AIAIAI TM1- question

Can anyone tell me if these will fit on someone who has a small head?
I have no stores by me to try them out or anything.
I am thinking of getting these but not sure if they would just flop off my head.

Thanks

yes

There is a joke in there somewhere about DJ’s and big heads, I am sure of it.

:smiley:

Honestly, it’s risky. I don’t consider having a small head and still, they tend to flop of my head easily. Hope you saw this message on time.

Or maybe if it’s too late, what you can do is bend the thing that’s on the top of your head (i don’t know how that’s called, the thing between the cups), so you bend it using books or whatever, for several hours, it will make the headphones more fitted to your head.
Not sure it will work on a long-term though.

Yeah I have a small head and finding headphones that work for me seems hard. Headphones are either too heavy or too big.

So..I am have a small head- 6 3/8 hat size.

Can someone recommend some cans ?
I am looking at -
Pioneers 1000
AIAIA TMA-1
Ultrasone DJ1
Maybe Sennheiser but I dunno

Remember I have a small head and know Allen and Heath cans will not fit me.

You should be able to try on headphones there.

The don’t sell AIAIAI brand there.
I will check what they have just wanted a heads up on what brands might be something to check out.

I just bought some tma1s, literally a day ago.

I have a small head, and on the best “setting” of the headband i get little clamping force, but just enough that the sound isolation is ok for travelling, and they only slip off if i lean right forward quickly.

Been wrapping the cord around the band overnight to try and squeeze it a bit tighter, working a bit.

For djing they are fine, since i press the cup on with my hand when cueing anyway (1 ear).

And they do sound beautiful.

Only headphones ive found that clamp to my head are sennheisers, cheaper ones like hd 215s etc. and then i find them uncomfortable.

And I know they are lightweight which is good.
I am going to try this store in my hood and see if they have any open boxes.
I live by Pro Audio Star.

Having a small head sucks for hats, helmets, and cans…blech.

no.
my capsize is 7 and i tried them several times in the booth. slightly nodding my head to the music made them fell off of my head. best would be for you to try them out.

I would look at the Sennheisser HD-25 II’s if I were you. I have a small head (sort of, 7/7 1/4) and they fit great!

Last time I was in Brooklyn a couple months ago, the Fools Gold retail store 536 Metropolitan had them in stock. Call and ask: Fool's Gold

I went to Pro-Audiostar and bought AiAiAi Tma-1 and they are great!
They do not fall off my small head and the sound is just what I was looking for.
These will be good and they are very light.
Thanks for all the recommendations!
