Strength:
Very good headphones, will not distort music at high levels without bass boost.
Weakness:
Bad speaker cloth, it hurt my ears after five hours so i put on some other ear covers that were bigger. These are good headphones and are an extremely good value, i bought these freaking things for $10 bucks!!!!! They work great even at high volume but without a bass boost. I recomend replacing the ear cloth because they may bother your ears after a few hours, they make extremely good headphones to take along on a long car ride. Similar Products Used: tons of stuff |

Strength:
Very good volume and sound quality.
Weakness:
You listen and everybody in a radius of one mile listen with you. In three months or so, the pading comes out and wearing the set becomes really uncormfteable. At total, it's a good buy. |

Strength:
Strong sound, surprisingly good for blocking out minor sounds despite open air design, long cord.
Weakness:
Bad ear cloth/foam. Bought them because I was looking for a cheap pair of headphones for gaming on my computer and some music listening, and had a friend with them who loved them, suggested them to me. I couldn't find them at any store as I was looking for these in 2000, and if the guy who put the post above is right, they were 2 years old by then. So I found them online for about $8, with about $7 shipping and handling. They are great headphones, but I don't keep the cord wound up when I use them, so I keep stretching the cord when I'm on my computer and I shift positons in my chair, so I'm currently looking for online place to buy another pair. I'm not even going to bother with looking for a different pair, I love these too much. I would suggest them pretty much to anybody looking for open-air headphones, but then again people who need perfect sound will probably want some studio-class ones, cause I doubt they are that good (but good enough for Quake 3 and Offspring :) ) Similar Products Used: Nothing, cause as soon as I found them, I didn't bother with anything else. |
