Reasonably Priced for Decent Quality.
(4 out of 5) by K. Halliday on Jan 23, 2006 (Essex UK)I recently purchased these headphones to listen to Mp3's via my PC.
So far I have to say I'm impressed. I wanted a big pair as we have two PC's in the same room and I wanted to listen to my music rather than gameplay behind me. They are not too heavy and I sit here for hours at a time and can with these on quite comfortably. The sound quality is good however I do find the movie-audio switch a little redundant.
If you want to buy headphones to carry around with you you are barking up the wrong tree. Mp3players headphones they are not.
If you want crystal clear perfect sound, Then quite frankly, sorry you get what you pay for.
If you want a good set of comfortable sturdy headphones for your Hi-fi or PC that dont sound like they were made in 1989, not forgetting for a reasonable price by a brand leader, then buy these headphones.
As an afterthought too.. Nice long lead :)

A good home choice
(4 out of 5) by Mr. Andrew Tonta on Mar 3, 2009 (Middlesbrough, uk)Having had Earphones for over 20 years, I fancied a change for my PC (TV watching, music listening and game playing).
I can recommend these headphones as, for me, I really appreiciated the space of sound around my ears as opposed to those "In Ear Plugs".
I felt a true experience of loudness without distortion and a satisfiying Bass.
I think other reviewers who have rated this product lower must already have an established relationship with "Headphones". I for one recommend these if you have used Earphones for a while and are looking for a change.
On a negative note, they do look VERY big on my head. So theres no way I'm going in public with 'em on.

Excellent for mixing
(5 out of 5) by J. Mott on Feb 1, 2008 (London)I bought these yesterday in for almost twice the price in hmv, big mistake after looking at the price on here. so i tried using them with my ipod and to be honest they sounded quite tiny and i was quite disapointed. but then i plugged them into my mixer to b used with my turntable and they soun ded great, very warm with a good range. so i wouldnt recomend these with a cd player or ipod/mp3 but i strongly recomend using them with some kind of amp. great cans!

Comfortable and excellent value
(5 out of 5) by MIddlestitch on Apr 10, 2007 (London, UK)Bought a pair of these for £[...] - unbeatable value at the price. I found them extremely comfortable to wear and the sound quality (mainly DAB radio, classical CDs and talking books) was fine. Highly recommended.
