I have not listened in periods for more than 2hrs. and a minimum of 15 minutes. I have noticed that when I listen more than 15 minutes I get my ears sored. Don't you get some discomfort with yours? I listen to the HD650 and soon I'll get the Grado SR-325. Also, I have ordered the MX400 for use with my laptop.

I listen to the 9 O'clock position.

On my winter break, upto 8 hrs a day if Im at home not doing anything. I use the PX100s, the sound signature is non fatiguing and they never hurt my ears.

How loud do you listen?

 

[Dr.Vencman]

I have the Senns HD570 which should be pretty comfortable but after about 2 hours they are not so comfy. They are sometimes louder than they should be though. That is why I am getting the Beyer 880. Ultra comfort.

 

[Helter Skelter]

I've gone 8 hours or more on several occasions, only stopping to grab some food or head to the bathroom. More common is 2 or 3 hors, but it's never because of a lack of comfort.

Not very loud at all. Normal listening level.

i log about 3-4 hours a day but it's mixed between different headphones. about 2 hours on the ec7 in the mornings and about 1-2 hours in the afternoon is all that i can take on the ms2 due to discomfort. the ms2 with bowls are like sandpaper on the tips of my ears but personally i prefer the sound to the senn pads.

as for loudness, not very loud since the ms2 as with all grados leak too much and i don't want to disturb my coworkers.

Haha, usually my shoulder and back get more tired than my ears. At low volume with my HD600 I can go away beyond 2 hours.

Actually, I find the DT880 to be quite a bit away from ultra comfort level - DT531 and K501 for example are quite a bit comfier.

More than I would like. I prefer speakers. yesterday I put about 14 hours on my senn 650. With occasional breaks of course. I'm careful to keep the volume reasonable, except perhaps on occasion and even then I'm careful to not overload my ears. You have to watch out with headphones - I've got the max volume on my headphones set so it will play less volume than my speakers. This way I'm less liekly to hurt my ears without knowing it - headphones can be played dangerously loud if you are not careful.

 

[Piccolo Daimaou]

The longest I've ever spent listening to headphones was about 3 hours. Usually, though, I only go for about 1 or 2 hours each day.

 

[fr4c]

around 1 hour at school. 2-3 hours when i'm home.

 

[kramer5150]

I listen to my super comfey KSC75 2-3 hours a day at work. Come home and clamp on the DT770 for at least an hour or 2 as I www surf. I find both to be very comfortable.

No more than an hour or two....

I am a very busy person and have difficulty multitasking with music playing.

I probably listen to most of my music on my KSC75 when I work out.

 

[Head Creep]

At home, maybe an hour or 2 at a time. At school, I can go about 4 or 5 hours, with only an occasional break to talk to someone. Don't tell my teachers...
