    Rated 3.6 out of 5 by 21reviewers.
    Rated 4 out of 5 by Tony the Tiger thinks they're Grrrrreat! I like these phones cuz they're light weight, and don't fatigue my ears. I wear them when i get tired of by buds or my full size studio type phones. I find the sound adequate for casual listening. For the price, you're not going to get deep bass (shallow driver enclosure, non-rare earth type magnets being two reasons ). As for the cord being short, this is marketed as a sport head phone. Do you really want to have to manage a long cord when you're doing your cardio or weights? Get real. Just my 2 cents worth, your mileage my vary. 03/20/2012
    Rated 5 out of 5 by best headphones Sound quality is superb and crystal clear. 03/20/2012
    Rated 3 out of 5 by Only for the budget listeners For those that don't like to read long reviews, now is your time to keep moving. For the rest of us, prop your feet up and get a drink because we are about to get serious.My family recently got two pairs of this headphone and I am currently using them as I write this review. I notice that they are a bit tight on the ears when I'm listening to them. Also wearing glasses, this makes for an awkward situation at times. either relieve the pressure on my earlobes, or take off the glasses? It is something that I have to put up with every half hour or else I will not be able to even get them off without pain.If you don't wear glasses or if you have different ears, you may not have this problem. I've been using these now for about 2 weeks and it still has not let up.As far as the main reason for having headphones, to listen to music, I find them good for a user with a low budget. Coming from my previous pair of headphones (Koss PortaPro) there is no comparison, the PortaPros blow them out of the water, but at close to 3 times the price. For about $12 in some stores, I have these, and for their main mission of audio, they are just ok. I would give them about a 6/10 on sound quality. The high sensitivity lends itself to very crisp and bright highs and mids, but at a price. The lows are washed out, and as the volume rises, the lows come through louder, but only to a point. After that the mids and highs take over again and the headphones become harsh and raspy. When listening to my Sony Walkman WM-FX290W, I MUST use the mega bass function or else it sounds like I'm listening to a radio from an old Mazda pickup that has seen better days.When using my Sony Walkman NWZ-S545, I have found that I need to reduce the mids and highs to VERY low levels or else I get a headache. I have found that Acoustic and Jazz music do not give me the headaches, but still. The harshness is a bit off putting.I do however think that Sony has exaggerated on the frequency range of these. I have had headphones that reached as far down as 14 Hz and these do not sound anywhere near 16Hz as advertized. My guess would be they reach about 22 Hz before rolling off to a whisper at 16 Hz. I've also noticed that at higher listening volumes (about 65% to 80%) the instruments and vocals become ragged in the upper frequency range. Not the best, but for people usually using these for exercise, they might not notice this at all. For people who are on a budget and don't mind, they might not even care. I've had JVC, Koss, Sony, and Philips headphones in the past and these are on the lower end of the list. I used to have a pair of Sony ear buds before they came out with the Mega Bass series and these are better only in the highs. that is all.Would I recommend this product for other consumers? Only if they are not in the business of spending large sums of money on audio equipment. I am a man of spending money for quality though, so I would not recommend these, unless one does not mind the quality. 01/29/2012
    Rated 4 out of 5 by Good, not as bad as others make it seem I think that this headset is pretty cool, not like all the others are saying.I was at first afraid to buy this product because of all the negative comments, but I decided to take my chances. After I bought this product, it was working better than I had expected! It's really light and the sound it's not too bad!Although the sound does leak, and the design is a bit unusual, it's fast to get used to. And of course, it would get uncomfortable if it is used for a long period of time.Other than that, I think this is a good product. 12/28/2011
