Comfort with Behind the Ear Hearing Aids? I've tired MANY headsets with my "behind the ear" HAs. None are comfortable for long. How's the fit?

Very comfortable. I can hear well. Their location is important. To close and it sounds like a tunnel.

Fit is perfect. I have BTE hearing aids and this headset works great with them, volume control and all. This purchase was a replacement because my cat destroyed the first set. I was glad to be able to get it replaced. Definitely a good buy and product. Works with my work issued iPhone.

Pretty bad. Avoid it for long duration wearing while having glasses. The ear padding is faux leather and they tear overtime( they're really rock solid hard and it hurts). The Alpha version is much lighter and has actual soft leather earcups. I own both Tactic3D Rage and Alpha. I also wear glasses.. Look for headsets with on-ear or soft over the ear paddings.

I have not had any issues with the headset being fragile or too tight. If you leave the headset long enough they will cause discomfort but so will anything making contact with my ears for hours.

Well...difficult to tell. I have long ears and I found that even if the cups are big enough to accommodate them, it still feels tight. I am a gamer too, and other players say they can hear me nice and clear. The sound is nice, but my expectations that I would be able to hear from where a shot came or the direction of approaching footsteps have gone unfulfilled. I am not blaming the product, though, but my lack of a spiffy sound card (Realtek that comes with most laptops, is too basic for gamers). I think that the price and quality of the product are right, but I am not doing somersaults over it... :) Hope this helps... Well...difficult to tell.

I only have experience with the around the ear phones. I personally like them because they are more comfortable on my ears. They don't keep out the noise level as much as my cheaper ear buds, which surprised me. I do love the sound quality of the Bose headset. It is basically a preference for me because of the comfort level on my ears.

Yes, I wear this headset with two different pairs. One has a very thin light metal frame, and the other has rather thick rubbery ear grips. Obviously the thinner the frame the more comfortable you'll be, but you shouldn't have any issues with even a wider pair in your first hour of constant use. You can always lift the ear grips above the headphone cups so they don't pinch your head too hard. Looks a bit dorky, but feels nice.

I use them at the shooting range and they've been very comfortable for 1-2 hours use but they fit very snug to deafen sound. I would think that trying to wear them for long periods, like overnight, would become uncomfortable.

I wear glasses and I find the QC15s to be very comfortable. I can't stand having something push on my ears (it actually gets painful after a while) so the "over ear" option was the only way for me to go. Part of it may depend on how well your glasses fit (close to your head) as well.

It is quite comfortable, you hardly notice that you have them on. I opted for some upgrade ear cushions that I bought on Amazon for $3.00, had to wait a few weeks since they came from Hong Kong. Now they are even more comfortable. The sound is enjoyable with a quality amplifier.

My mother's hearing has deteriorated so much I didn't use the earbud or earphones that came with the Pockettalker. I had a Bose headset handy. Using that she hears better than she's heard in years. A quality headset that fits snuggly over the ears should be quite adequate.

I have hearing aids, and just keep the ear cups on. There is no problems using the headset with the hearing aids and ear cups as they are designed for hearing aids specifically.

I think they feel like you would expect them to. it's not hollow plastic, so it feels denser, but it is very plasticky. People around you cannot hear what you are listening to. They are "open" in the sense that they aren't noise cancelling as much as one with leather or faux leather are, but they don't allow the speakers to be heard much even if the headset is around your neck.

I have small ears so after 3 hours or so of non stop use, I get tired. But my friend who has bigger ears can wear them longer. As for them being bright. I think that if you put the gain to 0 or every music you play isnt fluffed you will get true sounds. Not too much bass or mids or highs. Compared to Seinheissers which I love, its a close 2nd to those and those are amazing

I use to play Call of duty with these amazing headset for 10 to 12 hours straight, i never felt it was in my ears, that's why G930 is damn famous !!

Nice little headset otherwise too, huh? I found them to fit pretty comfortably myself, I liked them for the price and so forth; wouldn't pair for beans though. What a shame. That stinks. Either way: you're welcome.

My husband has told me these earphones are the most comfortable he has ever worn. The ear cups are oblong and the padded cushion rests gently on the outer ear so that the ear hole is not in any way impacted. He has experienced no ear hole pain and states that the sound quality is exceptional. I am very sensitive to earphones as are you and have found them to be comfortable when I have used them as well. I hope this is helpful.

Personally, I found it very uncomfortable. I only tried 2 sizes(which I picked using the fact that I usually wear medium/small sized clothes). Both of them were comfy initially, but after 3-4 hours, my ears were hurting. Plastic can never be as soft a silicone(Bose). I bought the Bose Sie2 instead. I often use them for 8-9 hours a day with no discomfort at all.
