These headphones are not bad. I mean for $9.83 I wasn't expecting high quality sound. I wanted to buy
some headphones to mess with or use for basic casual use because I tend to be scared of breaking the
chord when I am out and about with my other expensive in-ear buds or studio quality headphones. I tried
these with the Fiio E5 headphone amplifier (just for fun) and it's at best a decent sound (I give it
a 6 out of 10). When I tried them on my home desktop, along with the Fiio E5, and an equalizer to
increase the treble and mids... it sounded better. The sound went from a low quality 6 to a listen able
8 out of 10).

The downside about those who wear glasses (such as myself) is that it does apply a lot of pressure when
using these for more than 30 minutes. I have to take them off, take a break, and then continue using them
again. So far I am wearing them right now and listening to Poi Dog Pondering and I must say it sounds
pretty damn good for mellow music, but it's not meant for the heavier genres such as metal, alt-rock, or
post/grunge rock. I don't recommend these for classical either seeing that the mids and highs are just not
there. The bass is adequate but not pulse pounding. I range the bass from a 4 out of 10. Overall, these
headphones sound great for mono or soft musical genres.

Would I buy these headphones again? Yes, I would for the sole purpose of using them out in public and listening
to soothing soft toned music, but not for more aggressive genres.

This is a pretty good set of headphones for the price. They are very sturdy and comfortable, especially compared to stock mp3 player headphones. They're probably too bulky for use with an iPod, but they're good for computer use and I like the long 9 ft. cord.

I'm not an audiophile, but the sound is on the bassy side, so don't expect high quality audio.

Build is plastic but the headphones have a solid feel. They do a good job blocking out external noise. Bass is strong and not too muddy. The main weakness is the treble. High frequency sounds such as cymbals sound a bit dull, like the treble control is turned down. Using an equalizer improved the sound.

'Bulk Pack' means that there is no packaging. The headphones are packed in a simple plastic bag in the shipping box.

I am delighted with these headphones. Sound is great. After adjusting the tension on the headband they are very comfortable. Unlike some headphones the sound is contained in the headphone which means that other people aren't disturbed while you are using them.

Didn't measure the stereo cord but it looks like six feet.

I bought these headphones because I was in search of a cheap pair for song editing. I found these and read around the reviews and immediately decided to give them a try. I'm SO glad I did, they have a great amount of bass and sound quality is great. These are a must buy consumers looking for a sturdy, good sounding pair of headphones.

best headphones i have found and the bonus is that the price is low...fantastic product

I definitely wasn't expecting these to sound like anything more than a $10 pair of headphones. They sound much better than that. All plastic, but fit pretty well with no discomfort. Music sounds pretty good. A little too much boomy bass, but the headphones don't rattle which makes it tolerable. Very clear at high volumes with little distortion. My ears began to sweat after 20 minutes, but I expected that. Overall a good purchase on a nice pair of bargain headphones. Recommended.

You won't find a better value. I'm a musician with a home studio. Nothing professional, just a hobbyist. These work great for that. They sound great and have an extra long cord, 9 feet I beleive, icing on the cake!

I got a pair of these headphones about 3 years ago for free and I didn't know what to expect from these unknown babies. So i started using them while making music and realized I found a diamond in the rough. These headphones may not say Dre on the side or have a $100 price tag but they are completely worth it. That is why I ordered two because I did not know how long they would be around. One of them is for taking places while my original stays at the studio and the other is just for back up. Get these headphones you won't regret it if you are on a budget. BOW!!! oh yea these headphones when I got them were for the low low low....price went up now

Pros: These headphones quality is amazing for the price, sure its no audiophiles dream headphones, but for the price this is the best value you can have. I saw some reviews where the person complained about how tight these headphones are on the head and I and my little sis haven't had that problem.

Cons: none

summary: if you want a durable, high quality, great valued headphones this is what you should get.
