Due to such a constitution, the headphone set can be used in a more stable manner.
1. A headphone set comprising:
a speaker housing which incorporates a speaker unit capable of outputting a sound, and is brought into contact with a user;
a connecting portion connected to the speaker housing in a state where the speaker housing is movable approximately linearly in a forward and rearward direction of the user;
a headband which mounts the connecting portion on an end portion and is wearable on a head of the user in a direction toward a crown of the head of the user; and
an ear pad, wherein:
the ear pad has an approximately elliptical shape,
the speaker housing and the headband are connected to each other with a predetermined angle α formed between a direction of a center axis of the headband and a long axis direction of the ear pad in a state where the center axis of headband extends in a vertical direction, and
0<α<45°.
2. The headphone set according to claim 1 , wherein the ear pad in included in the speaker housing and substantially wraps an ear of the user.
