Recommendations for headphones for people with small ear canals - Suzie


Posted: Feb 12, 2013

Dear Friends:

I seem to have tiny ear canals and openings and because of that my Spectra headphones broke and now I would like recommendations about headphones would be good for me, with my small ear canals.  Do you recommend the stethescope type headphones?  I saw a brand on line on the Dictation Warehouse called Grundig Swingphone USB headset, has anyone heard of this brand and if so the pros and cons of this brand.

I would like recommendations.  Thanks.

Fondly,

Suzanne

Same problem here. I found tiny ear buds that fit without - hurting at Dollar General. nm

I use another Sony wireless headset and LOVE IT!!! You just have to make sure that nothing crosses the path of the receiver, or you lose transmission.

It's tricky when you have 17 cats, like me ... but it can be done. :}

Does anybody know what happened to the original thread for this? Was there a problem with - my Radio Shack headphones suggestion?

Or did something else happen that I missed in the interim? What a waste for me to have spent all that time on that reply.

Small-bowel Versus Small Bowel
Jun 08, 2015

I've always just used "small bowel," but then noticed most put "small-bowel," I assume to differentiate it as being part of the intestine as opposed to a small, or little bowel.  Okay, that makes sense, so I stated hyphenating small-bowel.  However, I just got marked off by QA for putting in a hyphen!  No matter what you do or don't do, you're screwed!  I do believe they just look for ways to antagonize so you'll never feel appreciated.  ...
