I gave these 4 stars because the bass is just too overwhelming, the mids are weak, and they don't have much volume. My little $7 ear buds are louder than these headphones easily but these are nicely isolated and comfortable with higher quality sound than the ear buds. If you use an EQ you can get things to sound quite nice but straight out of the box I was not too impressed with the balance of the frequencies. They are very comfortable and feel very durable and also fold up nicely and fit easily in the pouch that comes with it. The cable/cord and 1/4" adapter seem to be nice quality although I have not used them very long to see how they will hold up. They did work quite well for playing live as in-ears won't stay in my ears and these Aviom systems have such a direct signal coming from each instrument that is plugged into them anyway I usually just get all mid-rangy to annoying high end frequencies. These headphones smoothed that right out and because the Avioms don't really put out any real quality bottom end (at least with the in-ears I have used) these headphones worked great and the bass was not overwhelming for that application . For the price the quality is great and for using on stage with Aviom systems or other monitoring devices I think they are perfect but for kicking back and listening to music I would not recommend them unless you don't mind having an equalizer preset specifically for these phones every time you use them. At least that's my experience

I use headphones for casual music and movies with my laptop. After one week of use, i find the sound to be ok with no real discomfort and provides nice clarity for a wide variety of music. However, the bass is not deep enough sometimes. There is however some bass and i cant say it is totally lacking. I read from other reviews that the real sound comes out after a burn-in period of 1 month approx. ..so will wait n see. I like the folding design but not the long cord.WRT comfort, it is firm and fits all sizes but gets really hot around the ear in abt 5 mins. none of the other reviewers pointed this out.Overall i feel it is a good buy for [$], and can live with the cons for now. no 5 stars for the heating issue.

• How I use this product:
I use this product to hook up to my Roland Electric Drum Set
• Quality of sound:
This headset isn't bad for the price. I think the sound is pretty decent
and it has decent depth. However, I would like to see an option for volume control on the ear piece itself. It's not quite loud enough with certain things. Overal, I would give the sound quality a 7 out of 10.
• Pros:
It's lightweight so you don't notice it weight down your head. The cord is plenty long enough. They fold up pretty nice for those of you who need compact travel. Decent bass output.
• Cons:
No volume control on ear piece. Ear piece is a little small and you may have trouble covering your ear. The price is pretty good for what you get. If you want to look like a modern robot DJ with laser beams coming out of your eyes, these aren't them... they're pretty plain looking, but that really doesn't bother me, I care more about the sound quality.
I would recommend these. Overall I give them an 8 - 10!

The reasons bought these headphones were:(1) Great sound for under $100 -- they consistently ranked among the best "budget" headphones. (I don't know whose budget we're talking about; I am a poor graduate student and [$] is nothing to sneeze at.)(2) Low enough impedance (an MP3 player isn't going to have enough power to drive these, but they sound fine with my computer).(3) Portability. These things are sturdy and come with a leather pouch for traveling. There are slightly better headphones, audio-quality-wise, in this price range, but they are not meant to be moved. (In particular, the Grado sr60i and sr80i.)(4) Comfort. They feel fine on my head. They're not that heavy. I can wear them and wear glasses at the same time.If you were looking to spend something more in the $20-$30 range, check out some of the lower end models from Sennheiser.

After looking at multiple headphones and reviews I decided on this pair and am completely satisfied with them. I will be using them a lot for listening to music and sometimes watching movies. For [$], they are definitely worth it :D

I purchased these headphones for use during road trips with my college baseball team. The ears are like wearing 2 pillows. The sound is amazing. Very important and the reason for my 4 stars is the cord length. It should have been no more than 6 feet or better yet, just have a jack and supply a cord that can easily be replaced with a longer/shorter cord. This would also aleviate any problem if the cord got caught and ripped out. My last comment and of little importance woule be a hard case instaed of a leatherette bag. Other than all that, I would recoment this set of phones.

Those things are comfortable and easy to adjust, sit on your head nicely, don't clamp onto it like some others. They don't get sweaty and they don't hurt your ears, I have glasses so that's kinda bothersome in extended use. They do just ok in blocking out the sound from outside, and they don't leak sound out, so pretty good for like library and whatnot.
The long cord is great for watching movies, you can coli it and tie it for just getting around, but that's a little bit of a bulk sometimes. The conector has a spring on it that prevents damage.
I expected those to last like 3 years of heavy use, but they are getting flimsy in the headband area, so I don't know, maybe it's just wearing in.

Great physical construction. The Headphone cord is thick but not stiff. Easy to fold. The sound is great. Probably the most accurate sound representation of any pair of headphones I've owned at this price range. I use them on video projects. The band is comfortable as are the ear cuffs. I only have one complaint. The cuffs do not have lots of depth. If your ears stick out from your head they might not be as comfortable. When I wear them for long editing sessions (10+ hours) my ears start to ache.

I Bought the Audio Tecnica M35s to replace a lesser set of headphones that went bad at the plug. The salesperson at B&H recommended the M35s as an economical but better made phones to use for recording purposes. For less than 20.00 more the M35s are a great buy and they sound like a pair of 100.00 phones. they fold away to a compact size and come with a vinyl carry pouch too. I'm sorry I didn't ask for their advice before. The subterranean audio engineer.

This headphone is adequate for what I intend to use it for but could use more bass & volume. Overall, it's a good buy for the money.
