I'm looking for some over the ear headphones,wired


Recommended Posts

I need a nice pair of headphones that are wired and over the ear, they can not be Bluetooth. I can only hear from one side, so I do not require anything fancy. Noise cancelation would be nice, but are not a requirement.

I bought this one maybe a year ago. I got  them cheaper, but they are a GOOD budget headset.

I don't even use the microphone. Mic is detachable.  Good noise cancelling and OK Bass.

I got Sennheiser HD 599SE from amazon (de) more than an year ago. Quite happy with the ergonomics as I'm using them for couple of hours each day. Sound is good as well but that is subjective (if you are used to boomy bass, might sound a bit flat).

I would recommend anything from AKG. I know you don't want bluetooth, but my Y50BT's served me very well for a long time.

Those look nice, but I can not use Bluetooth on the computer which is where I would be using the headphones

Hello,

I have had good results with Audio Technica, Bose, Jabra, Plantronics, Sennheiser, and SONY headphones in the past.  The last couple of headphones I purchased were hybrid corded/Bluetooth models, but worked just fine when plugged in.

A friend of mine who is deaf in one ear uses a FIIO-brand DAC/amplifier to convert/mix stereo audio into one monaural output.  You might want to look into something like that as well.

Thanks, @goretskyI am looking at the DAC, but they have quite a selection, and I'm not sure which one to consider. I went with Seinheiser HD 400S https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NFQ9FQQ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details, they will be here tomorrow.
