Hi guys,
I'm brand new here, so I thought I'd make myself known.
To topic: I currently own Shure E2C's, E5C's, and SE530PTH's. I was curious as to what a sealed headphone would sound like, so I invested in a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-M50 phones. They sound AWESOME, but when I wear them for about an hour or so, I start not feeling well (slight nausea, slight sweating). I know this has nothing to do with frequency, nor is it a physiological issue, as I've used IEM's for years. It just seems that the sealed nature of the ATH-M50 phones are causing heating of the ear, and thus the inner ear, which is causing malaise.
I know this forum does not, nor is it designed to, give any type of medical advice aside from "see your/a doctor", but I wanted to see if anyone else experienced this, and if so, possible resolutions...?
(Sorry if I'm annoying some of the people who have seen "my ears hurt" type posts before...)
