Difficult listening moments which are now no longer difficult

@Mary Beth I’m sure it’s quite interesting to watch too 😂 I’ve never touched the mic area either and I’ve never seen myself put it on so it’s hard to explain how I do it...😂

This is quite interesting.  I don’t have long hair.  I don’t touch the mic area at all when putting my Sonnets on.  I use one hand.  Rest the Sonnet on my ear and put the coil in place.

If there is a way for you to attach the coil after the Sonnet is on your ear @Emily C., it won’t matter if you had touched the mic area since you won’t hear it yet.  Is that possible to do?

Yes, that's what I meant by the 'other' way I tried putting it on!  Pull hair back, Sonnet in place first, nice and quiet, then make a fluid motion down to grasp the magnet and slide it up.  That's better for no fingers accidentally brushing against the top mic from trying to adjust/hold it.   Except quite a few times, go figure, my hair (when I was trying to adjust it from my face) or (even carefully) putting my glasses on would bump the darn thing off anyway.  😜 😜 😜    I just gotta get good at the gymnastics of it.

@Emily C.

I bet you will figure out a way that works comfortably (and quietly) for you.  My teen students with CIs and long hair position their processors on their ears first and then deal with their hair and the coil.  Some like to wear the coil under their hair.  Others prefer to wear the coil on top of their hair.  They each have their own method and tend to follow it every time.
