Not worth the money.

If intense bass, aching ears after 30 minutes, and decent quality headphones for an expensive price is what you want, here they are. Invest into some BOSE, they won't disappoint you for the price.

Sound quality is great to say the least

Bass is way to high in these for a normal level, was even doing a blind test on them and one of my friends even said "Wow, my ears hurt from those, how can you stand that bass ; Comfortable? Lol.. no leave these things on your ears for more than 20...

Good bang for the buck

These headphones do not keep noise out and I was aware of that when I bought these headphones. I bought these headphones instead of noise isolating headphones for safety reasons. If there is a loud sound like a smoke detector or the the water kettle...

Great sound ; The cable is actually detachable from the headphones

Break in time is fairly significant, about a month or so. The whole thing used to vibrate abnormally for a particular low frequency tone, but now it performs brilliantly

Good headphones

NewEgg has these headphones at an INCREDIBLE value, if you buy them anywhere else, you'll regret it (I'm dumb...) If you like hard driving bass from rap/hip-hop/hardcore techno/rock, these are your cans! Go to the headphone dot com site for reviews,...

INTENSE bass. Just...wow. These fellas rumble. Their low impedance and bass boost are intended to be used straight out of a low powered source such as an iPod or laptop. It gets the job done, and I love the open design. Very comfortable, I've owned...

Ever so slightly distorted mids because of the intense bass boost, but it's barely noticeable. These things have too much bass at times. At 20hz, they have almost maximum response. That's just not natural (20hz is so low it's barely audible at all)....

They are SUPPOSED to leak

The above review clearly doesn't know the difference between open and closed headphone design - simply put these are open, they are designed to let sound in (and so out), so that you can hear the outside world while using them.
