Meze 109 Pro Suspension Strap and Clamp Force (alien.top)

Hi guys,

So I've been searching for an upgrade to my setup for quite some time now. Considered the Focal Elex, then the Clear, then the ZMF Auteur and finally landed on the Meze 109 Pro.

This headphone seems perfect to me. However, one thing does worry me slightly. I have a small head at 21.5-22 inches, and have heard that the suspension strap tension and overall clamp force is quite low on the 109 Pro.

I'm worried that these will endlessly slip off my head, and may even affect sealing. Question is, is there anything I can do to increase the clamp force, increase the tension of the strap or just any other way to make sure these stay in the same place on my tiny noggin?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

There is no way to adjust anything with the 109’s. The general consensus regarding the clamping force is that it’s tight, for me it borders on tight to a point that it causes discomfort in my lower jaw with prolonged use. I alternate my 109’s with my HD600.
