This durable, beige-colored headset is the educator’s standard for use with Card Readers. Noise-reducing earcups allow students to focus on the lesson, making it ideal for speech therapies, ELL, ELD and other language learning applications.
Two ¼'' plugs
ABS plastic ear cups with adjustable comfort-fit headband
Around-ear ambient noise-reducing earcups deliver maximum protection against exterior sounds (without added electronic circuitry and expense). This reduces the need to increase the volume (protecting the ears) and helps keep students on task.
