While I think they look cool (though I don't know if a <a href="http://www.geeksugar.com/1883559" >headphone-sporting starlet</a> would wear them), I have serious concerns about comfort. Can square pads feel that great? </p> <p><span class="inline left"></span></p> <p>They certainly don't look like they would cradle your ear like round pads would, and furthermore, if they don't cradle them as much, are you really getting the audio benefits of over-ear headphones? The audio benefits are why I sometimes wear these kinds of headphones, after all.</p> <p>What do you think? Do you like the angular look?</p> <!-- no strip poll --><form action="/1896703" method="post" id="epoll_view_voting"> <div><div class="poll"> <div class="vote-form"> <div class="choices"><div class="form-item"> <label>Wesc Rectangle Headphones: Love or Leave? </label> <div class="form-item"> <label for="id-0-1896703" class="option"><input type="radio" id="id-0-1896703" name="edit[choice]" value="0-1896703" class="form-radio" /> Love it!</label> </div> <div class="form-item"> <label for="id-1-1896703" class="option"><input type="radio" id="id-1-1896703" name="edit[choice]" value="1-1896703" class="form-radio" /> Leave it!</label> </div> <div class="form-item"> <label for="id-2-1896703" class="option"><input type="radio" id="id-2-1896703" name="edit[choice]" value="2-1896703" class="form-radio" /> I think it's _________.
