I had the QC3 and they caused some sort of pressure pain ,do those have the same effect?

There is a much smaller sensation of pressure with the QC20's than with the QC15's. It also helps if you turn on the noise cancelling before inserting the ear buds.

Having the QC15 and then using the QC20 I couldn't feel anything from the earbuds. Maybe it was just the significant difference between the two, but they were very comfortable, produced a great sound, and did a remarkable job at noise cancelling.

I received the QC 25's last week, wore them twice and I'm sending them back. Had the same ear pressure issue and that is why I'm looking at the 20i's.

If you are speaking of pressure inside the ear then yes, there is some pressure from the noise cancelling. I have not found it painful though.

I had the QC20s and got dizzy from the pressure. These are much better. Even slept with them on for a few hours to drown out snoring at a retreat.

What you are sensing is not pressure, but lack of sound.Much like stepping into an anechoic chamber, its so quiet it hurts the brain.

The answers about pressure on ligaments sounds right to me... from an anecdotal point of view, it makes my elbow pain go away... I bought a second one so I will have it available when I bowl or play badminton. I had a pain in my elbow above and below the elbow, not sure why but after using the bandit the pain is reduced and my elbow feels much better. I don't know if it's just a placebo effect but for the cost I'm good with it. I highly recommend it. It also doesn't make my elbow sweat like the compression bands and elbow sleeves do. It doesn't smell after use... a side benefit. Hope this helps you decide to get one... you can't go wrong for the price The answers about pressure on ligaments sounds right to me... from an anecdotal point of view, it makes my elbow pain go away...

I have had no issues with mine. They do tend to have more punch so I had to adjust my slipper clutch. So far all good.

I'm wondering too because it did not feel or work the same. I won't be buying it again.

Yes, they are completely different because they are tailored to your particular feet and posture. You should go in to one of the many stores that have a pressure sensor (Bed, Bath and Beyod for instance) and check what works best for you. I've had these for over a year now and they really make a huge difference. I use them in my work shoes.

Haven't experienced any problems with mine, maybe you've been unlucky with a faulty pair.I am currently waiting for a new pair I've bought.Cheers

They'll probably cause some joint pain and muscle soreness for a few days after use the first couple weeks. After that, if you have problems you may want to use them less, which has solved practically all the issues I have had. Even if you lift heavy weights, like I do, you have to remember that you have not specifically trained your grip before. You have to build up to it.

Depends on the size of one's head and ears. Mine are fairly large and I did have this problem but overcame by gently pinching foam until it became soft. The P-leather was not damaged during the pinching process, Also I gently stretched the headband. If portability is not an issue, may I suggest the JVC HARX700 or HARX 900 - large headphones with huge cavities for the ear and are indeed comfortable. HARX 900 has better pads.

I'm familiar with only the QC3 and it is comfortable to use with glasses, except, of course with excessively thick glass frames.

They did with me but I have trouble wearing those type of earphones. However my friend did not have any problems with them.

I didn't know they had a problem with the trigger but the two I bought a few months ago both have a very await ove trigger. Be careful but I love mine.

The 'pressure' will not come from the weight of the earbud for sure (very light) but more from the flex of whatever tips you end up using. I personally use the triple rubber seal one and it leaves a little dent in my ears but I don't find it uncomfortable.

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'm also experiencing discomfort. Sometimes slight pain in my ear and sometimes some kind of dizziness... I'm using Bose QC20 in-ear earplugs.

I used mine for a couple of days and returned it, too uncomfortable, wished it worked....

No. Mine has pressure reading off 2-3 PSI. Since I know this I just adjust accordingly.
