Hi,
I recently bought the B&W P5s and I love them, they sound gorgeous out of my iPhone 4.
My only minor complaint is that they become slightly uncomfortable after several hours of use, and whilst I don't mind too much as I'm sure I'll get used to it, I am wondering if it would be possible to use over-ear cups as opposed to on-ear ones. As they are attached magnetically, I can't see any reason why someone couldn't make them, or possibly adapt them from other headphones.
I'm thinking I can buy a new pair of B&W cushions, remove the middle plastic piece (that should also be attached to the magnets that hold the cushions on) and then attach it to some over-ear cushions.
If anyone can offer any tips on doing this, such as what kind of glue to use or what pads you think might work well please do let me know. I have contacted B&W asking where I can buy a new set of cushions.
Thanks
