Sennheiser momentum 2.0 around ear wireless ear pads - do they Compress/squish

[TorontoSS]

hi there - I am so ashamed of this question but I am curious however.

I have the sennheiser momentum 2.0 wireless around ears. The pads are big - I have had them for about a month. They sound great. I wanted to know, is it normal that the pads are more compressed at the front than back?

I thought they'd bounce back - the way say Bose headphones do or probably even the pxc 550s but these stay there. Is that normal? Is it Normal that it's squished in front and not behind?

Thanks!

It must be just from the way your head and ears are shaped. I wouldn't worry about it! For the record, mine are evenly worn on all sides

Thanks for your reply. Perhaps this officially means I have a fat face!

The earpads are angled. They are supposed to be thicker at the back than at the front. This is to match the way your head curves behind your ears.

Thanks for this clarification - I was not aware of this. I thought the headphones came looking pretty equal. But it makes sense what you say.

I have to go check mine again haha, I never remembered them being angled. The LCD-2 has a hell of an angle on those pads but the Momentums seemed pretty even to me
