Couple of questions about my newly acquired Grado RS-1s. Firstly, I am using C-pad bowls and I was wondering are the headphones suppose to clamp onto your head so that there is a bit of pressure against the outer rim of the ear?

Second concern is, I move around a bit while I wear my headphones around my desk. Everytime I move, I hear the headband making noise like when you kind of push them together you get that rubbing leather sound.

What can I do to get a bit more pressure on the headphones because after I push them together they sound a bit better.

i am suprised that you do ask for tighter, as most users complain that they are TOO TIGHT.

bend the headband. just a little bit in.

they will crush your ears that way though.

Yeah but I bought these used and previous owners had larger heads than I and it is almost too loose.

From what I've read you can easily bend the Grado headband to your needs. I would expect its easy enough to form it to the shape of your head and get the amount of pressure you would like.

Is it easy to actually snap the headband? I feel like I need to baby the headband.

The headband feels like steel... of all the things on the headphone the headband is the thing that I'm least afraid of breaking...
