Rating: Summary: They fell apart after a year of great sound Review: After about a year of owning these, they broke. The earphones fell off the headband, and were dangling there by a tiny cord. Originally I gave these a rating of a 5, but I feel that it is necessary to change that rating to a 3 now that they have broken. I have purchased a new pair of headphones from JVC which look sturdier, but don't have quite as strong of bass. Again, these have incredible sound, but you do have to be very careful with them. I didn't do anything really rough or unusual with them, they just fell apart.
Rating: Summary: Studio Quality Review: Don't let Panasonic fool you with the "Basic" misnomer. These headphones are definitely one of the best studio pairs you can find. I have only used them for two weeks now, so I can't give you a good idea of their durability. Let me break this product down for you...Sound- The most important aspect of a pair of headphones is sound. For the price range, the 710's probably deliver the best. The frequency response is advertised as 5hz-27khz, however the package said it was 8hz instead. But, that's not much to gripe about. The clarity at high frequencies is unbelievable. After using them for two weeks, the bass has increased in power. But, it will not thump the bass unless the bass is meant to be thumped. So, if you want all of your bass to be thumped, you'd have to get an amplifier. You can't just turn the volume up on these things cause the bass will blow your eardrums out. Believe me, I had a serious headache after listening to some hardcore at a little higher volume than usual. One more thing, you won't get any unwanted distortion with the 710's. Comfort- The second most important aspect is comfort; you can't enjoy the sound if your head is getting squeezed to death. I found them to be quite comfortable. They need some breaking in at first, but eventually you should be able to forget they are on your head. I use them while mixing on my PC for 3-4 hour periods and feel fine. Design- Ok, I guess I've got to say a few things about the design. These can be folded up somewhat. Not enough to get excited about. However, they are not the sturdiest things in the world, so I wouldn't be stuffing them into a bag or other luggage anyway. If you have to take them somewhere, make sure they are well protected. They have little plastic swivels just above the drivers that adjust to your head for added comfort. These look fairly fragile and I can't help asking, "Why in the world didn't they use metal?" A note to DJs, they can be positioned for single side monitoring. Looks- I don't care about looks as long as they get the job done. However, there are those of you who just have to look cool. If you are thinking about getting these things for portable use, forget it. They are way too big. If you are going to use them as a DJ or in the studio, you couldn't do much better. Efficiency- In this price range, they have to be the most efficient of all. Don't wait; buy 'em!
Rating: Summary: Best I've Had In A Long Line of Headphones I've Been Through Review: Excellent headphones. This is the 5th set of headphones I've gone through and I'll be sticking with these for awhile for a few reasons. First, they're durable and made to last. The headband is padded and strong and won't snap, warp, or bend. The cups are very secure. And, most importantly, the single wire config is well protected, especially at the point of connection on the cup. Second, the sound is excellent. Very clear and crisp. I mean VERY CLEAR and CRISP. The sound really surrounds the ear because of the 50mm cups which really adds to encompassing you in the music. I used to have a problem with the bass, but then I found out that it was the source of the music that made the bass shallow (my laptop). When I went to a different source (my walkman) I really knew what they meant by the Brainshaker Technology. These headphones are not very good at filtering out external noises, but I don't mind, in fact I prefer it that way. I like to know what's going on around me.

Rating: Summary: Awsome one of if not the BEST!!! Review: Great product. I ordered it on Febuary 6th and got it the 12th. But beyond from fast free shipping the actual product is amazing. I'm hearing things in my CD that I haven't heard before. The trebble is increadibly strong. But the base is great I have a CD that goes into a really deep base and usually my speakers start to break up, and Ive blown 3 speakers listening to it. But with this pair of headphones it never breaks up even with the base boost in my machine. absolutly increadible.
Rating: Summary: AMAZING! Review: I have had these for over a year and LOVE them! They have HUGE 50MM drivers, for superb bass. They excell with all forms of music. They are very inexpensive considering what you get. There is very little difference between thes and the Sony DJ700's. Except the Sony's are a bit more bassy, while these are more accurate. They are open-air design (very nice) so the have a more expansive sound, and aren't "tinny" in the least. And also very important, they are EXTREMELY comfortable! I can wear them ALL DAY (and I have many times!). The sit perfectly on my head, and after a short period of time I forget they are there. I highly reccomend these.(...)
Rating: Summary: Studio Quality Review: I purchased these headphones in hopes of finding an adequate replacement for my Klipsch Pro Media 5.1 system during the midnight hours...I was off target with these headphones. The bass is weak, they distort at fairly low volumes in my opinion, and they produce a very inaccurate reproduction of every note I pushed through them. Save your money and buy a higher-end pair of headphones.
