I got these headphones on sale at Marshalls, but before I bought them I looked online to see what people thought of them. A lot of people said that they were really quiet, but with exceptional sound. I bought them hesitantly, afraid they'd be too quiet, and it doesn't seem too quiet at all to me. Then again, I also have the iPod which can crank up really loud. On my laptop, it sounds plenty loud too. I bet I'd probably feel it if I was still using my PSP for an Mp3 player.
First, I'd like to say that I absolutely love the sound quality. The design is brilliant, very fun. A lot of people say that they were expecting the outer metallic part to be metal, but I think I prefer plastic, as it makes the whole set a little lighter. The design fits right over my ears, and does a great job isolating the sound, and muffling outer sounds. The bass is great, and my ears don't hurt after wearing them for a long time.
They probably aren't the best headphones out there, but for...Read more

Well, I purchased these headphones after reading some good reviews but unfortunately either people did not have experience with other headphones or they just simply don't care/know the sound quality.
These are absolute garbage, the sound is horrible, muted and distorted. I bought them primarily for use with the PC for occasional radio stream or MP3 music but I hardly use them as I hate them for this poor sound quality. Playing with my sound's card equalizer does not help at all and the music still sounds as if it was coming through a foam or some sound deadening material.
My 13year old Philips SBC HP1000 were perfect I just wish they still worked as these iFrogz are garbage :(
They are not comfortable either. The ear covers hurt ears and are quite hard. The arch that goes over the head is covered in leather-like material but hurts my head after about 10minues of use.
I hate these. Please spend extra cash and buy some respectable product.

I fell in love with the design of these headphones. I really like the retro look, and I absolutely adore over the ear headphones! I am not a big fan of sticking ear buds into my ears. I thought the red part was going to be metal, but its actually plastic, but that is not a big deal. The mesh ear cups actually provide pretty decent noise isolation which means did not have to crank up the volume to drown out background noise! I use these on my computer and the sound is very clear and very nice. I listen to music on my computer, since I dont have an mp3 :( , and so the sound is pretty balanced, but I am no music expert, so thats my 2 cents worth about the sound. When I did plug these into an mp3 player, the sound was pretty quiet low. I was surprised. I had to crank up the volume to listen at a good listening volume! This is mostly surprising because I absolutely do not listen to music at a loud volume because my hearing is important to me! So I was pretty disappointed by that fact since...Read more
