They were the right ones, so I had chosen a better pair than I thought.thanks,Thomas F. Lawton

Heck, for 13 Bucks buy 2 pair and get em shipped free for petesake

and I was looking for another affordable pair to replace them

-SOME noise blockage-Decent bass enhancement (if that's what you're looking for)-Literally UNBEATABLE price for the qualityCONS:-Foam padding is a bit stiff, so it doesn't contour to your head as well as some pricier sets-Sound quality still inferior to more expensive sets-Frame entirely built out of light plastic, so probably not as durable as Bose for example, which has metal slidesSo if, like me, you are looking for a pair of over ear headphones for casual use (i.e. studying, relaxing) these are for you!After hours of extensive research to find the ideal pair of headphones for my purpose, I decided to go for these.

I recently "lost" a pair of JVC phones which to me were great

I didn't want to get another cheap pair of the lightweight headphones as I've not found a pair of those that can deliver decent sound

Admittedly, they were only $13, but they had many of the same specs as the X500's, i.e., 40mm drivers, etc, but the sound on the X500'S is literally five times better, and this saying a lot, because I was mildly satisfied with the cheaper pair (which got four stars overall on Amazon).

My last set was some damn nice Audio Technicas' and a pair of Koss

If you are on a tight budget of less than $25 these are the most fantastic pair of headphones that go OVER your ear that you can buy

Nevertheless, if you're looking for a good pair of headphones at a decent price, I recommend the JVC HARX500 Over-the-Ear Headphones.

Granted, this is a cheap pair of headphones, so I shouldn't have been expecting high quality, but I was very disappointed by this headphone

I wasn't totally pleased when I bought them, but I didn't have the money to buy an great pair of headphones

Like the other pair of JVC headphones I bought from

I have a good pair of noise canceling ear buds, but while I'm at home on the computer, I don't really like to wear them

These are the best headphones I've ever had, and for good reason, since I'd never really used a good pair of headphones before.

And as an update this pair also broke in the same area a couple months ago

and it's essential for me to have a good pair of headphones.

If you are looking for a inexpensive set of headphones and are primarily focused on sound quality then these are certainly a good pair to consider.

For the average music listener this is a perfect cheap pair of headphones

A solid pair of headphones.

I had a pair of Koss headphones for 6+ years and really liked them,but when they broke I could not find a new pair that were in my price range

But above all, I can wear them for 8 hours a day and not notice them at all (minus my ears getting warm, but that's to be expected).The best choice for over the ear headphones if you don't don't want to spend a lot, or want to see if you could wear them regularly before investing in a better pair.

The money is definitely worth it to buy a nicer pair.

But all in all a Awesome pair of headphones

they sound 9 db quieter then my cheap radio shack pair

Got my first pair of these after years of constantly replacing cheap pairs of headphones that would quit working after only a couple of months

whteveri wil def recommend to anyone who's looking for a good pair of headphones at a reasonable price

Bought these for my daughter after she broke and lost countless pairs of ear buds and they are great

If you want an inexpensive pair of headphones for just listening to your music, get these, lots of comfort features, swell sound quality, and stylish design.

Bought these because these seemed to be a good cheap pair that I can use while I'm on my laptop and other people are roaming around me

If you are looking for a good pair of cheap headphones get these, but make sure you buy them from Amazon not other vendors, i read lots of problems about these headphones from other vendors.

I wanted a cheap pair of headphones to watch/listen to movies on my laptop.

Goes great on better pair of headphones.

Decent pair of headphones for the $16 I paid for 'em

One complaint I have with these headphones, as well as every pair like these is the insistence of a straight plug instead of the one's with an L shaped plug, this causes the headphones to be under a lot more stress and are more prone to dying on you over time, especially if you run with these,which thankfully these type of headphones are not made for.

The latter 3 are all ~$20 headphones and sit in the same category as the JVC HA-RX500.Of course, as we all know, whether you like a particular pair of

I own a pair, not bad for the price and the bass is fair when I play my drums.

What I got was the best pair of headphones I've ever owned

I probably did that because the price just didn't seem high enough for a great pair of headphones.

When they arrived, I had to look online to see if you had sent me a more expensive pair

I cheap pair of headphones with a long cord that actually sounds pretty darn good

Overall, I have to say that this is an excellent pair of headphones at this price point

This is actually my 2nd pair, i dropped the 1st pair about 30 times over a 2 year period and they finally broke, completely my fault

and you just need a cheap pair of headphones, this probably isn't the worst

Bought these because these seemed to be a good cheap pair that I can use while I'm on my laptop and other people are roaming around me

I wanted a pair that went over my ears instead of in, since earbuds hurt my ears

Spend an extra 10 or 15 dollars and you can have a much better pair of headphones.

All that being said if you have a computer with HD audio options or some sort of equalizer to plug it up to they are nearly as good sounding as a pair of Sony MDR-XB300's ($80)The main thing though is the comfort

Good Pair for the price

For the average music listener this is a perfect cheap pair of headphones

Its a great pair for the price.

I've bought these headphones twice because their so good for the price, but you definitely get what you pay for with them because my first pair just randomly stopped working.

these headphones are well made and have a great sound, had another pair earlier that i damaged by over stressing the plug so be careful not to pull on the wires too much.

This is a good pair of headphones

I have a good pair of noise canceling ear buds, but while I'm at home on the computer, I don't really like to wear them

I decided to go with a cheaper pair of full size headphones.

But what I did get was a good quality pair of headphones that sit comfortably on my head and have good sound

These may not be an expensive pair of headphones, but they are great none-the-less.

I just couldn't ask for a better pair of headphones for what I was looking for.

But I had the first pair for a long time without any issues their pretty damn good.

With all of that in mind, all I can tell you is that if you want a great pair of headphones with a great price, then you have found the pair you're looking for.

I don't know if I got a bad pair or what

I am an amateur musician and I have a nice pair of Sony headphones I have been switching between my pedal board when practicing guitar and my electronic drum kit when practicing drums.

that are better, but for the money that I spent on these, I couldn't have asked for a better pair of headphones

Needed a new pair, cheap yet pleasant

The price was right as I just need a decent pair of headphones to listen to music, nothing expensive as I'm not a DJ

Definitely a super cheap pair of headphones

This might be a decent pair of headphones for gaming or something, but I wanted the best sound for music and movies, and this product just hasn't delivered

Spend another $10 -20 and get a better pair.

but I think next time I will invest more into my purchase to have a good, durable pair that I will use often

A cheap pair of headphones.

I'm using mine as a temporary pair until I can afford to buy a more expensive pair that produces more adequate and higher quality sound.

this are great pair of headphones

That first pair of crappy headphones actually sounded just as good as these, if you can believe it

The sound quality is pretty good for a very cheap pair of headphones

Product came in great condition and the headphones work as well as the over 200 dollar pair that I bought as a present for someone else.

This pair of headphones has suffered, but so far have persevered admirably

I personally don't like earbuds, so I have been looking for a nice pair of over the ear headphones

These headphones are just as good as $75 pair you will get at Walmart or Target.

For the money, this is a decent pair of headphones

I'll be returning these and trying for an upgrade with the slightly more expensive Sony pair

they were pretty good, and i may have just gotten the unlucky pair that every company has occasionally...

Worth a buy if you're just looking for a cheap pair of headphones, but I would not recommend it for someone looking for high quality.

Big disappointment, ordered 4 pair and only 2 worked

I have grown tired of earbuds and appreciate the sound quality and comfort of a good pair of over-the-ear headphones.

Otherwise a solid pair of headphones.

My first pair worked for a couple years until the left ear stopped working

I had high hopes for this product however the headband is a rigid plastic and becomes painful over time, I noticed no quality improvements over say my pair of Apple earbuds and the cushioning around the earpieces is rather rigid and hurts the ears

They are a major upgrade from the free pair offered on planes but not too expensive where you'd mourn a loss if they are accidentally left on the flight.

I actually had a pair of these headphones before but accidentally severed the cord

i bought these for like 10 bucks thinking "you get what you pay for" rite?wrong, these are hands down the best pair of

This pair of headphones has suffered, but so far have persevered admirably

I bought another pair exactly like them!

It's hard to compare a much cheaper pair of headphones to audiophile-grade headphones, but they actually compare nicely

And make no mistake, these are a really good pair of headphones at a really cheap price

Very comfortable pair of headphones, and the long cord is a help.

These headphones are lightweight, comfortable and replaced a very expensive pair that I had for years.

Some years ago I bought a $30 CND pair of JVC headphones and loved them

I'm using mine as a temporary pair until I can afford to buy a more expensive pair that produces more adequate and higher quality sound.

and I wanted a good pair of headphones to do this.

But if you don't listen to music loud and your looking for a nice low cost pair of headphones, these might be for you.

This is a great pair of headphones and I loved that they were under 14 bucks

He is very happy with them, his first pair.

I would highly recommend this for anybody looking for a decent pair of headphones without paying an arm and a leg for it

It is fairly light for its size but the build quality is not vey stout, but for the price of cheap earbuds, I really can't complain as it held up well under daily use over a year

For $13 though I am not going to complain too much as again, the sound is awesome.

A pretty good headphone,normally, I use my westone 3 for listening to music, I wanna a headphone because it's also works as a

The sound is okay but the noise leaks out of the headphones A

I recommend it for gamers as well as for listening to music

But after these arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the nice range of sounds I was getting from my little MP3 player, as well as from my PC.With regard to price to quality ratio, I'd say this is a very good buy

They are ok not as loud as I like and the bass is not as loud as I like but these are good for everyday use.
