I wonder if the OP with ear pain means the pressure that can build inside the ear canal as opposed to pain from pressure on the structures around the ear? I can see that happening if all your headphones had been open back and suddenly you have this big monster 70mm driver and a tight seal. I have on occasion with other closed headphones had an unpleasant sensation from internal air pressure I assume. Not with the Z1R as of yet, touch wood.
Very logical explanation and one I surmise explains what I was experiencing. I definitely feel the big driver and tight seal caused this for me. This was one of the reasons mine went back - well that and the Utopia!
