Headphones with ear hooks

Behind the ear

— removable devices designed to additionally secure each earpiece to the ear. Note that you should not confuse such devices with behind-the-ear mounts. The main difference is that the arms are used exclusively in some models of in-ear headphones and earbuds as an additional option. In other words, you can wear such headphones without a bow, while the behind-the-ear mount is usually made non-removable and, in principle, you can’t do without it.
