started to feel headaches and such from headphones, measured how many microteslas it emits or whatever, is this safe?

  Your headaches are likely because of the pressure of the headphones onto the side of your head (clamp force). The headphones might be too small for your head.

  Harmless radiation or negligible amounts of magnetism will not cause headaches.

    yuh, not too small though, very big headphones, i suppose its the pressure then

  Pressure and sound waves.

  Its more obvious than you think

  You could easily test your theory by wearing the headphones while they’re not playing anything. Or completely disconnected.

  Are these open or closed backed headphones?

  The closed backed ones can create a lot of pressure and hurt your ears and possibly give you a headache.

  My current headphones are open backed and way more comfortable compared to my last which were closed backed.

  You can hear outside sounds easier with the open backed ones though, but for me that is worth it.

      The frequency response might be fucked up from a “mod” causing your ears to hurt

  Very likely to be the physical force applied by the headphones, depending on how they are worn. I cannot use certain designs because they become uncomfortable even if only worn for short periods.

  Considering MRTs use 1.5-7 Tesla, I can’t imagine microtesla will be doing anything, unless you have a piece of metal in your head. Maybe it’s an ear infection or a migraine or something like that gets worse from the cup pressure. If it’s a problem, ask a doctor.

    i have misunderstood how tiny microtesla is compared to tesla

  Unless I’m missing something, magnets in headphones only emit very weak, static, fields, that have 0 effect on you.

    You missed the fact that OP looked for a complicated explanation instead of the obvious
