The build quality is acceptable for this price and the sound quality is a noticeable improvement over 555's.

Now, I'm not a fan of Bose, I think Sennheiser sounds better and their price is better, but by contrast with Bose, I was able to buy replacement ear cushions for my 2008 Bose On-Ear headphones, 7 years later in 2015, even after the headphones were discontinued, meanwhile I can't even buy replacement ear pads from Sennheiser for models they still are selling, like the HD599

Your head small and want the Senheiser sound at affordable price

The sound quality is very good and at an amazing price.

Great sound and price.

I am sure there are much more expensive headphones that sound a fraction better, but if you appreciate awesome quality at a modest price, these are

They're a good price as well.

I missed the BF price on them last year and have since read mostly good reviews of them

I've thrown the gambit at these headphones and they've exceeded my expectations even without factoring the attractive pricing.

Well worth the price.

The next step up would probably be the Focal Elegia at 900$ which is a hefty price increase for a nominal improvement in sound when using reasonably priced audio sources streaming Spotify at highness quality

good price and good quality

Worth the price.

In the end I'm really happy with my decision and awesome black friday price

Also note that I am running these on a stock sound card or portable device with a low priced portable amp and no DAC, but running only FLAC files.)

Incredible sounding headphones for a great price.

They're fantastic sounds for a fantastic price

These r awesome !

This is a minor issue b/c the included 3.mm cable isn't too long to be tucked away and is thin and light to begin with.
