Hey everyone.

Just curious to know if anybody's ever owned a pair of circumaural cans where your ears never became warm, or only did so after an extended period of time (say 3-4 hrs). I thought for sure picking up a set of open phones after trying so many closed ones that my ears would stay nice and cool, but they got warm in about the same amount of time (1 hr)

I can't imagine your ears getting hot wearing K1000s, but they're earspeakers, so maybe they don't count.

The Sony MDR-F1s look like they wouldn't be very warm.

As for my personal experience, even with my closed DT770 '05s my ears don't get warm unless I'm doing something like Rock Band with them.

Indeed!

The mighty AKG K1000.

My ears don't get hot with my AD700. In fact, 99% of the time I wear them, I'm wearing a hat over them.

Damn, my open 'phone experience is with the AD700s.... 1hr of Left 4 Dead or just watching a movie and they were starting to heat up!

 

[genclaymore]

yes for me my hfi-780. ad700 made my ears feel like they was in a spa.

my MS-1000 stays a comfy temp as long as im not in the sun or a hot room.

Whatever happened to the K-1000 smiley?

 

[Jplaz]

The Sony MDR V-600's I used weren't too bad, sitting in a room temperature, uh, room...

Sennheiser HD202's and similarly shaped models, on the other hand, *shudder*

They stay pretty cool, yes.
My ears stay pretty cool as well when I am wearing the Beyers though.

 

[Bicen]

My AD700s also stay pretty cool.

 

[wahchile]

I don't even realize my AD700's are on.

AKG 701 is the coolest most comfortable can Ive ever used. Then the Yuin OK1 in an earbut style, dont even know you are wearing them and they sound like a full sized can!
