I thought that these full-coverage style headphones would do the trick, but everything I try is not nearly loud enough, except for the standard earbuds from my iPhone, which just doesn't do the trick for video editing

My daughter is autistic and these headphones are wonderful!!

love the headphones

If you're using these headphones to shh the outside world and are listening to treble, spoken words, scanners, metal detectors, I can see these being pretty decent headphones

If you need excellent headphones for audio books or other spoken word recordings, I cannot recommend this product more highly.

These headphones are comfortable, but heavy

These are my new favorite headphones for listening to music

I think these headphones are outstanding for the purposes they were developed for

In my case, when I'm gaming and someone is in the room, I tend to only have the right headphone over my ear, and place the left one behind my left ear (so I can hear when people talk to me)

BUT they are the absolute best noise blocking headphones I have ever used.

I love these headphones!!

These headphones are great for noise reduction

I've used headphones twice as expensive that worked just as well

Great headphones

I live in the city next to a bridge and wanted headphones to block out the noise of tractor trailers and trains crossing the bridge

These are great headphone

All together, I think I would have to spend at least two or three times as much to get better headphones for this purpose.

I was using a pair of RCA noise-canceling headphones before I got Koss QZ99.I got the RCA from a famous online shopping site for less than $20, you can't beat that!!And, the noise-canceling worked noticeably

Best headphones

These are ugly headphones

The worst headphones ever

Any other position is either uncomfortable or might hurt the headphones

I'm not saying KOSS isn't a great headphone maker, but if your looking for something soundproof avoid these headphones

Are these the best headphones you ever had

qualityAs other reviews have pointed out, the headphones are terrible.

The headphones are quite comfortable, but large and bulky so they do take some adjustment from the earbud

These are passive noise reduction headphones, so they are big and bulky.

So with all the jumbling around and crazy kids on the bus and a school that like to hit backpacks and/or steal your headphones while your listening to a good tune...well what I'm trying to say is, they don't really fit in a SAFE place in my

I use to make my own sound proof headphones by dismantling a pair of semi-inexpensive stereo headphones and inserting them into a pair of sound proof hearing protectors

At first, I was skeptical about how comfortable these big headphones would be.

These headphones are AWFUL

Great headphones at a very reasonable price.

I tried some active noise canceling headphones, but soon found that they're really best for blocking out droning noise like being on an airplane

I don't fault the headphones, though, and plan to get sports-type glasses with an elastic strap instead of arms to accomodate my needs

I've used headphones twice as expensive that worked just as well

My sister loves the headphones

Nice headphones.

These headphones are great for my metal detector and the price is right.

These headphones are really hard to wear for a long period of time

I spend the entire race crushing the headphones against my ears to block out sound.

They are Noise blockers first, headphones second

These work as both hearing protection from the tractor noise, as well as headphones.

These are by no means "audiophile" quality headphones - I've had inexpensive headphones from discount stores that could easily match - and, in some cases, exceed - the sound quality of the Koss QZ-99's

headphones are fine.

I bought these mainly for the warranty, as I've used many good headphones that would just quit shortly after the warrant period.

awesome headphones

Extremely well built and sound reproduction is that of much more expensive headphones

I was honestly surprised at how nice these headphones are: I mainly wanted the volume control, and that limits my options, but these are very nice

But then, all the headphones I've ever owned, have all been pretty loose fitting

Outstanding headphones.

I bought these headphones because I like to be isolated from the environment while I am studying

(For me this works much better that the Bose noise cancelling headphones).

The headphones are decently comfortable because they fit snugly around the ear, rather than sitting on top of the ear and squishing all of your ear parts

I really love these headphones, but before buying them you should know this

This means if anything damages that cord, you're going to have to perform surgery or dump the headphones

Overall I enjoy these headphones

My first venture was through BOSE's collection of noise-cancelling headphones, which easily ran over several hundred dollars

Coupled with the fine sound reproduction these headphones are excellent

These headphones are great

Certainly you should make every effort to protect your hearing with passive (non-speaker) headphones or earplugs when exposed to loud equipment - but you certainly don't need your attention distracted by music

These headphones are excellent

Can anyone tell me why I can't get these (and my other headphones) to be loud enough

I really like these headphones, and this pair is actually the second pair I've owned.

However, if you're shopping for some great noise-canceling headphones you'll love these

If you want to listen to something bass heavy like heavy metal then these aren't the best headphones, but if you're looking for something to use for Dubstep or techno then these are great

Excellent headphones for the races.

The headphones, which I've used only when traveling so only every few weeks or months over a year, were uncomfortable from the

As a caution to readers who do not know otherwise, the super expensive Bose type of noise cancelling headphones cannot cancel office conversations.

My old headphones were well
