Q: I'm looking for headphones for general use. I am a long time TMJ (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) sufferer and have been hesitant to drop a lot of money on a new headset that will just end up causing me extreme pain after a few hours. What headphones can I use?
A: If you have TMJ then many general headphone recommendations may not work for you because what's comfortable to many may be painful to you.
My suggestion would be that you audition headphones if possible before buying them.
However, some folks with TMJ prefer on-ear headphones or IEMs. You may want to consider the Senn PX100-ii, it is on ear, has very light pressure and is very comfortable (and I am one of those folks who typically find on-ears uncomfortable!)
And an IEM with a behind-the-ear wearing style may also be very comfortable for you if you have TMJ -- consider the Shure SE215.
