Monster Diamond Tears Edge On-Ear Headphones review

They're pricey and some people, particularly those with larger ears, may find them uncomfortable to wear over long listening sessions.

The Monster Diamond Tears Edge On-Ear Headphones may not be a gem of a pair for the price, but for a fashion statement they actually sound good.

"Pretty Powerful Headphones"

Using these beautiful headphones, I can hear a difference in the quality of my music. The sounds are richer, the background noises more pronounced; I heard things I had never heard in my music before. Josh Groban just became more awesome in these...

Sound quality is excellent, very powerful as well, look is quite nice as well, they conform to your ear.

Bit high price.
