Seals out external sounds very well. Sound clarity is, again, OK.

No crisp highs at all, mute button is a momentary button. I was expecting an ON-OFF button, but that's ok, I will probably never use it anyway. Cord is quite thin, and could use maybe another 2 feet in length. Squeeze the head a little, but this helps the cups block out all external sound.

Bought these headphones as a TEMPORARY replacement for my $70 JVC's which I loved till they blew out. Tested these and they are, well, OK. That's about it..... OK.

They are very comfortable. They reduce outside noise and events very well. They're not 100% accurate, but they are not accurate because they were made to sound desirable to average listeners. Upper midrange frequencies and lower treble frequencies are damped/muffled to provide a non-tiring listening experience. The handful of bass tracks from bass CDs that I've tried on them so far do not seem to phase them at all. They'll harm your hearing/be uncomfortably loud before you'll make them distort.

They're not 100% accurate.

I upgraded from a pair of Koss earphones to these. These earphones are a major improvement and will hold me off for a little while before I invest the $200-$300 budget into earphones that I've set for myself. They're great sounding for someone on a budget.
