I haven't found another pair that compares to these at this price and availability. These are lightweight, sturdy, and comfortable, with great sound quality, and a long cord. Everything I want and need in headphones.
I though they had gotten messed up cause i can only hear out of one side and now they both work so I'm happy about that overall good headphones and they are very inexpensive good deal. They are some very good headphones they have good sounds and they don't squeeze your head like some other ones do.
The overall sound is just more 'professional' sounding than anything cheaper. You must realize, mind you, that I am writing within the context of a pair of twenty dollar headphones.I considered giving them a four, just because they cannot POSSIBLY be the best sounding earphones, but I quickly opted for the five-star since they are the best twenty dollar earphones I have ever listened to. If you are already an audiophile, you might be less than impressed.I've NEVER had a pair of earphones better than these, yet, but hopefully, my upgrade to a 50$ pair will prove better than these. Everything else does fairly well, though. Here are the pros: 1. I remember when I first turned the music on, hoping for the best but, in some way, expecting the worst. If it's your first twenty-dollar pair of stereo headphones, you might be impressed with the sound. If you keep the equalizer undisturbed, then everything sounds good.
The bass can be 'felt,' and has a nice thump.3. I've owned two different pairs of these headphones, since twenty dollars is the most expensive thing I could afford.I wanted to try something a little more expensive, something that had more thumping bass. It really does push tight to your head and, for some reason, seems to pinch the ears. It feels as if your ear has been folded at the edge and squeezed against your head. The bass gets pretty muddy if you want it more prominent.
If you want some more bass or more treble, then you are probably just going to have to find something that can handle the power. (Such as a computer)That's the gist of it. (I'd hate to think that, excellency notwithstanding, these are as good as it gets) - Atari The cord is too long for listening while moving about with an Mp3 player, for example: if you're jogging; but it is not long enough to give you a lot of ambling room if you have it attached to a stationary apparatus. 4. Not good.3. When I pressed 'play' on my Mp3 player, a smile slowly grew on my face as the rich, quality sound pumped into my ears.
(Then again, the stronger the stereo system, the better these things sound) 2. Cranking up anything on the equalizer is a toss-up. Much better than stock earbuds that generally come prepackaged with an Mp3 player.2. Good price.The bad, however, exists, albeit fewer: 1.
I would not buy a similar item from Sony. It seems to have a less than quality look about it. I was not impressed with this item. The ear cups were too small and felt to tight on my ears.
The tension on the arm is a bit too much - my ears feel squashed after a prolonged use, if I can feel them at all :-) I wish I could take away half a star for that. I'm very pleased with the quality of the sound. I use these headphones for listening to music, etc. at work.
