Thanks! I got the hangers off eBay. Search for "wood headphone hanger" and scroll a bit, a bunch of Chinese sellers have them. I wanted a more homely look, so I glued and pinned mine to some wooden discs (bark and all) meant for Christmas decorations. These in turn are fastened to the wall with a screw each.

Guess I graduated from White to Yellow Belt in Hi-Fu. From left to right, top to bottom: Sony WH-XB910N, Audioquest Nighthawk Carbon, Ollo S5X and Massdrop x E-MU Purpleheart. RME ADI-2 DAC FS provides the power (and a bunch of other stuff if I'm in the mood). I love it and felt like sharing. Thanks!

Oh shit, did I accidentally post that?
I mean, uh, soundstage! Resolution! Right, my audiofellows? Please don't ban me guy, I love silver cables insulated with panda eyelids, it totally makes treble go tch-tch instead of tsh-tsh.
(Mmm, socially acceptable adult earmuffs...)

Beefy headphones are cozy. It's like a hug for your head! IEMs never rise above tolerable and often get uncomfortable after a while.

I get similar issues if I listen to my headphones all day for several days in a row. If I cut back, it quickly goes away. I'm no doctor, but I think ears just need some air every once in a while.
