Anyone have a suggestion. I really like the sound on my HD555s, especially for jazz, but they just aren't getting any more comfortable. I still have another week to return them and try something else if they won't cut it. I'm looking for an open headphone that can be used for rock (classic and modern), jazz, movies and gaming. I'm considering trying the AD700 from headroom as I've read they're comfortable. I don't know if they'll have the bass, though.
If I stick with the 555's will they loosen up a bit? I tried stretching the headband some and it helped until they went back to how they were before. I have arthritis in my jaw and I think the length (oval shape) is bothering me. I also have a largish head.
So...should I stick with these, and what are the alternatives? Thanks a lot.

Edit: Are the Beyer headphones comfortable. I already invested in a sound card. I don't mind investing in the next level up headphone so long as its a comfortable. Thanks again.
