You can customize the clamping forece by bending it a little bitI couldn't stand xm4 for the same reason. But xm5 is much better due to lighter clamping force.
My friend ditched his xm4 the moment he tried my xm5. I did the same to my Px7.
The headphone comfort is such a personal experience which i dont think reading reviews helps much. You just have to try it urself and decide.
worked great for me
