tell me about your headset, can you put it on one handed

[Threepwood]

hi, I can only use my right arm, and hand, my left arm and hand doesn't work, so I need a headset that I can put on with only my right hand, can you do this with your's?
If so, what make is it, I tried my old one that I had before the stroke, and tried a no name one from amazon, but I don't want to buy blind a second time as it is too hard to get on one handed
thanks in advance, just let me know

What about a decent set of ear buds?

I've tried but I have really dry itchy ears caused by my siezure medication, I've tried, but it just makes my ears horribly itchy in the long run, thanks for your suggestion though!

philips fidelio x2hr are really easy, dual metal band so can adjust them as well. If you need a mic the something like a modmic wireless will do

thanks for trying, I appreciate that

I can put on my Sennheiser with 1 hand but it’s not easy. It require putting it on the back of my neck and slowly move it up. First right ear, head back then left ear. Using my right hand.

I think it might be easier using earbuds?

that's thrfour votes for the senheiser, looking good!

irst, sorry to hear about your stroke mate.

Second, in my opinion and experience, Sennheiser headphones are pretty decent for not having excessive "head clamping" force.

As such, I feel that I could get my Sennheiser HD598s on with one hand only.

These have been superceded by the following models at around that price-point (slightly below, and slightly above) -- I'd say it could do no harm to check them out:

Sennheiser HD 560S
Sennheiser HD 599

thank you, and thanks again for pointing me in the right direction of the more recent models

good shout thanks, yes I will
