Yes I know.Not trying to dispute your point.
As a matter of interest, how many hours on your Stellias roughly?

Yeah ok, so if there is substance to the burn in theory then yours would be well underway. It'd be interesting to know what Focal's attitude to it is.
I have grooves in the sides of my head from years of wearing ear defenders in the shed. EDs can (and should) have quite a head grip. That means the glasses arms are flush with the rest of the side of my head, so no worries.I lose a lot of bass < 200Hz with glasses on. They're not that thick or anything. Stellia is very sensitive to seal and pad placement.
Any Stellia owners with glasses?
From what i've read i'd really like Stellia but then i've read that Stellia is really sensitive to glasses and fit. Is it really more sensitive than others?
If so can you recommend any closed back that is good with glasses?
Wait crincale has a headphone ranking list? Time to check that out. His IEM list in pretty much on point.
Yeah sure. I don't actually have an opinion one way or another on burning in or cable differences, because I'm too new to those concepts. Pretty much just observing and absorbing atm, and then hopefully applying some logic to the observations so as to make a decision on whether to spend some reasonably decent coin (say USD300-400) on a cable replacement.That's just me though. In the end, it's what you believe and whatever makes you happy.

The only thing I came to a very firm conclusion about was unbalanced verses balanced with my particular amp. Massive difference.
I will say this though, referring to your 4 day argument: whenever quality goes backwards from your norm it is pretty easily noticed. For example (assuming for a moment that there is substance to the burn-in theory) if I was using a pair of Stellias for perhaps 6-12 months and was totally used to the sound of them, and then put a new pair of Stellias on, then I would expect them to sound inferior. Could be any HPs, not necessarily Stellias. That would certainly shed some real light on the argument.
