Do these headphone cups pivot?
1716962
There are two axes in which something can pivot. vertically and horizontally. These head phones pivot horizontally, that is left to right, not up and down.

There are the two upside down U shaped brackets that connect the ear cups to the head strap. The ear cups themselves pivot (up and down) in that U shapped bracket but the bracket only rotates (slightly) at the joint where the bracket meets the headstrap. I would say that there is maybe 30 degress of rotation that the bracket can travel through at that connection point. It's enough to make sure that the cups rest comfortably over the ears and against the side of the head. The point where the braket meets the head strap only rotates itdoes not really pivot. The cups will not fold up into the area beneath the head strap like some more expensive folding headphones. I hope this helps.

Not completely out of the way for one-ear DJ-ing : just tilt slightly to fit the shape of your head.

Like in my review, they are, if you can get them at just the right angle. There's no 'locking' position, so you have to make sure they are on just right. This was one of my concerns when buying these, and they work pretty good when you go running. But like "R Squared" mentioned, you have to turn up the volume because they don't block out sound very good. I was looking for some headphones that weren't ear buds because those don't stay in my ears, but these are a lot bigger and bulkier than I thought. The actual ear pieces are pretty fat. And my audio jack ended up ripping away from the wire, but I have no idea why. In conclusion, I wouldn't get these for running.

Yes, they do. But the volume is very low no matter if you adjust it or not. I returned the product.

No I've never had that problem with them. They adjust really easily but at the same time they stay in place without a problem. The biggest thing though is that they aren't the most comfortable headphones when worn for a really long time and I wasn't very impressed by the bass they had at the price I paid for them...Overall they are a really stylish pair of headphones with decent quality

The earcups have a variable length, but they DO NOT fold. The sound quality is superb.

Yes, but the headphones doesn't fit as shown. It works as is for my workouts.

They do not protrude - they are flush with the case and they flip open to easily allow the usb and earphone plugs to plug in without interfering. Case is well designed for my MotoG and I have no clearance issues with it (bought my MotoG phone from cricket wireless).

I find they tend to wiggle out a little bit. They dont fall out, but they do not stay snuggled in tight and require constant adjustment. Sou d quality is moderate considering one is not an audiophile.

The pads swivel slightly. Whether they are comfortable, I guess, depends upon your head. For me, they press too hard on the tops of my ears and too lightly at the bottoms just wher one needs the pressure for a good acoustical seal. I tried these and another brand of similar design, but the only ones that were comfortable and, to me, had easier to use controls, look more like conventional earphones (MEElectronics Runaway). It's easy to "find" the controls while wearing them, and the earpieces pivot more freely. They are the only ones I use now.

Yes, they stay firmly in place. I have a cube mounted under my desk and one of my plugs (with 3 prongs) is in totally upside down and it is staying in there just fine.

I believe they do. Just make sure you don't buy the studios that band will not fit. One last thing make sure the band is the color your headphones are. They put out many colors and only few replacement headbands. Good luck!

As phrased your question could be interpreted two ways so I'm going to be nitpicky. The metal portion of the headphone connector is straight BUT the plastic portion that the metal pin is mounted in is at a 90° angle to the pin. I think this means that these headphones are not for you.

Yes they are symmetrical. Asymmetrical length cords are usually found on headsets which include a microphone. These are just headphones. Really decent ones.

I haven't used those in particular, but I can attest that these simply don't fall out. I use them at the gym, commuting, running. Everything. The headphone sound quality isn't the greatest. However, I just took the covers off of these and put them on Apple Earbuds.

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.

They are symmetric. These are the best ear-bud headphones I ever used (Made by Sony) - with the manual volume controller: Sony EX Series MDREX58V/BLU Earbud

The square speaker cups fit fine. I wasn't too sure about them when I got it but they stand out from all the other headphones. Connection is very reliable. A little static when u touch the metal parts of the phones but otherwise great sound
