Does anyone have any suggestions for pain over the ears where these lie over the ear??

I do not experience pain with these headphones. I selected this style to avoid the pain that I experience when earbuds are too large.

I used a hair dryer to soften the plastic and reshaped them a little. It worked but no matter what after a while they still get uncomfortable. So I switch from these to ear buds.

These don't rest on your ears, they rest around your ears.. as long as you adjust the headband so it is resting right, i have worn then for 6-8 hours with no discomfort.

Hi Carol: I bought these for my niece so I asked her your question and she said that she sleeps with them in her ears, but laying on your side with them in your ears is a little painful! I hope this helps...I would be more than happy to answer anymore questions that you may have. I know that she really likes these ear buds. I bought her a regular Bluetooth prior to this and she didn't like it at all.

They will probably rest on your ears. I have average size ears (I think) and I can barely fit the cushions around my ears.

Perhaps, I would be one of few who had exactly same issues you are asking. It depends on the size of your ear. My ears are small and it hurts my ear so much both the beginning of the ear canal and behind of the ear, the skin of between ear and head. It not only takes a while to place it in the ear, but also does it not stay where it should be. However, my husband raves about it. He says this piece is the most comfortable one he has ever used. He barely feels anything on his ear. I gave it up.

Having the same problem but that's the difference between an ear bud and a full headset. The weight of the unit is pulling the unit down against the ears causing the discomfort.For the price, one would like a little more comfort. I tried this...along with the ear hooks, I attached a small lanyard to the unit and then put that around my neck to pick up some of the weight of the unit.Pressure relief about 60%. Helps when watching long period movies.Good luck

I'd say I have slightly larger than average ears. These fit over my ears with a little to spare. Seems like you need to find a pair and see how they fit on you rather than potentially wasting the $300

Yes 100% over the ear and VERY comfortable. I can game for hours or listen to my MP3 forever with these..LOVE EM..buy them, you won't regret it.

No doubt, they do work really well for ears. Just be clean about it. It literally took me like 2 minutes to do just one ear. And like 20 seconds for my friend to do the other.

I personally can't get them to be comfortable in my ears to begin with. If you don't mind things being inserted into your ears, i'm sure they would be fine. I find that they do not stay around my ears very well. I love the concept of them, but I am finding it difficult to use them for this reason. I will say the sound quality is great, and i've used them while on the phone and all the people i've spoken to said that they can hear me perfectly and never would have known that I was on a headset and not speaking directly into the phon.

I wear them a lot at work, bout 8 hours a day 5 days a week. They are horrible. They hurt really bad after about an hour. I now have red parts on the ears because of the irritation they cause. I would suggest using them for a limited time or buy some in the ear earbuds.

Sorry, I really don't know. I'm sure that you could sent them back to Amazon.They have worked fine for the 3 or 4 months that I've had them. And I use them almost every day. The only thing that I don't like about them is they sit on the ear, as opposed to over the ear.

Over-ear; as per the NoiseHush site, these are "Around ear" http://noisehush.com/i7

I also have very small ears & I din't find these to be comfortable. The ouside piece pressed into my ear; not the canal where the silicone tips goes, but the ridge of the ear outside. I've bought at least 5 different top-rated earbuds here on Amazon & all have been painful. I tried Skullcandy, JVC, Panasonic, iPhone, etc. But, I've just purchsed the JLabs JBuds J6 style, and they fit! The J6 style came with 7 sized tips, and the smallest ones actually worked for me. They cost considerably more then these, but well worth it to me to have comfortable earbuds.

Have not had that situation come up. I guess I would give them over the ear headphones and adjust the volume correctly.

Since these protrude from the ears, I wouldn't sleep in them. If you rolled over on them, they could push too far into your ear. I would suggest getting a softer, spongier ear plug to sleep in.

Yes, the complaints about these being uncomfortable are warranted. I've used my set for under an hour and I'm already looking to replace them. Be extra wary if you wear glasses while listening to these!
