Does RAZER still offer true over ear headsets?

I bought the Kraken v3 pro last month to replace my aging man o war headset and noticed the moment I opened the box that this new headset wasn't a true over ear headset like every headset I've bought the past 20 years. I've asked everyone I could at Razer if this is the new size they are going with on all headsets from here on out or not, but haven't received any kind of answer. This seems to be the last place I can ask. Has Razer gone to the "one size fits most" style like every other manufacturer out there or is this size reduction only on the kracken v3 pro? I'm asking as a concerned patron of Razer since it directly effects whether or not I can remain a customer. The previous size allowed me to wear their headsets for up to 18 hours, but the new size has forced me down to about an hour due to the discomfort of pressure on my ears. Hoping someone has an answer, thanks

Kraken V3 pro (personal review)(smaller than before)

For starters I've been buying RAZER headsets since the beginning, and have always enjoyed the audio quality. I've also been very happy with the true over ear design of every RAZER headset I've bought, until now. The thx is interesting, but running it regular works better depending on the input from the source. Now one thing to note about the kraken v3 pro is they are smaller than their predecessors. All of the previous headsets I've bought were true over ear headsets where this one is "one size fits most" like every other brand out there. So comfort is now an issue for me. I used to be able to wear their headsets for up to 18 hours, but not these. They press on the cartilage and cause pressure sores. Keep in mind this won't be true for everyone but is true for those of us with slightly larger ear sizes. I do like that you can run the different settings (thx or non thx) depending on what I'm listening to though the switching capability of the headset is a little clunky. The headset
