I just got Audio Technica ATH-M50X Headphones for Christmas and was very excited. The sound quality is wonderful. They have solid range and represent a very neutral take on all sound, giving a clear and soothing listening experience.
But God damn it, do they clamp like a son of a bitch! The clamp force is crazy! I currently have a headache because of how tight these headphones are. I don’t know if stretching them or getting some BrainWavz memory foam pads might help, but I really hope I can resolve this comfort issue.
I have never had this problem and I have a huge head.
Hmm interesting. I just ordered some brainwavz memory foam replacement pads. Hopefully those help. I also tried the method of stretching the headphones to reduce the clamping force and that seems to be helping a lot. Thank you for the advice everyone! 😃
