    • These are not as great as the more expensive Audio - Technica headphones I've owned but for the price, I seriously doubt you will find a better pair
    • The cord terminates in a reinforced 3.5 jack (with a pretty matching adapter included).I have listened to the big brother M50s, and they are indeed a nice pair of phones, but these are the bargain of the century.

    • I must admit though, if you are not a professional musician and want just an excellent pair of basic headphones, the Sony MDR-V150s have great overall sound clarity and power and the more expensive MDR-V6 is only a bit better, despite costing more than twice the price.

    • I doubt there is a better pair of headphones available under $100
    • At the same time, while a $300 pair of jeans will be better than a $70 pair, I don't find the difference nearly as profound as the difference between the $20 and $70 pair, and definitely not worth the extra $230

    • As it turns out, the approx 50% reduction in noise was sufficient and I am content with these as a cheap pair of airplane head phones.

    • I lasted more than 3 years now & its still as good as
    • Compared to my "bass enhancing headphones," this headphones sometimes start clipping when I play my bassThe leather or vinyl material that goes around your ears is the classic material that starts to wear out and break as you sweat it or if you leave it in any warm placeOther than these 2 comments, for the price, and if you are looking to hear your mix as real as possible, this is a good choice.
    • and they are just as great as when I first got them (
    • They would fit over my ears but still cause discomfort after a few minutes, as well as get pretty warm
    • I was convinced by a friend to pick up Skullcandy ones as a replacement, and nice as those are
    • The headset sounds good, but does not isolate noise quite as much as I would like.
