The last 2 headphones I used, since at least 15 years back, had some foam cups with an inner circumference large enough to accommodate my ears. So the cups actually rested on my cranium, completely engulfing each ear.
Like this image:
From what I gather from FransN and some comments on the Internet, the gap in the 7506's is not that big, so they rest ON the earlobe, they don't completely engulf the ear, but Diki says the exact opposite????
I have normal size ears (at least I don't fly if the wind is blowing). Thankfully, as my father's ears are Abe Vigoda size!!!!
Diki, FransN, Can you measure what the inner dimensions of the "gap" are on the 7506??? that would be a pretty good indicator, I will be able to compare with the headphones I have and make a conclusion.
its oval shaped as far as I can tell.
