   I wasnt expecting much. Just needed some headphones to save my Sony headphones from breaking so much. I wanted something to use at home while I let the Sony club phones rest. I knew for 18 bucks they would suck…but I have headphone for my MP3 player better than these things….

   I bought these as a replacement for my broken altec-lansing headphones(AHS322). The sound seems okay. Using them for more than 15-20 minutes makes the ears feel uncomfortable and sometimes causes a little pain(On-ear not over the ear). The good things are that it has a long cord, it is quite adjustable and decently durable. Would be good for the occasional user.

   I picked up a pair of these at Circuit City because I had just got my new MacBook and I wanted a substitute for the laptop speakers (and the accursed stock iPod earbuds). These are cheap headphones, but the depth of sound is tolerable if you’re not obsessive about it. The cord length is a bit excessive for the casual listener.

   Basically, they’re a great pair of stand-in headphones if your primary pair is broken or non-existant. Once I’ve got some more money, I’ll probably invest in a pair of Bose QC2 or QC3s, as living in a college dorm tends to demand the graces of noise-canceling technology.

   I wasn’t expecting much, but am glad someone else paid for them. They are very flat sounding and uncomfortable for an extended period of time. Using iTunes to make a pretty sharp V pattern in the equalizer makes these very usable and helps alleviate the tin can sound. If I where spending $20 on headphones I would buy an entry pair of Sennheiser’s .

   Honestly, I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting into when I bought these headphones at a local music store on the cheap, but I wasn’t prepared fot the poor qulity of this product. The ear cups are designed to sit on top of the ear, instead of cupping it, and this leads to discomfort and sound leakage. The folding setup is too free-shifting and will constantly fold up as you try to put these on. The Cables leading to the earpieces are a bit on the fragile side, and the 6′ cable is both a blessing and a curse. The sound comes through at a nice volume, but the treble is weak, and the bass is rather flat

   All in all, i’d recommend further research before deciding to purchase these.
