This is a fascinating remark, because I recently noted that I could copy
a weak signal in the middle of a lot of noise better by holding the
phones in my hand with the ear cushions together and putting the
cushions up to my ears.
Something is going on here that is worth pursuing.

Many years ago, while a high school senior with a part-time relief op

on the Holy Frequency was really bad, lay the cans on the desk. Somehow,
this lowers the noise and not the signal. The VA has given me some very
good hearing aids, they don'w work under the headphones, but using them
with the headphones on the desk does often improve the SNR of very weak
signals.
