earpieces

Sound delivery devices

Earpieces are the parts of a device that fit in or over the ears.

On eyeglasses, the earpieces are the arms extending from the frame to hook behind the ears.

On headphones or hearing aids, earpieces are the components that deliver sound.

A single earpiece often refers to a small speaker worn in one ear for private communication: The Secret Service agent adjusted his earpiece.
