for me, splitting the headband make it better for comfort. yet I feel the best sound, specially to get some bass Id have to press the cups onto the ears, but that would be too much pressure, still I cant wear them for more than 1 hour without getting a headache

I listen to them often about 6-7 hours straight and cant complain. At the beginning I was also shocked how much they make pressure for head and how much they are uncomfortable (used fullsize dt880pro before) I think pads are getting softer and also you can get used to it or not, depending how much sensitive you are.

I "stretched" my headband a bit so there is much less clamping force and I've found that the clamping force increases as the bands are split apart.  I can wear mine for 3-4 hours no problem.

How did you stretched your headband?

 

[Twinster]

Grab the headband with both hand and gently bend it open.

^ that is what I thought but, Im afraid the aluminium in the headband would deform, specially if it end being too spread and i have to put it back tight.
 
BTW why is this thread in the "Full Headphones" forums? would be nice to move it to the "Portables" after all is where people go to look for ... portables-

Someone already mentioned this and the answer was that they sounded like full size

sounds more like IEMs to me, specially with a loose fit 

 
but really, said person was probably refering to a beyer DT headphone
 
ps: Have you guys notice how these fit around your head? in a front view in the mirror all I can see are the earcups.

They look like smaller HD-25-1 to me. I see the full headband and cup but hey I'm bald!!!!!

 
Are you saying that they are too loose? I thought I had a small head and they fit snug. When I wear Grado they have to be at the shortest on both side.
 
Why are you referring to IEM?????

lol! in my case my hair covers the whole headband, its a snug fit indeed, only the cups pops out. not loose at all.
 
I meant I dont think they sound like a full circumaural headphone, even soundstage not much better than the HD25 for example.
 
IEM= in ear monitors 

, i mean when I position the cups "in the wrong way" is like listening to IEMs with a loose fit.

Yeah, my hair completely envelops everything except for the cups as well. Not that they're big cups--but they look pretty awkward when you can't see the rest of the headphone.

I think it looks pretty cool when you only see the cups. It's a good looking headphone, especially when worn.

a little size comparison 
 

 
Beyerdynamic DT1350  Sennheiser HD25

I would agree with this, the DT1350 doesn't sound like a full around ear headphone at all, it's very closed in nature and the soundstage is puny. Even my modded SR80i has better soundstage. 
 
If anyone thinks the DT1350 sounds like a full circum, they need to listen to more full-sized headphones.

In fact, soundstage and imaging is much worst than I thought from preleminary reviews... A real deal killer for me, and I will be returning mine. Those definitely can't compare with full size headphone (and don't have to, they are intended for a different market).
