  • Beautiful Product, very good U curve, no muddy lows or tinny highs, definitely a better headset for fashionable audiophiles.
  • Last thing was, I finally had "David" as my customer support, asking me to take over the shipping cost from europe to USA!In CONCLUSION: I got guaranteed a durable, high quality product, which broke after not even 4 weeks

Reviews around experience (5.00 of 5)

  • Given the good experience I've had with those, I bought these with the intent of getting another good pair of V-MODAs for home.
  • I'm really interested to know what other great rated headphones would my music sound like now, but am thoroughly enjoying the experience of my V-Modas
  • However, after receiving my XL cups everyone is raging about, my experience with these headphones were so much better
  • Still a very enjoyable experience, however, as long as the chosen song isn't from Bach's symphony collection
  • The sound out of them is great, but I will echo the sentiment of many others here in saying that the XL Cushions are really necessary for a comfortable listening experience

Reviews around price (4.33 of 5)

  • At this price point replaceable ear pads are a must, and replaceable cable is highly desirable
  • Only worth the price if the customization and style are the most important parts for you.
  • I thought hey I paid a hefty price for
  • The mic is worth the price as well, however a mix of these ear cans and jacks is why these great phones lost a star for me
  • Purchased the M100's at a good price hoping they'd be more comfortable and have even better sound quality

Reviews around look (4.26 of 5)

  • I bought the white/silver and they are so sharp looking
  • And while it doesn’t help the music sound better, these are a darn good looking sexy pair of headphones and they come with an aggressive looking case that’s perfect to take anywhere with you
  • Great sounding and great looking, these V-MODA Crossfade M-100's are everything I hoped they would be
  • These were awesome looking and sounding, but didn't quite fit with my ears

Reviews around bass (4.12 of 5)

  • As other reviewers have mentioned, the sound is very warm and the bass is strong without being overpowering
  • These sound OK but the bass is loose and boomy and does color the mid frequencies
  • I highly recommend these to anyone with a similar taste in music sound, clear with a good punchy bass
  • The bass is overpowering, and muddies the other frequencies
  • In comparison the V-MODAs are more comfortable, cleaner sounding, more bass without losing mids, more convenient fold up design, better looking ; no stupid b on the side

Reviews around case (3.41 of 5)

  • The case is pointless, it is so small that you have to coil up the cable, disconnect it and then put it in the weird hold down just to store the headphones in the case.
  • Not too expensive, very durable, comes with a convenient hard case and additional headphone cable
  • And while it doesn’t help the music sound better, these are a darn good looking sexy pair of headphones and they come with an aggressive looking case that’s perfect to take anywhere with you
  • Solid as a tank and comes with a great case with very nice cords as well
  • These headphones add the right amount of tight, clear base that makes the music realistic and warm rather than flat and stark as in the Bose.

Reviews around pair (3.41 of 5)

  • Because of these issues, I would have to say these are the worst pair of headphones I've ever had.
  • And while it doesn’t help the music sound better, these are a darn good looking sexy pair of headphones and they come with an aggressive looking case that’s perfect to take anywhere with you
  • Over all they are a good pair of headphone with a very stylish look.
  • He wanted a comfortable pair of headphones that had a good seal, where durable enough to sleep in, won't fall of when he did manage to sleep, and blocked out the world with clear sound
  • This was my first real investment in an expensive pair of headphones, and they've completely ruined all of my cheap earbuds for me

Reviews around material (2.65 of 5)

  • These headphones add the right amount of tight, clear base that makes the music realistic and warm rather than flat and stark as in the Bose.
  • Buy the M-100, and ignore the LP.The M-100 gives you so much more clarity and presence that the LP sounds mushy in comparison.
  • Now the headphones still work as if they were brand new.
  • I could NOT be happier with the CrossFade M-100 by V-MODA
  • I would also recommend purchasing directly from m-voda as there are cheaper generic Chinese cushions that apparently fit these

Reviews around ear (2.54 of 5)

  • I never noticed my ears getting hot while wearing the LPs - with these and their seemingly nonexistent airflow I do.
  • They crush your ears if you don't replace the foam pads with their xl version of pads as well
  • It's not perfect - I do have to adjust, or pull up to let my warm ears breathe - but it makes a world of difference with comfort
  • My ears never started to hurt and I wear them from 2-6 hours at a time
  • and I loved all the features it just didn't have big enough ear cups

Reviews around time (1.54 of 5)

  • This time there was a minor issue that effected the headphones so I am sending them back
  • Buy the M-100, and ignore the LP.The M-100 gives you so much more clarity and presence that the LP sounds mushy in comparison.
  • But they have broken 3 times now, each time I have to send them in for repair
  • After wearing them about 5 hours straight, the top head pad starts to hurt my pointy head, but its far past time for a break at that point anyway
  • I could NOT be happier with the CrossFade M-100 by V-MODA
