I really like these phones and for the price they can’t be beat

but I can’t knock these phones.

I guess the position would help protect the ear phones

I bought these when the last of my sennheiser px-100's bit the dust, and I found that its successor (and, indeed, most modern phones) boosted the midbass so artificially as render most music practically unlistenable.

The phones are very comfortable, but I find them slightlyon the small side

I'd pass on these, the skullcandy phones at the same price are much better with regards to comfort and sound.

Anyhow, those phones developed a mechanical fault, and I went back to the Shures and you know what, they are really good.
