I guess I never paid attention to it before but I measured out my ears and my left one is definitely a protruding ear. I just recently brought an SHP 9600 hoping the huge ear cup size would be the comfort I was seeking all this time but not even it can help me. My left ear is constantly irritated and touch the wall of the ear cup. Does anyone else have this issue? This is is probably a silly and idiotic idea but I was thinking of taping the edges of my ear down when I want to use headphones so I can fit it inside the ear cup. Is this a bad idea? I’m really desperate at this point but I have no more money to spend after buying the headphones and I doubt there is a headset that will help me at this point.
I have the same issue but with my right ear! I wouldn’t say it’s painful (some headphones are but the vast majority are not), but as somebody with seborrheic dermatitis my ears do get quite itchy over time if I wear headphones that press on it for extended periods. I was also thinking of perhaps taping my ears down, but it would also be pretty uncomfortable where it’s kinda a lose-lose situation either way. I just try to ignore it
