    So I used this headset last night for 3 hours on FG and I was constantly adjusting it because it was hurting my ears after a while. I love the wireless ability and the clarity, it worked great, but as far as comfort, it was uncomfortable. Maybe I just have too big of ears for this set. Glad it was cheap. Any other suggestions? Does it need to break in?

    I did notice when I purchased the new set that is fit tighter than the set I had been using 4 years, so it does appear to stretch over time. Other than setting the headband adjustment to max, and if you do that I recommend reinforcing it with electrical tape, a tip I picked up in reviews when I bought the first set in 2014. I have trouble with any kind of headset because I wear glasses,if the pressure does bother me I just slip them off to wear on just one ear to redistribute the pressure. Nor do I know if there are anything on the market like extra cushioning for headset earphones.

    I'm going to try to make something work (memory foam pieces?) because the performance of the headset is really good. Thanks

    Just got the SteelSeries Arctis 7. Worn it for all of 3 minutes. Exceptionally comfortable. Will let you know sound etc later. Really do like the retractable mic.

    I have a largish head <grin> and many headsets feel uncomfortable for me after a an hour or so.
    Im using a Logitech headset but quite a bit more expensive than this one.

    If you Aussies didn't hang upside down on the bottom of the world maybe your head wouldn't swell so much?

    But how do you get the mic to work properly with all those tentacles in the way damned?

    Oh I really only need the headset to hear my players as none of them have yet developed telepathy.
    I thought about teaching them but I found so many interesting things inside their heads I began to wonder if it would be prudent allowing them into mine...

    I'm looking at this headset myself. Glad it's working out for you, now I just need to convince myself to click the "Buy Now" button on Amazon.
