Do these swivel to fit around the ears. Are they truly over the ear headphones or do they sit on top of the ear?

These are my son's, he says they surround his ear, not just sit on top. Hope that helps

They don't "swivel" they adjust up and down to fit your head. Yes the fit over the ears

Yes they do completely surround ears. They don't feel tight to me. Haven't tried non-compact version.

These are made for smaller children, so for the intended use yes they are over the ear. They are the most comfortable headphones I have purchased for my daughter--BY FAR! The light is not too bright and can be turned off. She uses them to watch Netflix or other movies and listen to music on her tablet. They are also the best sounding headphones for children I have come accross.

Not sure I understand the question...they're just like regular good stereo headphones only they have the noise cancelling feature... They do completely cover the ears if that helps.

Not sure...ear sized...these are on-the-ear rather than over-the-ear...pretty much perfect for a normal ear IMHO

Yes they do swivel. If you hold the cups together in the center and push upward, they fold into a compact style position. Check the Audio Technica ATHM50s' in Amazon, you'll see what I'm talking about.

Not quite all the way around the ear. They touch a little bit. They are great head phones.

Depends on your ear size and head shape. I would rate them around a 6 or 7. They fit and stay in place, but are a little heavier than some other over the ear headphones. Not bad at all though. Biggest issue with them is probably the thin cord.

They sit on top of the ear. I do virtual teaching, so I wear these for four hours at a time. They don't get uncomfortably warm and they are lightweight. I don't know if there is something better, but I am pleased with them in comparison to Koss or SkullCandy.

No. You have to adjust them just right so they can stay in the ears. They won't stay or be in place over the head. Only behind your head and how you adjust them behind your head will they stay in place.

I have medium sized ears compared to most of my friends and family and Yes, these do go over my ears. I found the cups feeling bigger than I first imagined they would. Though they might not look it, they are definitely over-the-ear headphones.

There are several variations. One fits in the ear canal with a plastic piece wrapping over and behind the ear. There is also a padded earpiece that sits on one ear being held by a band going either over the top or behind the head...like headset but only sitting over one ear. The one in the ear seems loose and not too secure. There is no attachment that cups over the ear like an audiophile headphone.

No, the earpieces do not swivel. The speaker cover/ear piece is covered with a faux-leather material. I really like them because they are fairly low profile and I find them pretty comfortable. My only complaint is that you can't use them while they are charging.

They fit all around the ear. I have such big ears that most headphones that are over-ear don't go over my ears, but these are marvelous. The HSR-1000's are some of the most comfortable headphones out there, and they sound relatively good for the price.

Contact BOSE directly - they will create a case for you and reply very quickly. I have fairly large ears ..and these go completely over the ears and barely touch my ears. So, they are designed to 'cup' over each ear and not sit on top as to crush or flatten the ear down like some will do;

Yes they fit over the ear but they are a bit heavy. They sound really good for the money I wouldnt buy the beats.
