Denon AH-C351k has short, asymmetrical cabling - it is designed for armband use / clip. It has an extension for non-sport use.

Arun, I have what I consider a smallish-sized head. I often "close" headphones, put them on, and only have to extend them a very small amount, if at all. The DT880 have never given me a problem with being loose. They are among the most comfortable headphones that I have used, if not the most comfortable (and I've used a fair number of headphones). If you like to jump around and throw your head back and forth while listening to music, I'm not sure if these headphones (or any) would stay on. However, you're just sitting/standing, working at a desk, watching tv, playing a game, or similar, then I would not anticipate a problem. Arun, I have what I consider a smallish-sized head.

I would say that the ear bud foam tips that you are using are too small. I also have the comply tips which I unfortunately got one size too small with similar results. Comply also makes sports tips which are supposed to stay in your ears better. I would recommend buying those in the next size bigger tips.

These are not large headphones. I've tried them with people who have big heads and small heads and no one has ever complained. Usually with headphones you have to worry about them being too small. It's definitely worth a shot.

I just read your comments and was wondering which product you were talking about. I also have a hard time finding a bluetooth or head phones that stay on my ears. I have almost completely given up on a bluetooth, but was considering trying one of the bluetooth headsets that go behind your neck or over your head? Any suggestions?

Sorry for the delay. You know I just went over and pulled out the headphones and opened them full out. Then I put them on my head and YUP...they fit. I measured my head from one ear canal to the other ear canal (over my head) and it is 16". The headphones fit comfortably and are extended with about 1 inch to spare. Hopefully, these will do for your son. I love them and it is great to know that the sound is limited to protect our precious children. Besides, the headphones have a good feel to them. They are not heavy but they are not flimsy either. I highly recommend them and hope you and your son enjoy them - I know that I do. God bless and Merry Christmas. Sorry for the delay.

Hey thank you very much for your info. Is there any better MP3 players? Like which ones?Thank you once again!

It is indeed a custom / proprietary plug that goes into the headphone end of the cable, not your standard 3.5mm. from close examination, it seems that the plug is slightly longer, and maybe reaches a clip slightly further inside the jack than a normal 3.5mm plug. I am also disappointed by this, but sony doesn't sell their own cables on the side to make money either, so I don't know what's up. anyway, if you want more cables you'll need to call sony's customer support for them

I feel like you can get an extension cable, if that is what you are talking about, but then you possible need adapters, it depends on what size jacks the cable is made for and what you are using it for. However I know for sure they make extension cables for headphones, I know because I've often thought of purchasing one for this.

I'm 6'1 and it reaches to my my waste if I want to clip it there. Usually clip to my shirt collar though. Sounds great, works great, only issue is they last only a little over 4 hours. So for international flight you would need another set of headphones. But cross country work fine.

Thats a personal preference question. Could it be done? Yes. Would I find it comfortable personally, no. I think they would be too large, however, I've seen people working out with large headphones on so its a personal preference.

Your are correct about the length of the cable. I found it to be too short for my use and DIYed a cable. You can find a longer headphone cable but you must ensure that it has the appropriate 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo plug with extended shaft, similar to what you will find for portable music players or cell phones. The end connecting to the left side must be the type that will insert into the recessed connection, like the extended shaft on this Amphenol plug: http://www.mouser.ie/ProductDetail/Amphenol-Audio/KS3PC-AU/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMumZtdVBplilw2%2fibSMC4t6

91" from plug to "V" where your earbud cords split...the earbud cords are also generous. I had one bad pair of these and had to send them back, but since then they have worked liked champs and I love them. Own two pairs and would definitely buy another. So if you happen to get a bad pair, just return them and Amazon will do right by you and you will be happy with them I am sure.

I was given the recommendation to buy these buy a friend. When I received mine, I really wished that when I was an athlete I had a pair like these. In my opinion, they are the best athletic wear headphones I have ever recieved. Of course, they're not going to be 100% tangle free all the time, but its rare for my pair to due such. My friends would agree, they're favorite part about these is when going on runs they don't tangle. Since I thought they were brilliant,I gave all my friends who are major athletes some for Christmas. All of them have loved these headphones. My suggestion would be that if you are looking for headphones to meet the requirements you have stated, As long as you do not mind paying a little extra for this feature I would say they would be beneficial for you.

I had a pair of these for the last 4-5 years, best headphones I have ever had. They finally went kaput, and I could not find another pair at any store I went to. I bought several other sport type headphones and nothing fit nearly as well or had sufficient sound quality or bass. I just ordered two pair here on Amazon to ensure I wouldn't have to change headphones for a long time. Money well spent. :)
