 Pretty good for what they are, which is average. November 25, 2008
To be honest, I have been listening to in-ear headphones for so long, it took a little while to get accustomed to over-the-ear headphones.
The sound quality is decent, a little heavy on the bass.
The head fit is tight, which is fine for me because I am petite, but I can see others being uncomfortable or claustrophobic after extended use.
The appearance is cheap - however, I have only had these for about a week, so time will tell how the materials hold up! Obviously, there can be a difference between appearance and performance.
My biggest complaint is that the foam of the headphones crackles if you move your head, so it can like listening to distorted or low quality music. The sound is exaggerated since it is in close proximity to your ears. This is probably due to a lower grade material - sorry that I can't shell out $500 for headphones, Sennheiser!
Good Cans, But May Not Be For Everyone.. November 15, 2008
I really like these phones. I had a set of Grado Labs 125's that I sold to get these. The Grado's are crisper and cleaner, but the Sennheiser's are richer and more powerful at the bottom end (which is my own personal preference). If you're not real big on bass and low end, you may want to look somewhere else becuase these probably won't be your cup of tea. If you are a hardcore demanding audiophile you might find these too strong on bass and not balanced enough at the higher frequencies. If however, you just want some cans that can kick out some nice fat bass, give these a try.
 Sounds O.K, but VERY uncomfortable October 31, 2008
It has been a couple of month since I have been using this. I have little complain about the sound quility; it produces crisp and clean sound, generally good for any type of music. My biggest compalint is the ear cups. I have smallish ears, however the cups are way too small for them. They are sqeezing my ears too hard; even after 10 minutes of use, my ears are hurting. I used to have very cheap AKG headset, and it was way more comfortable, with much bigger ear cups. I regret buyinng this one just because this one has many good reviews. I am going to buy another AKG as soon as this one breaks.
You won't regret getting these! October 31, 2008
Pros: They are comfortable- I was worried after reading reviews that they're too tight, not adjustable, etc. but they proved to be comfortable for my average sized head. Granted, I don't use them for more than an hour or two. Sound is amazing. Bass is not overwhelming as some have stated- they handle mid and highs quite nicely. I'm noticing sounds I didn't before in my songs.
Cons: Cheap plastic look.
 Simply Amazing October 18, 2008
I am the lover of Bass....I bought Audio Technica AT7 Noise Cancelling headphones...they are good..but not for the bass lovers..and big problem was sound leaks like hell. Then i found this, and ordered it. First of all they are amazingly light weight, and Bass is amazing. You can feel that woomb feeling...Only enhancement i feel is needed is if company can make it little portable then these are the best..
