Where to Buy

The headband is wide and padded to ensure comfort for extended periods of listening and the around-ear design reduces background noise. The earcups are padded and the padding can be replaced. This is also true for the cable, and this set includes both an additional set of earcup pads and an additional cable. The cable is detachable and locks securely into the headset with a bayonet clip. These phones also collapse for storage and include a portable carrying bag.
