I recieved these headphones as a gift back 3 years ago for my 18th birthday. They've lasted all this time and still sound great, they have superb quality when used with my dell dj, cd player, everything. One of the ear pieces comes loose but that is due to my rought treatment not defective merchandise. I highly recommend these as they are an exceptional piece of equipment for the price.

I have some JVC headphones that were about $20, which has excellent sound, but was curious if I could get a better sound from another equally priced headphones. I think that these produce sound as if they cost $50, and durable. The super long cord is somewhat perplexing, but I guess it has it's uses.

These headphones didn't blow me away, but they are great for the listed price of $20. Bass is minimal (forget 'em if you're into hip-hop). As an unemployed college student these were the best I was able to afford after my other set suddenly stopped working.
They look and feel pretty cheap e.g. the thin plastic headband, the length adjustments. The cord is way too long for the on-the-go listener,so keeping it tied up to the appropriate length is a must. Not much to look at, but for me that's a plus, as I didn't want a set that looked like princess leia's side-buns - i.e. they aren't bulky or any sort of fashion statement. The ear padding is pretty comfortable, but after extended listening ( 4+ hours) they may get a bit uncomfortable.
If you are looking for a new set of quality headphones at a decent price, then these are probably the set for you. Certainly a major upgrade from ipod ear buds or any other similar basic set. All in all, these headphones are good...Read more
