Ok

 

I like them ok but a bit disappointed. The bass was not deep at all but the mids and highs were ok.

Sennheiser, Very light and crisp clear

 

These headphones are extremely light and great for outdoor use, if your honestly looking for thumping bas bass then these aren't for that. Bass is audible, clear, and crisp. Not boomy or even close to any beats heatphones. Sound: Mids and High, are...

Ugly, plastic looking but functional

 

It took me a while to get to review these headphones. I have to say the color and construction did not feel very engaging. However, once this is set on your head, it feels quite nice and light. The sound is pleasant too and at the expected level of...

Sennheiser headphones

 

Love the headphones! They sound great on the computer, for the Ipod, and just took a trip and they worked great on the plane. Look amazing too. Very comfortable fit on the ears, can wear them for hours with no problem. Enjoy!

Decent Sound and Very Orange

 

The first thing I noticed when I got these headphones was they looked cheap and almost toy like (the bright orange and white color scheme did contribute to this). But when I put them on they did not feel cheap at all. There is a cushion on the to bar...
