the carbon frame is not wide enough so the leather bends at that point creating a large spacing between the leather strap and the carbon fiber frame on the front side but tilts back so much on the other half causing the leather strap to touch the frame and cause the hotspots.
This is a poorly engineered design and now I'm looking at aftermarket solutions. Best option is probably to omit the leather strap and stick some memory foam wrapped in leather to the underside of the frame like most traditional headphones.
Does anyone know of such solutions?
