A system for positioning an earbud relative to the ear of a person includes an ear frame that extends between a first end and a second end. The ear frame extends in an ear frame plane defined by the first end, the second end, and a top portion. The system further includes an earbud receiver configured to receive a stem of an earbud. The earbud receiver is connected to the ear frame. The earbud receiver defines a bore extending along an earbud receiver axis between a first opening at a first end of the earbud receiver and a second opening at a second end of the receiver. The earbud receiver axis intersects the ear frame plane an angle theta selected to retain the position the earbud relative to the ear of the person. In some embodiments, theta is selected between 5 degrees and 30 degrees.
