Poor choice

My school district bought these for the computer lab. The students complained about the headphones hurting their ears the first time we used them. I thought the headphones would loosen up by the end of the school year, but the students are still...

Great headphones for low price!

We purchased 4 sets of these for our training area. Employees were very impressed at how nice these headphones are - good sound, comfortable fit, etc... We're now ordering 8 more sets.

Junk

I work for a public library as the Head of IT, and the previous Head of IT had bought about 30-40 of these in bulk, probably on sale at one time. We have about 20 public computers, and I have been replacing about 1-3 pairs per month. We will be out...

Cheap, but there are cheaper out there that are higher quality

Fall apart easily. The part that holds the adjustable metal part in tends to split easily - they are held together by cheap glue. Once they split, they can be painful to wear to unusable ; Sound tends to cut out on them randomly. Sound quality (when...

Wear and tear very easy

I purchased these for my class room. I didnt have them for a month and they broke. The part that you plug into the computer got stuck in one of my computers. The headset just falls apart. This was made very poorly. If you are looking for inexpensive...

cheap plastic, not coiled cord

The sound is ok, the plastic holders for the earcups are broken after few uses, instead of the coiled cord (in the photo) they have a common straight cable. I suggest to see another option if you are looking for a long lasting headphone.

Cyber Acoustics ACM-500R Multi User Stereo Headphones

Made well, for the price. Very tight fitting at first. Took some flexing to loosen it up. I can use it alright but I wouldn't buy again.

Cheap and cheaply made

Like one other user has already written, the headphones are cheaply made. One of the headphones snapped away from the cheap plastic carrier - which broke after about six uses. It's not worth the cheap price - suggest not buying them.

.Good headphones

The sound quality was great. My only regret was the volume was not able to go to the level I desired. They did an effective job of keeping ambient sound out. Maybe I just have a FAT HEAD, but the headphones fit just a bit too tight and became...
