Headphone recommendation with a weird twist...
So, I need some recommendations on headphones, but I have a weird requirement. I do Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and as a result have developed some slight "cauliflower ear". Basically, parts of my ear have been flattened out and are a little "lumpy". It's not too noticeable, but the problem that I have is that some headphones put a lot of pressure on the ear itself and that causes me some discomfort.

I have the AIAIAI TMA-1s right now. I actually like them a lot for DJing: the sound is great...I only have them on both ears when I am cueing, otherwise they are around my neck or on one ear with the other earcup tucked behind my other ear. So they are pretty comfortable for that use...but I can't just sit and listen to music with them for a long time (e.g., a few hours) because they put too much pressure on my ears.

I was considering the V-MODA Crossfade LP2 and the Ultrasone DJ1 Pro as they seem to me to be more around the ear vs. on the ear. Any thoughts on either of these, or something else?

Also, I tried the Pioneer HDJ2000 and didn't like them...so they are out. And somehow, just on principle I don't want any of the Beats by Dre...
