So you can hear the phone ring or someone talking, etc. Also they lay flat when not in use. The only downside is some times they make your ears warm. Estonia L190 #7004 Casio CDP S350

They were about $15 bucks and sound pretty good to my ears. I use them with a PX-800. For seating, I use a dining room chair that is the right height to keep my arms in a fairly neutral position.
