Great Price; Typically Mediocre but Acceptable Sound

 

First let me say that I have audio engineering and sound mixing experience for which I use professional Sony MDR-7506 monitor headphones as my sound standard. As you can imagine, NO small, lightweight, inexpensive headphone is going to compare to the...

music is great but flat does not really define the bulk of these headphones

 

Good sound but still too bulky for someone who sleeps with them on and doesn't want to be bothered by the depth. Not really flat.

Worth every penny

 

For less than $20, you can't go wrong. For most genres, you get as full a sound experience to satisfy the average ear. I wear these when commuting, running, cycling, and working at the computer and are sturdy enough to live in and out of my work and...

Great Set of Headphones

 

This is my second pair. The first pair lasted forever; hiking, working, at the gym, wherever. I listen to my iPod at least three hours each and every day, sometimes more than that. The last pair of these headphones would not break. Finally, I got a...

Perfect for the Gym

 

I'm on my third pair already! The first one because my husband snapped it (no fault of the product) by accidentally slamming the drawer on it; the second because my sister stole it because she liked it so much. We have tried much more expensive...
