Do these headphones sit over the head or around the back of the neck?

I do not use headphones. I use ear buds and I have my own. This is a very simple little machine. No cameras, telephones or music just AM/FM radio which is what I like

The head phones fit over the top of your head and fit comfortably in your ears. You can still hear sounds around you with them in place and with the music on. Phil Hunt

Sarah, the headphones sit on top of the head. Great little radio that broke down and stopped working 3 weeks after I bought it. I only used it for walking entertainment and took good care of it, now I have to see if the seller will send me another or refund my money. Just be sure you get some kind of limited warrentee. Joe

I no longer use the "headset" that came w/ this radio. It does sit on top of my head. I have also worn it behind, resting on my neck, and in front. I prefer earbuds.

Hmm...well the 'headband' really does not go on your head as more traditional headphones might. It really rides on the neck. Or at least that's how I use them. So in other words, the ear pieces hang from your ears, with the large curved part riding on your neck. Hope that makes sense. This is the best example I could find no short notice - http://reviews.mtbr.com/review-qak-thump-blu-headphones/thump_blu_wearing

No, these are "on ear" headphones. They just rest on your ears, they don't go over the ears.

They are over the ear and I have the MDR- 1bt they are bluetooth headphones.

The ear pads press against the ears. The headset goes around the back of the head. If you have a large head, it might be uncomfortable due to the stretch.

For me, they are slightly over the ear. I believe they will be on the ear for some though.

they do rest at the ear canal. however, my pair stopped working almost immediately. I charged them for the third time and the charge didn't hold. i really liked them and loved the wireless technology so this was disappointing.

They sit on the ears...not around/over them...any excessive forwards/backwards motion I would thinkwould unseat them...but overall they're comfortable to wear for about 30-45 mins...I hope this helps.

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 over the ear...circumaural. The cups are large and encircle the whole ear. They don't rest on any part of my ear. They are EXTREMELY comfortable.

Partially, depends on your ears and head. A big issue is Amazon listing these as "over ear" when they are Supra-aural (On ear).

They fit around the back of your neck then each of the ear pieces loop around the ear. I have purchased 4 of these for 4 different people including myself and none of us have had an issue with tightness.

They're more "on the ear", than "over the ear" -- they don't have contact points on your skull or jaw, if that's what you're asking. They are super comfortable, and block noise pretty well, in my opinion.

Yes they fit over the ear but they are a bit heavy. They sound really good for the money I wouldnt buy the beats.

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.

I think these would be characterized as "On The Ear". While they are very good headphones (and the only Bluetooth 4) they do have a fairly strong "spring" effect on the head. Some people have complained about that. It makes for a firm fit on the head and that makes them almost as sound proofed as Over-The-Ear models. Hope this helps.

There are several variations. One fits in the ear canal with a plastic piece wrapping over and behind the ear. There is also a padded earpiece that sits on one ear being held by a band going either over the top or behind the head...like headset but only sitting over one ear. The one in the ear seems loose and not too secure. There is no attachment that cups over the ear like an audiophile headphone.
