The slider includes a proximal end that is disposed within the cushion assembly and a distal end extending outward from the cushion assembly. A pivot mount is disposed within an opening at the distal end of the slider. A pivot is supported in the pivot mount. The headphones also include an earphone and a yoke that couples the earphone to the slider. The pivot mount is secured to the slider via a fastener, and wherein the yoke is pivotable to a position in which it covers the fastener when the headphones are in use.
