I’ve read those triple driver sound good but are horribly uncomfortable?

Depends on your ears. The bigger they are, the more uncomfortable they are. They are on ear and the padding over the tweeter pushes on my ears, so I can wear them for maybe 1.5hrs max. After about an hour they are very uncomfortable. They are my second favorite headphones I have ever heard though. Crazy amazing V shape sound with really unique imaging. I will definitely get them at some point to keep. And the more power you give them the more amazing they sound.

mmm…on ears, yeah I get that. took a long time for me to get used to my Senn HD4.40’s…but eventually I did. however that was more due to the pressure of the earpad surface exerting on my ears from their clamping force. still a bit different than having an actual part of the headphone poke into you though. I wonder how much the sound would be affected by replacing he earpad with something that gave more distance to compensate for that.

I don’t believe I have big ears…but mebe you could have your better half measure your ears x and y axis diameters and share those with me so I can compare to mine? :wink:

I’m kinda concerned putting deals here with Corona in the world. From what ive read Corona can survive on cardboard for up to 3 days. So when you get your packages it may be a good idea to let it sit for 3 days. Or use gloves, disinfect and wash hands thoroughly after handing and unpackaging it

ive ordered stuff in the middle of this. just open it up outside, leave the box outside, wipe product off with alcohol or similar. Wash hands and dont touch face when done. All good.

920

Ive taken to putting a paper towel in my shirt pocket lol. when i need to touch my face i use that. Think the handkerchief is gonna make a comeback if they dont find a cure.

921

I’ve just been hyper aware and resist touching my face period.

Now, back to DEALS.

Yeah, it’s why I went through with it. Despite the strange description. I’m guessing the person that was putting them up Newegg accidentally copy and pasted the wrong data. It’s currently shipped and will be here on the 14th (estimated). I’ll update in case anyone is still on the fence about ordering them.
