Just a question about K81DJ's build
How sturdy is the connection of the headband to the 2 earcups?
I think the K81DJ swivels the cups 180 deg, so you could listen only to one cup(one ear dj mixing or something). the
hinge-swivel connection seems so small for such big and seemingly heavy ear cups.
This, coupled with the fact that K81dj's clamp around your head tightly, makes me worry that the weakest point in its structure is the connectivity of the headband and the earcups
Looking at preview pictures, I can see a 2-point swivel-hinge mechanism
the hinge that flaps the earcups upward-inward, and upward-outward, looks to be connected to the headband on a very thin lock.
The swivel that turns the ear cups sideways look a lot sturdier than the hinges. so no problem with that.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, i think that the K81DJ also collapses inward like the K26/4P, so you could keep them in the storage bag(also provided?)

so, combining all of these,
you have a seemingly weak 2-point swivel-hinge mechanism; tight clamp on the head, and constant collapsing for storage, and unfolding for listening
question now is, how long would you give the K81DJ, until the earcups break off from the headband?
