[LAU] Headphones

[Gianfranco Ceccolini]

that’s a good point Will

if you wear glasses (as I do) I believe that is actually one very important issue.

I tried a Beyer that had absolutely great sound but would give me a very particular headache after 15 minutes or so due to it pressing the glasses rods against the sides of my head.

Cheers

Gian
