These are the best headphones I have used. The sound is warm and clear. The headphones can go very loud and I have yet to reach the point where the sound distorts.
The design is comfortable, yet tight enough to allow you to walk or run without them falling off. They are also light in weight and aesthetically pleasing.
The wire is around 2.5-3 metres in length which means its long but not wholly unmanageable.
There is some sound leakage at higher volumes but only really enough for those within say 7ft or so to hear.
Rating: - Good Headphones
These headphones are brilliant, the sound quality is amazing and they are really comfy. The only problem I have with them is the length of the wire as its about 3 metres long, this really annoyed me but other than that they are great.
Rating: - Amazing headphones
These headphones come highly recommended, however as one person mentioned lower down I too had the same problem with these last time I bought them. Suddenly the sound stopped coming out of the right earphone, this will be my second pair....
Rating: - Great sound and well worth the price
These are an excellent set of headphones. I bought them for listening to my mp3 player in bed as the little ear pieces that you get with mp3 players get on my nerves (especially since I've lost the little pads that cover them). Great sound and well worth the price.
Rating: - Great headphones but not perfect.
I bought these about a year ago now, after my sister's rabbit bit right through my nice old Sony headphones! (I no longer live at home, thankfully!)
The quality of these headphones is great. I'm actually listening to them right now.
I take them everywhere, use them at school and work. The small size means you can easily pop them in your bag. As long as you're careful not to sit on your bag or something it's fine.
Like I said I've used them a lot, and the quality is still perfect. Not one dent or scratch either.
The only downsize (and this is just personal preference) is that because of the small size, they are actually too small for my ears. I don't have big ears, but the shape of them means that they don't cover my ears, they just sort of press against them, which means after a few hours my ears start to hurt and I have to take them off for a while.
Also, the wire is way too long for me. I use them just for my iPod and when working on my 'puter, both of which I don't need more than half a meter. When out and about I have to tie the excess wire up and use an elastic band to keep it from falling around my feet and tripping on it. Again this is just a personal preference.
If you have small (tiny?) ears and don't mind the 3 meter wire, don't hesitate to grab these great headphones.
