Hey guys, my old headphones are just about worn out. Looking for a new ones, just trying to find ones not too tight as I am a big guy, and most fit too tight. I am not a fan of ear buds for hearing protection.
Any ideas? I use ISOTunes Link. Over the ear with built in hearing protection.

When in doubt, set the hook.

I am on my second pair of ZVOX,first pair flew away without me,best noise cancelling blue tooth head phones I have had,I work in a very high noise environment and they just make everything flat,I can be one gate away from a running aircraft and hear my tunes just fine. Over the ear or ear buds? I seen the earbuds on amazon for $20 They are over the ear head phones,they run a couple of hundred new but you can find refurb for 60-70 dollars.I have tried the Bose and like the ZVOX better,but I already have severe hearing loss.

I had some Bose Sport ear buds that were great. Sounded awesome and never fell out of my ears. My wife lost them so I just bought a pair of $50 Amazon earbuds. Seem to do okay.

Bose noise - canceling over the ear rechargeable (USB cable) are what I have used since I purchased them almost 10 years ago.
Transatlantic flights, lawn tractor, and indoor shooting range they work. I already have moderate to severe hearing loss and I enjoy my Bose

What if I want to mow my lawn and not look like a complete goober while doing it? Wear the headphones only, no safety glasses and hard hat.

^^^IEMs Be careful though—the drivers are right next to your ear canal; so risk of tinnitus and other hearing damage increases. They do sound glorious though…you get precision, accuracy, and individual instrument separation for $50 you don’t see until you get into the $400 headphone range. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/04/full-30144-222221-img_6473.jpeg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/04/full-30144-222222-img_6474.jpeg)
