Designed for durability in grades K-12, the Smart-Trek Deluxe Kids Wired Over-Ear USB Headphones from HamiltonBuhl feature a rugged, flexible, leatherette-padded headband and Dura-Cord braided nylon cable. The 5' PVC-jacketed cable is crafted to be chew, kink, and knot-resistant. When used in a public environment and around many children, these features help to keep the headphones lasting longer. The cable ends in a USB Type-A connector for use with computers and gaming systems. An inline control lets students adjust the volume to their liking and high-quality audio is played back in stereo via 40mm drivers.
Choose between open-back (spacious sound, leaks noise) and closed-back (isolating, punchy bass) designs based on your environment. For wireless headphones, prioritize comfort and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance. Available from $26.99.
Wired headphones have no ongoing costs besides occasional earpad replacements. Wireless headphones function as consumables, as their batteries will eventually degrade after a few years of daily use.
