findquasarDC One-X for sure. My head is small enough to where I can’t wear Bose. The DCs are great.
mild-blue-yonderMy oldest has a big head and the dc one x fit him fine from 18 months on. My youngest has a smaller head and I’m sure it’ll work with a towel on the headband, and probably without. He won’t wear anything on his head right now though so it’s hard to say.
Tiny, pin-head haver here. DC One-X is where it’s at. ANR is equal to or better than a20s. The only downside is that connecting to Bluetooth doesn’t happen automatically like with the Bose/Apple combo.
SEKS-AviatorIn on behalf of the DC One-X mafia. Recommend it.
Speech-AwkwardSecond this. Dont have a comically small head but definitely in the small-mid range and Ive been loving the DC One-X so far.
