• I'm looking for perhaps the impossible.

    Headphones / ear phones / IEMs that can be worn for 10+ hours a day, 6 days a week.

    I don't need noise isolation or cancellation, I'm looking for comfort as I wear glasses and don't wish to wear headphones all day or at least want to be more comfortable still.

    I use ATH-R70x today... which are about as light and comfortable as I've ever found... but still, 10 hours a day is too much, ears get hot, and there's the ever present squeeze on the glasses.

    Any suggestions?

  • If its only for work calls / voice i say try aftershocks aeropex. I have used mine solidly for this purpose all through lockdown and they have been great. Its quite nice to be able to get up and walk about easily in calls.

    They're not great for music or anything with bass, but for talk and general usage youtube etc they've been perfect. I get very sore inner ears from IEMs so its been a good compromise for me.

    I see they do something for this purpose now:

    EDIT: Just seen that you dont want BT, which is fair enough but I will say I can stand on the opposite side on my flat 3 rooms away and talk without any problems with mine connected to my HP Elitebook. In fact on one extemely hot day this summer during a very long training session i had a brief cold shower with them on to cool off. I never have had a problem hearing anyone and no one complained about my voice but maybe thats just me.
