need to buy a new set of headphones - Fatigued Fingers
Posted: Aug 28, 2013
I need to buy a new set of headphones and I was just wondering what are some of the good ones out there? I bought a really nice set, but they don't fit into the comuter. Thanks for any help you can offer!
Why not just get a headphone/headset adapter instead? - Then you can use your nice ones. nm

Most Comfortable Headphones Oct 15, 2009Which headphones do you like the best in terms of comfort and quality? Some of the ones that fit inside the ears, the earbuds, make my ears sore.

Comfortable Headphones Oct 18, 2009I've always used just cheap stereo headphones but I want to try some of the ones that are made specifically for transcription. The problem is the kind that fit inside my ears can hurt, the ones that are more rounded buds and have foam on them. What headphones do you recommend that are comfortable inside the ear? I tried some recently from a fellow MT and I think they were made by Lanier but I can't remember, but they seemed comfortable. Is Lanier the best also for sound quality?

What Type Of Headphones Do You Use? Why? Nov 11, 2013Another post got me wondering, what type of headphones / ear buds do you use and why?
I, personally, switched to (in-ear) ear buds about 5 to 6 years ago. I found a pair of Skull Candy (yes, odd name but good ear buds) that I loved and have used them since. They have a lifetime warranty (which I've used a couple times just due to daily use, and have never had an issue). I actually keep a backup pair in case they break, etc.
They're just the cheap ones, I belie ...
