The package claims "Soft earpads cushion your head for hours of wearing comfort" but that's simply not true. Hard plastic speaker casing sits right up against your hear with only a thin bit of foam protecting you, no real protection at all. Then a foam donut surrounds the speaker casing and gives the appearance of a lot of cushy foam to protect your ears. If you wear them just right it's not too bad, but if you have it so that the hard plastic rests on your ears, it can become very irritating. The sound quality is pretty good.

I got these to wear at night so I could watch TV and not wake up my girlfriend, I can't wear these more than 30 minutes before my ears start hurting, try watching a whole movie and you will be rubbing your ears for at least an hour afterwards trying to recover. The product besides comfort is just fine, sound quality, range, everything else works just fine (not great), but the comfort level of these headphones is by far the worst I have ever seen. |
