That happened to me with the Koss SB-45. The ear cups are smaller than those on the CM500, so they sat on my ears instead of around them. Really uncomfortable.

I had that experience when I tried on the very expensive aviation-style headsets which are being sold to hams, and which some guys find quite comfortable. And after a few years when I heard a local contester saying how comfy they were, I tried them on again at a hamfest, with the same result. :)
