I've been trying to get into headphone listening latley and purchased two headphones to try out: the Sennheiser Momentum and NAD HP50. They both sound great but after half hour to an hour, my earlobes start feeling some discomfort. Given, I haven't listened to headphones for extended periods for quite a while, it seems odd. The headphones are shallower than my ears so my earlobes are resting and being pressed upon by the over-ear. After an extended period it gets painful and annoying and I can't listen any further. Is this normal? Will my ears "break in" or should I be looking for less shallow headphones which would be more comfortable? If so, which would you guys recommend?
