Sat Nov 7 22:55:21 UTC 2020

OK thank you very much I will get those or have her hopefully get those for me for Christmas who knows :-) thank you again for that help I really don’t want to disrupt anybody in my family when they’re in the next room watching TV and I wanna practice my piano. This is going to be very fun! If there’s ever anything I can do for you let me know. Thank you very kindly
Sincerely,Chela

>>> Circumaural headphones (also called full size headphones) are headphones that completely surround the ears. Headphones which are circumaural (literally meaning "around the ears") allow for the user's ears to be fully enclosed and are designed to fully seal against the head, thus providing a great deal of isolation from the outside, which serves to attenuate unwanted external noise in the background.
>>> Given that the ones I recommended are the type that the ear cups complexly cover the ear, I think they meet that description. The think to be aware of is the K240  is semi open back which means they could leak some of what you  are listening to to the outside world. Closed back headphones on the other hand will not leak as much of what you are listening to to the outside world.

Thank you for any suggestions and where I could possibly get them from. Price would be great as well. Thank you so much look forward to hearing from you guys soon.
