Flat

The price is right and the fit is pretty good considering I have a mondo-large head. However, the sound quality is not so great. I get better sound out of the cheap headphones that hang off my ears. This set is very flat and hollow, not very warm. ...

Good for the price...

Besides echoing many other comments regarding frequency response (somewhat harsh treble, muddy bass), they do the job as a recording monitor for instruments in the mid-range pretty well. And for the price, I really can't complain... the phones...

Decent for the price...

At first I thought the purchase of these headphones was a complete mistake since the sound for music was so poor. HOWEVER, by using the Equalizer function in iTunes and Windows Media Player, these headphones are actually decent - for the price. If...

Where's the bass?

JVC emphazises the "thumping bass!" on this model. Don't fall for it. You can barely tell it's there. I will never get this pair again,even if they were free! JVC should be ashamed for false advertising. Never again!

Comfortable, Lightweight, Rich Sound

Flimsy Construction, Poor Sound

They are ok but not great

Wow, These Sound Terrible!

Pros: * Reasonably comfortable. Not nearly as comfortable as my old AKGs, but there are much less comfortable head phones out there. * Looks okay. I mean, not great, but they look like an okay pair of headphones in a chunky plasticky way. *...

A Bargain

It might look ridiculously big but it block outside noise and very comfortable to wear when watching TV or listening to tunes and for the price you can not be wrong.

Good for the price i payed

I spent less than 5 bucks on this (including shipping and tax and all), and its well worth what i payed for. The only problem i face is that i cant have it on for a long time as my ear lobes start to get very hot and uncomfortable. The sound quality...
