Are the ear bud arms rigid with a little spring so that they will stay in my ears either over my head or behind it ?

IT doesn't have a spring. The plastic is a little flexible altought. I'm pretty sure that this is not the most confortable ear bud you will wear.It does stay behind the head, but not over.

I ware mine behind my head and have never had problems with them moving. I have used them when doing yard work. Love these headphones well worth the money.

when I put it on it wraps around the back of my neck which causes the ear buds to go in my ear. it stays in no matter what Im doing. The only problem I have is when it starts to hurt a little when I have them on for a long period of time. So I would move one ear bud above my ear to give it a rest. the other one stays in place. I love these. Im planning on ordering more. The instructions are not clear on how to pair. To pair, make sure its off, hold the middle button done until it starts flashing blue and red. hope I answered your question.

No. You have to adjust them just right so they can stay in the ears. They won't stay or be in place over the head. Only behind your head and how you adjust them behind your head will they stay in place.

I would recommend behind the head. Yes they stay in ears very well. I really like them for the price.

I am not sure. I found that the "clip" part that wraps around the ear, comes off the "stem" part that wraps around the ear bud stem. They are a silicone type material so are flexible and less apt to "break". I would like them better if they didnt have to be assembled but instead came as one unit to clip on the ear-bud.

Yes, you need to wear them over the ear. You can't separate the ear hoop from the bud.

Yes. The clips are flexible, so they are easy to put around the ear, and stay in place very comfortably.

Nope. They have an earpiece that goes behind your ear and this holds them in place.

I wear these over glasses and ear buds connected to my iPod. They fit kind of tight. They work great, but after a couple hours of yard work my ears are begging for some air. The head band is a strong flexible plastic material. I've tried to bend it to loosen up the fit but without any luck. The ear pads do slide up and down to adjust the fit vertically but there is no way to adjust horizontally for the pressure against the ears. I guess the comfort will depend on how wide your head is and how long you wear them.

The headband's 'springiness' is fixed. Having said that, it is fairly loose to begin with and never gave me an issue for as long as I used this headset. Note that they may even be too loose if you're going to move your head around a lot while wearing them (I would not recommend energetic dancing with this headset).

No, these things fall off with little effort. You might want to consider over the ear/side headphones instead of these.

I use the optional attachments that help secure the buds within the outer ear, and I've never had a problem with them falling off. I use them trail running and, though I don't make sudden movements, I do look all around me and not just straight ahead.

I am not sure what you mean by arms but I do know that I have used several different ear bud/head phones and some work much better than others. For some reason the $15 cheap head phones worked better than ear buds and much more comfortable.

Not exactly. The over-the-ear swings around on the hinge and the ear bud can be moved up and down as well as rotate "in and out". The net effect is that you can have the ear buds fit perfectly on your ear and stay that way. Due to the size of the ear bud (part of the reason for the great performance), you cannot exactly push them into the ear, but rather right on top of your ear canal. Hope this makes sense. I highly recommend them.

Yes, the ear buds have a unique shape that allows them to position well. I am 372 lbs and I ride an exercise bike that has handles that move forward and backward while pedaling. Even while peddling very fast, these cheap panasonics hold steady.

The sound is great in the ears but spring pressure is stronger around ears than I like for long periods of time. No worse with glasses than similar over the ear headphones.

It probably largely depends on your ears, but for me, I often wear them pretty much all day and hardly notice them. Their shape lets them fit in easily and securely: they don't push against my ears, but they're not so loose they're falling out either. The gumy material isn't like a gel or anything, but it's softer than just plastic, and is in my opinion a comfortable material to have in contact with your skin for long periods of time.

They stay in place while running. In my case they go over my ears, but i think this depends on your ears size.

Yes, they are over the ear. I would also say they are fairly comfortable, but they do get annoying after having them on your head for a while.

They should ... they're too big for me length-wise (I have small ears too, although maybe not very small), but it doesn't affect me since the thing that goes behind the ear keeps them in place nicely.
