I have Sennheiser HD598 which are considered to be one of the most comfortable over ear headphones.
Absolutely not. I have it, also have HD650, PC360, PC38x and HD 800s, just of these 5 headphone of sames brand, the 598 is LEAST comfortable of them all. Only thing good about it is weight.

I have the same problem. I had the HD800 recently, and that one was the only headphone I've tried which I feel is comfortable enough for me. Arya aswell, but it's a bit tight. I ended up selling both because they are a bit expensive considering that I prefer the comfort of speakers, but I just wish that there were more cheap and comfortable headphones to choose from. My ears are pretty large, and I hate when they touch the pads. It happens with nearly any headphone except stuff like the oval shaped hifimans and the HD800s..
