A sound capturing device for directionally capturing sound waves, comprising a shell for encompassing an ear of a wearer, the shell having a front portion and a back portion corresponding to the front and the back of the wearer, respectively. The shell includes at least one opening in the front portion of the shell, the opening sized and positioned to capture sound waves transmitted from a sound source substantially in a pre-selected direction, wherein the wearer perceives said sound source to be located within the shell proximate the ear of the wearer, with reduced interference from other sources of sound not located substantially in the pre-selected direction. Preferably, the device further comprises adjustment means attached to the shell for selectively adjusting the size of the opening to regulate the amount of sound waves entering the opening from the surrounding environment.
