Headphones and my head.

Post by Robot Rod »

I just purchased a niffty pair of AKG - K171 MK 2's and all was well.
Then after an hour or so looping and synth fun, i noticed that my head was starting to hurt. I tried to make the headphones larger to ease the tention on my scone and found that its still tight.

I guess i should have worn them a little longer in the shop hey !
Am i stuck with this problem ?

They can't swap your head over for a smaller one?

This is correct. Although my hands and feet can be reversed i have no head changing ability.

That would make me sad.
Being a family man and all, good headphones are far a few between.
I dont mind em now, the sound over shadows the feel.
