Hello everyone!
To keep my post succinct, for those who listen to audio while doing a session, what kind of headphones do you wear?
For me I use the sleep headband with Bluetooth speakers inside it, but it's kind of gotten used too much and the speakers seldom sit over both ears. I tend to lay on my side during sessions and I absolutely love having audio.
Looking for any tips/recommendations. thanks:)
I use earbuds, don't know what this style is called but you put them in and twist 90 degrees and they lock in the ear canal. I like them as they tend to stay in place better than other styles. They don't really work in side positions (hurt a little and my ears are sensitive) but otherwise they're great.
Hmm I see. So what you are saying is I should train on the back position ahaha. I was wondering why I prefer the side, I think it's because I used to watch porn during the sessions and that's the only way I could see my laptop. Lately I have been doing the mindgasm training and it's helped a lot, sometimes I turn the vocal instructions off and just enjoy the ambient music. Just curious - do you change positions much or is there one dominant one you use?
Woah not so fast, I'm not saying anything! Hehe just joking, I started with Erotic Hypnosis almost 20 years ago and it shaped the way I do things, most of the times I'm wearing earbuds or watching videos for at least part of the session, so I'm used to being on my back or sitting and that's where I get my best results. Which doesn't mean that those are superior positions. There's one position I use that is just ridiculous and probably not good for my back where I'm half sitting, half reclining in a chair in a way that the Aneros won't hit the chair... I've had orgasms in most positions I can think off, but the very best for me is on my back on a firm surface, that's really the dominant, reliable one. Nipple play is vital for me so this is also about having the best access, and there's also my ball-bearing trick that won't work otherwise. But it's all about personal preferences, and surely there's a way to make headphones work in a side position. I've seen pillows with speakers inside, don't know if they're any good sound-wise...
For years I used wired earbuds (hard inserts). The wire just got a bit annoying. I tried switching to cheap wireless earbuds but they kept popping out. I ended up getting a wireless pair of JLAS about two years ago. Not the best quality, and the bulkiness of a normal headphone isn't ideal, but it usually doesn't bother me much since I'm always doing sessions on my back.
@zentai ummm... ball-bearing trick? You can’t just leave that clever sexual neologism go undefined...
Haha love it! Thanks Zentai and everyone for the tips and comments. Tonight my gf is out and I plan to have a nice relaxing session on my back, i'm starting to track my aneros sessions (just what I do) not to "optimize them" or label sessions, but more to just test things out and see what I don't enjoy as much.
@divine_o Its not so clever, I wish there was a pun involved or something... it's just putting a steel ball bearing in my navel as a kind of passive stimulation, and then there's visualization where my prostate is being squeezed between the Aneros and the ball, I think it's a swell little trick.
I typically ride on my back or in doggy style so I use my wireless headphones. I have a pair of Steelseries Arctis 7 which I use all day pretty much...once you go wireless headset its hard to go back to wires lol
This may be what you already have but Bluetooth SleepPhones are great. You can reposition the flat little speakers within the headband so they'll always be in the right place. Audio quality isn't great, but then I find both earbuds and traditional headphones uncomfortable after a while. Sacrifice worth making.
