Consumer review (newegg.com)

Cheap but fragile.

Cheap, comfortable, good sound reproduction

I bought 36 of these for my computer lab and within two months two of them have already stopped working. I expect more to fail before the school year is out

Coby CV-121 Deep Bass Stereo Headphone

They're pretty bassy--remarkably so for the price. Bass is not super-extended or super-articulate, sadly, but all in all, it's really not bad. Sure, I'd like more, but then I'm a bit of a basshead. The bass eats into the mids a bit, but the mids are...
