Stereo Isolation Headphones

(They’re the same thing. Go for the Vic Firth ones.)

Many closed back headphones, such as Vic Firth SIH3s. They were made for drummers.

**If your ears are hurting, you are doing IRREVERSIBLE damage to them.** Yikes! Stop, immediately. Get proper DRUMMING headphones that offer ISOLATION (not "noise cancellation"). Alternatively, proper drumming in-ear-monitors (IEM). Speaking as a firearms expert (also certified instructor)... Do NOT do even another single session without proper hearing protection. To be clear... so-called "noise cancellation" headphones are NOT appropriate for loud percussive noises like drums or firearms.

Definitely better. Even better:.. if the budget allows. These use actual shooting ear muffs modified with speakers. [https://www.gk-music.com/product/ultraphones/](https://www.gk-music.com/product/ultraphones/)

The downside to bluetooth is latency. If you're watching videos, the audio / video will often be noticeably unsynchronized. If you're just listening to audio, it's not a problem. If the headphones have a wired connection option, that will eliminate the latency issue.

The Vic Firth are right and great for isolation - not needed with an electric kit. The Sony model you picked are my favorite for e-drums. They just go a little lower than 4 or 5 similar priced models I've tried, without exaggerated bass. And on sale they are affordable.

This is insane....had a Pearl kit EXACTLY like that growing up. Ran Vic Firth wired headphones to a Bose entertainment system that held 6 cds. Only difference was I eventually put a double pedal on it and some extra cymbals
