Seriously disappointed with sound

 

I bought these for $60 in Australia to replace some worn out Philips headphones that had started to fall apart. The Philips headphones I had paid $20 for. These $60 headphones are nowhere near as good as the old $20 headphones. No bass, tinny sound,...

Pleased

 

I bought these for really cheap! only $20 and the sound that comes out of it is amazing. At first when i first plugged it in i was disappointed but after the drivers in the speaker starts to stretch a little the sound is amazing. Worth every penny! If...

I'm the one who decides the volume I want.

 

I'm completely disappointed. The volume is WAY to low and obviously intentionally limited. After less than and hour of wearing them, you might start feeling them uncomfortable in the top edge of your ear. I spend a week looking at reviews and for no...

Comfortable, and make quality sound

Disappointed

 

The sound from these headphones is very dull and muffled. I have cheaper headphones that have much better clarity and depth. I was expecting more from this brand name. Disappointed.

Sennheiser Headphones

 

My son and I went to the big box stores and compared several different manufacturers of headphones up to the $400 range. We both settled on these as being the best sounding for the money. We went online and found them on Amazon for less. They work...

Very Comfortable

 

While the sound is certainly not the best, the comfort of these alone is worth the $50. I am a college student who often listens to music to drown out other noises and is forced to wear headphones all day, so these were perfect. The sound quality is...
