i can't imagine a more comfortable headphones than stax sr202, sr303, sr404, lambda, etc.

A third vote for beyer dt770/80, if you like comfort stay away from grados.( just my subjective opinion, but its all about being subjective.)

One of the many comfortable set of cans that would be the Sony MDR-CD3000. I can have them on top of my head for hours without any discomfort. With a pillow properly adjusted and postioned on my bed, I can lay comfortably while listening to them.

Senn HD590's are far and away the most comfortable headphones I have tried.

 

[slavazh]

beyerdynamic dt880 2003 defently the most comfy i've ever worn.

DT880 dissapear from your head

D2000 don't rest well on my head so I'll have to say GS1000.

Wow, that's a vote for a Grado as most comfortable headphone! I guess the top of the line shouldn't be too bad.

HD555s that i had were a bit more comfy than my current AD700s i have atm. apparently dt880s are meant to be very comfy too, still waiting on postage for those.

Loved the HD555s fit though, hopefully the DT880 is similar.

Have you tried the GS-1000's with their massive pads? So very light and comfy.

My personal ranking of comfy phones:

1) Sony MDR F1
2) Grado GS-1000
3) Sony MDR10
4) Anything by AT in that one model style range, my preference are the L3000's

My MS-1s are very comfortable because the headband seems to have loosened and they sit on my ears with less force and don't crush my ears like they did for a month or two (they were really uncomfortable).
They stay on my head well too.

My vote goes to dt770. SR-404 and the similar headphones are very comfortable, the main issue with them is that my ears rest against the foam between my ear and the drivers. It's not too bad, just a little scratchy, and could be removed. Also the thin and flexible (p)leather headband is not that suitable for dreadlocks as it makes forward/backward adjustment a little annoying, but that is no big deal to most people..

The K501 was pretty comfortable as mentioned, but I prefer the head-hugging beyers

My HD 580's are very comfortable, been wearing them 14 years, also the W1000/W5000 AT phones are maybe just as comfortable, or possibly mmore comfortable ... , good phones as well

DT880 followed by AD and A series with leather pads for home use.
PX100 for outdoor use
