Summary: Very Pleased
Review: Very pleased with these phones. ... so these were a very nice step up from what I had. I compared these to the Sennheiser HD500s and I liked these a lot better for a number of reasons. Comfort-wise these are fantastic! Sound wise these are nice, LOUD and great sound from lows to highs. ... these are high quality phones for the price.

Summary: Great phones
Review: Wow, what a difference. I couldn't stand the flimsy "standard issue" headsets that come with just about every portable audio device out there. Not only the constant adjusting, like glasses always slipping, the sound was thin at best distorted at worst. These new "cans" are sweeeeeeeeeeet, extremely comfortable and the sounds are absolutely sublime. I use these to listen to a variety of music styles all stored in iTunes in my Mac. I also plan on using them as monitors for recording purposes. Brand-new they seem solidly built are handsome to look at and with a replaceable chord I expect these will be with me for quite some time.

Review: yeah, i'd have to say these cans are pretty freakin' sweet. Sound is great, better than most sennheisers i've heard, especially at this price. The bass is mabye just a tad bassy, but barely. one of the most comfortable pair of headphones i've ever had the pleasure of putting on (around) my ears. They dont make your ears to warm like many high end phones, and the pads are uber soft. Sony may be a big faceless corporation, but they sure make some great audio equipment.
