BEST headphones for under $100 category

I have recently become a bit of headphone junky. It is my short and simple conclusion that for under $100, these headphones are a HOME RUN. Please, don't overpay for the childish "b" emblem with muffled, over-exaggerated bass sound. These headphones...

Cool Headphones

Let me be honest and say I do not own many pairs of headphones. These were my first "big boy" headphones coming from a world of Apple's earbuds and other knockoffs. The thing that caught my attention about this product was the overall line of TDK's...

Great headphones

Awesome sound,great clean bass, mids and highs ; I listen through my Yamaha receiver and i love what comes out! i don't hear any distortion even on very high volume ; I used it for hours and they still feel comfortable,not heavy, not hot! Perfect

Well i don't like the In-line equalizer though it looks very cool! when its on i can't get clear sound i have tryed low volume also. i still hear a hisssss its the equalizer working

Awersome

i wasnt expecting what i heard, but it is definitely better than Beats by Dr.Dre Studios, for 1/4th the price, and 100% the style.

Good headphones, would be great without the inline EQ

These headphones are pretty decent. Balanced connections (although they seem to rub against my face a lot which is annoying), good sound quality, quality construction. They also look pretty good (basically a better/classier version of the monster...

TDK ST800 review

Usually you get what you pay for, but in this case, I wasn't impressed. BTW, these are not Noise Cancelling headphones. But since they go around your ears (cupping over them), and being closed back headphones, they would be considered Noise Isolating...

Good bass, fair clarity, expensive looking packaging, 4 foot extension cord, velvet-like bag for storage, 1/4" adapter, small microfiber cloth to clean, unique booster/equalizer box connected inline with the cable. Muffles outside noise. You can adjust...

These headphones are heavy! Initially they seemed fine when I put them on, but as you keep them on, you feel its weight. And your ears feel warm-hot after about 20-30 mins. To use the volume control, you have to turn on the signal booster/equalizer. I...

A very good pair of quality headphones

I bought two pairs of these headphones based on the reviews I read here. The fact that the store was clearing these out for 70 bucks was too good to pass up. I have one pair at home and one in the office where i use to block the chatter noise around me...

Great value for the price

TDK ST800 High Fidelity Headphones My headphone arrived in very nice packaging and perfect condition. I added the included batteries and was off and listening to music quickly. I haven't had a good set of "cans" in quite a while. These TDKs are up...

The devil is in the details, but I still like these headphones

I've never been able to find headphones that deliver the perfect storm of great sound, fit, looks and comfort - this set comes about as close as any that I've tried - but of course there were some niggling details. As soon as I opened Amazon's box and...
