Stretching will work. My DT 880s hurt when I first got them, now they are forget-your-wearing comfortable.

Yeah beyers have pretty high clamp force out of the box. I stretched mine out on my pc case when I had them.

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.
