Ever since getting my new HD580 Senns, it's clamping force has been a source of discomfort. While attempting to loosen its clamping force by bending the headband back (careful not that far), the plastic part of the headband broke in two. With the cans then being held together only by the metal band, all of its clamping force was lost. I still could use them but they would move around too easily so I needed to repair them somehow. My solution: I cut a strip from a mousepad the size of the headband and with two strips of duct tape and two lightweight cable ties, I satisfactorily connected the two cans. The clamping force is not too loose and my HD580s are much more comfortable.
Those not wanting to break their Senns as I did, might want to be a bit more careful than I was. Putting books or some such object(s) between the cans would be a safer way to stretch them out.
