I just looked at the clock and realized, short of a lunch break and dinner break, i've worn my HD595's for nearly 9 hours today and my ears arent tired at all.

Simply amazing.

What headphones do you find to be the most comfortable?

To spare a longer post, I've only ever found one pair of headphones to actually be actively or notably UNcomfortable. The Koss ESP9.

Top choices for ultimate comfort would be the Ergo 2, Taket H2 and Jecklin Float though.

Even more so than the Triports right? Would you rank them high in comfort?

I should add R10s, L3000s and W5000s as the most comfortable cans I tried so far.

I didnt list the Triport for the same reason I didnt list the Omega 2, HD600, HD650, K701 et all.

Clamp force and porousness. The three I mention have a secure hold for listening with 0 pressure and 0 sweat.

of mine.
Beyer 250's
Grado jumbo's.
Even though the beyer 250's are a snug fit more so than the 531's or 880's
k701's , even the rs-1's, they are still somehow for me the least fatigueing.
my most comfortable.

out of the cans ive had thus far, wich really isnt many, ive fell in love with my AKG K240's with the beyer DT440 fluff's, VERY comfortable. ive been through the prolines and the top of the head itch. not fun.

no squeeze, no headband pressure, they just, are.

Of all the headphones I've tried, I've got go to with the Bose Triports for comfort level. Other than comfort and muddy sound, it doesn't offer much else.
