this is a great pair of replacement headphones, sounds good, feels good and they fit well on the head. i would recommend these headphones as a replacement for any OEM phones and at [a good price], it just doesn't get any better.

I've had these for a few months, and I have been very pleased. They are comfortable, the cover is not the normal cheap foam - it feels more like the large studio headphones.

They also block out alot of sound with a small size, and have great range. My music has alot of depth with these, which makes a big difference over other headphones.

The cord is long, making them very useful for my daily commute as well as use at the computer. They fold to a pretty compact size and fit easily into the included pouch.

My only complaint is that after about 45 minutes, they start to feel a little snug.

these little suckers have some punch, plus some accuracy, and I am a jazz/classical listenter, not overly enamored by bass gimmicks

I love these, despite the fact that within only a few hours of having them, the "leatherette" covering on the earpads started disintegrating and peeling off. A few days later, tired of having flecks of black "leather" come off on me, my hair, my clothes, my furniture, I rubbed the rest of it off. They function just as well, and I think that JVC would have been better off just leaving the foam bare than to put that faux leather on them. It looks as though it was sprayed on. The sound, however, is the best of any of the portable headphones I have used, including earbuds. They are comfortable (when they aren't peeling all over you), the fact that they fold up makes them easy to stick in my bag, and the sound range is very good. Good value.

These headphones easily beat the Sennheisers and at only $15 that's insane. The bass is great and the mids solid. Treble is the only thing somewhat lacking, but only somewhat. I'd give these headphones 5 stars if it weren't for the fact that after using them for only 7 days, the ear pads have started disintegrating. The soft faux leather that holds the foam in has started completely coming apart. It started with cracking and now has moved on to little pieces peeling off revealing the pleather underneath. It's not a huge deal since the pleather still holds the foam on, put I can't believe these were made this cheap. With sound this good I can't say I'm surprised since they had to cut costs somewhere.

Anyway if you want great sound, and don't care about quality then these are for you. I am keeping them based on the fact that they demolished the other headphones I tried in the bass area (Including the PMX60 Sennheisers). Since I wear them at work I wanted a small headphone but big bass. These are the only pair I've found that deliver that.

Hope this helps.
