Are these over-ear or on ear headphones? Also, are the pads thick enough that your ears won't hit the speaker?

These are over the ear. They cover my GF ears great, which means that the majority of the time she can't hear. They are decently thick so your ears should not even touch.

Yes, the pads completely surround the ear. Make sure your computer will play your own voice through the headphones as you talk, because otherwise it's hard to know how loud you are talking.

The headphones have "on the ear" pads, not over the ear. They still have great sound.

the headphone speaker fits over the whole ear. With on the ear phones, the speakers just cover a portion of the ear. If you ever see the Beats by dr. Dre headphones, those are a good example of over the ear phones.

These headphones have great quality sound, & for ON the ear phones are the best to me. Any background sound is not apparent if u turn the vol up by only 1/3 - 1/2. If u will be listening most of the time with a lot of or loud background noise, then OVER the ear phones will excel for that, but they typically will cost approx $100 more. Over the ear phones are built to block loud, and/or constant background noise, but the drawback to them is your ears will get hot, so by design they both have their benefits/limitations.

Depends. These have a strong spring. My problem with them is the pressure points are forward which causes the actual headphones to slip and/or roll forward. You are constantly adjusting them. They are impossible to lie down with them on. On the positive, they sound amazing and they do very well at blocking out the noise. The lambskin ear pads are comfortable. I chose these because they did not go over the ear.

These are made for smaller children, so for the intended use yes they are over the ear. They are the most comfortable headphones I have purchased for my daughter--BY FAR! The light is not too bright and can be turned off. She uses them to watch Netflix or other movies and listen to music on her tablet. They are also the best sounding headphones for children I have come accross.

That depends on the size of your speakers. The foam pad ear cover is round but at 2-5/16 they may be able to stretch and cover your headphones. If this size is too big there is a smaller size ear cover available.

Because there is significant padding, I don't think others can hear. I absolutely love these headphones and recommend highly. They are comfortable to wear, but because they sit over the ear, they can cause pressure if you wear glasses.

yes, they are over the ear, not on-the ear type. The headband is stretchable and may can meet different people's head tastes.

Negative T. Tom...no earpad compression on my Sennheiser HD650 or 424s when they are on. You can open the sliders on your phones and there's absolutely no pressure on the pads. They just hang there. Good value. alejandro

They're an on ear size. They're by far the most uncomfortable pair of headphones I've ever worn but also some of the best I've heard. I had some over ear turtle beach cushions I wasn't using so I replaced the old ones with those and now they're comfortable.

They are considered "on ear" headphones so no. You may want to look at "over the ear" style headphones.

not really, they're almost as clear as my over the ear headphones. surprisingly all the pairs I ordered still work too. I'm pretty hard on headphones.they're ten times better than generic apple headphones. I think I want to order some more of these when the ones I have wear out.

They are over the ear headphones. They have great sound but are not really noise canceling, so you can;t use them for things like mowing the yard. But they are great for going for a walk or things like that. Hope this helped!

They're about 1/4" - 3/8" thick. Yes, you can feel them, but they are fairly comfortable if you don't put a lot of pressure directly on the place in the headband where the speakers are located. You can move them further forward or backward for greater comfort.

They sit on top of your ear, not all the way around. The cups are just over 2.5" in diameter. That said, they sound amazing. They obviously don't block sound as well as a large pair, but I love mine. They last a long time too - my first pair lasted from 2006 through 2012, and I used them for hours every week.
