I'm like hotelmode, in that I'm not a prima donna and get away A-ok with the DC "head clamps." In more than my fair share of 8+ hour days, I've never had a problem with them. I keep the individual ear volumes at their lowest setting and often find myself having to turn down the DAP volume from the previous guy's setting.
Put in a pair of earplugs, use the company-provided headset, and put that extra $700 into your retirement account.
