what type of ear piece recommended for an elderly person?

Try searching on Amazon for single ear piece or ear buds. There are several to choose from with soft material for your ear. Also, you can use lightweight headphones that have a built in switch that will send the sound to to both ears, since the radio output is mono.

No ear fatigue. I listen to all kinds of music: Ambient/Smooth Jazz/Classic Rock/New Age/Southern Rock...all types....all sound levels...for HOURS! As far as gaming....I'm too old for games (66.)

I would probably go for the standard mike attached to the earpiece with the proviso that it may be necessary to secure the mike/earpiece in place. Note: the shaft holding the mike is quite short so some could find it did not hold the mike close enough to the mouth for clear sound.The only clear answer is to try it (the one you assess may be best for your application) and see if it works for you.

There is a comfortable ear loop that fits over your ear. I can wear it all day without discomfort.

the soft pieces should fit in your ear. it takes little getting used to at first, but they rarely fall out during exercise. they come in two sizes (2 sets of 2).

TV ears is an excellent choice. There are two models available. Twin ear and single ear. That is two sets in stead of just one! Just remember that you must be in or near perfect line from the transmitter. My sister-in-law has been using them for many years now and it does help for the TV is not loud! As for the tone setting, it is neither here nor there. If you are hearing impaired, the bass or treble will not make that much of a difference. She has never had to change a battery yet. The base charges the batteries when not in use. Hope this helps!

Well you can wear over shoulder or put in pocket but it needs to be within about 16-20 inches from ear.. be sure to purchase extra batteries the size is not a common one so I'd buy what's available on line for a good price.. I also have another earpice, the micro one.. lil magnet that you drop in ear and use a loop like the other one but the battery is a 9v and it works the same just last longer on battery..

Sennheiser CX-300, far and away. Those Senns are probably the best you'll get under $50, however another contender would be the JVC Marshmellow which sounded better than my $120 Shure earbuds after a little tweak (can find instructions for that on head-fi, if you're interested).

Any over the ear would work just fine for an 8yr old. Otherwise I personally enjoy the beats by dre but those are expensive and I don't really thing necessary for a young person. I'd say try Sony brand?

Get a an over-headset w/ mouthpiece from Staples, Amazon, etc & plug it into the hole in the side. Then you're hands-free to multi-task AND not cricking your neck! :)

Dear Mr. Gluck....I also wear hearing aids (Siemens Cielo Life open fit) I purchased a FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier from Amazon. The sound performance is truly amazing. Try reading up on it and get back to me. I have been using mine over a year now and I love them. Bill P. Conyers, Ga.

The usual recommendation is to buy the unit for your weakest ear. Note that the folks at CS 10 have just released a new unit - I suggest you call them to make sure which unit you should buy.

After much searching, I found JVC HA-FX55 series headphones with 3 different ear attachments and the smallest fit my 8 year old daughter (FINALLY!) Sony also sells a similar more expensive type with 3 ear pieces.

you could use it just as well, the waterproof is only on the top side but so far I find it works well with a dementia spouse. It does not make a noise and seems comfortable enough.

I purchased these headphones for my elderly mother and she never used them, saying they were a little uncomfortable to wear - they squeezed the ear too tightly. However, the volume is excellent and you can hear the caller very well while talking. As far as noise canceling, I've never actually tested them for this. I personally use a Plantronics dual headset and M10 volume control - had this for 20 years and works well and very easy to wear and use.

Hi - Yes, they should be very good. I already had our 8-year old granddaughter wear these and they're very comfortable, nice and cushy and they stay in place. And they're adjustable as well and they keep the sound inside the ear piece better than more costly ones I've used, so others won't hear much.
