Well the Momentums definitely aren't going to fit Alan Greenspan.



It's not the size of the ears but how you use them that counts. (So I've been told!!) ;)

He'd have to roll those flaps up to get them in. Not ideal....

i never liked these when i tried them. they did sound bit sharp to me when i tried them  before. i liked the hd558 much better when i was comparing the 2 cause they had whole bunch of headphones on display at the store when i went.

Always had a problem with the seal of the Momentums. And, ahem, I do resemble Greenspan so.... anyway, hived it off to my nephew. He is very happy with it.

Focals are even worse? Is that just for the fit being bad, or does that factor into making them impossible to sound right like the Momentums?

Their fit stinks (basically on ear with a strong clamp), but it doesn't undermine their good sound.

I apparently am the only one who actually liked the momentum quite a bit here  :)p13

I don't have small ears (narrow head, though) but these were comfy and sounded very good for warm cans. I was considering them at some point but cannot really justify them since I barely travel and prefer IEMs to Headphones when not home (they mess my hair  :)p8).

The momentum would be perfect on ears for Alan Greenspan!
