Hi all,
I am a long time reader of this board and my wallet has finally taken a few direct hits as a result. I just purchased the refurbished 590s from Amazon to compare and contrast with my Grado SR60s. Unfortunately, the headband is squeezing my head something fierce. I've read that the 580/600/650 bands can be stretched a bit, but I can't seem to find any info specific to the plastic band on the 590s. Anyone with experience want to comment on whether it naturally relaxes with use/stretching or I should simply look elsewhere for headphones that fit my relatively wide head. Also, any suggestions for us round-headed people.
Thanks in advance
