Clamp force was tight, as someone pointed out in the comments, but you can safely stretch the metal parts of the sides of the headband and that will reduce the pressure of these in the head. Also, you can stretch them back to the opposite side and they will be just as before, if you overdid it. I can now use them for hours.
When I first bought them I felt they weren't anything special, since they lack in the bass department and also in the treble compared to many consumer headphones. But after getting used to them and rediscovering my music library (hearing things that I couldn't hear before) I can't stop wanting to listen to music everyday through them. They're specially great for music with with acoustic instruments, for jazz, for music with vocals.
Even though they're also limited in the soundstage, you might be wondering as I first did "how can these be any good when they're lacking in so many areas". I think that's because they somehow emphasize through their excellent mids the best qualities of most music. Also the "narrow soundstage" makes music feel really intimate.
I'd recommend them to people that are willing to have some patience while their brain adjusts to these. I didn't have any choice to return them since I exported them but I think I'd probably have done it if I was in the US because at first I was underwhelmed. Nevertheless, I'm now very glad to have them and will be listening to music through them for years!

For those who know more... How much would you have to spend to get a noticable step up from these ? Hifiman? Planar ?
