Summary: Fairly nice headphones, but not very comfortable.
Review: These headphones are a definate step up from most ... headphones. The sound is clearer. The appearance is good, a nice sharp silver. The headphone jack is gold plated for better conductivity. The main problem with these is the comfort, or lack thereof. The earpads are rather small, causing these to press against my ears in ways that grow painful over time. I recently bought a pair of ... Sennheisers, which are significantly better.

Summary: Great... But With Flaws
Review: These headphones are amazing, but they are not without flaws. After first purchasing them, it will take you about a week to get used to them. They are very uncomfortable at first, but after a while they are pretty good. The sound is these headphones is incredible! They are great for bass, and the guitar ad percussion are easily heard as well. There is only a couple of problems. The phones do not have a mono sound option with them. As I am deaf in one ear, this is extremely frustrating, because I find myself missing out on quite a bit of music when listening. These are more of a problem of some albums, like my favorite two albums by Jimi Hendrix. I will be missing out on a guitar riff or a song portion. To most people this isn't a big deal, but to people with one poor ear, it is a big letdown. The cord on the headphones is unnecessarily long. It gets tangled after three or four listens, and this is also fairly frustrating. There is one great use for these phones, and that is for use on the keyboard. I own an expensive KORG Triton keyboard and a Fender guitar, and these headphones are perfect for making music. They also block out more sound than most other headphones, but still quite a bit of noise leaks through. However, I don't use a subway system and I'm not on a plane more than once or twice a year, so this really doesn't bother me. For some people who travel a lot, or live in a place like New York City, these headphones may irritate you because the only block out some noise. Overall, these headphones have good sound and great quality. It has its problems, but it is a great buy, even for the shocking price tag.

Summary: These are nice
Review: These headphones are great - use them on my MP3 player in the lab where I work - muffle a lot of the surrounding noise and are nice with the bass (I tend to listen to the heavier side of music). The extra cord length is also a plus given my environment where I need some freedom of movement which a 3 foot cord just wont allow without pulling my mp3 player onto the floor. I do experience some ear fatigue but usually after a couple of hours - normally I cant still that long - mother nature will beckon - so is not an issue.

Summary: wonderful!
Review: These headphones are great for the price! It has a good punchy sound, with great bass! but unlike other reviews say, i think these headphone's base isn't overpowering, just strong. Also the screw on adapter for the plug-in is nice, but the ridges for the screw can get in the way of some uses. It's bothersome when it's used along with my slimx 550 cd/mp3 player.

Summary: Just what I was looking for
Review: These headphones are perfect if what you plan on doing is some heavy-duty listening. They're a HUGE improvement from my last head phones, (Koss something-or-other). When looking for pair to replace those, I was torn between these and the V150's. I decided to splurge on the better model, and I'm so glad I did. Even listening to a CD that I've owned for years sounds like I'm hearing it for the first time. You can hear each instrument clearly, which is especially helpful for learning to play/arrange a song.
I didn't think I would need the 1/4 inch plug, but it turns out my (rather old) stereo only takes 1/4 inch headphone plugs, so it worked out perfectly! The extra-long cord is great for walking around a room while still plugged in, but a bit annoying when trying to put the CD player in a small space (such as my backpack). All in all, I'd rather have it, because even normal length cords can be annoying at times.
In conclusion, I would DEFINITELY recommend this product.

Summary: Great Headphones
Review: These headphones are very high quality. The provide great sound! I use them with my Nomad MP3 Player and my portable CD Player. They are also very stylish.These headphones are definitely worth the extra cash.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Ouch, these are tight!
Review: They hurt my ears after about 15 minutes of wear. I expected a spiral cord for the price you pay (why aren't any pictures showing the cords these days?). I'd expect to pay about $15 for headphones like these. Inflation!

Summary: DMX's Real Review
Review: Yo this one is in case the other one didn't make it. These headphones are good because of the deep bass it produces. The sound is very good considering the price - you're gonna get a good deal for this product - BEST VALUE I would have to say. The colour is good because its metallic silver and no other one that I've seen has this color so that makes this product unique! AND ITS LIGHTWEIGHT YAE YAE! TRUST ME AND BUY IT!
