...I bought a Sony D-E221 cd player with it and the headphones give excellent sound. They are also quite comfortable. They look good and match the colour of my portable cd player, too. So, my advice is: If you can afford it, go for it!

These headphones sound great, and are lightweight. Since the headband goes behind your nexk, they are good for when you are wearing a hat, or if you are worried about messing up your hair (I have none so that was not an issue with me). They fold up into a flat "package" about the size of a baseball. And for such small phones, they have good bass.

The problem I had is they have rubber "tabs" that ride on top your ears to help hold the phones in place. They did not sit well with the earpieces of my glasses, causing discomfort. I ended up giving them to a friend who raves about them.

Best headphones I ever bought. The sound is awesome, deep bass and everything. It's like having two Cambridge Soundworks speakers on your ears, only the headphones are much lighter:) Plus, they don't mess up your hair when you wear them. And yes, those who wear eye glasses will feel a slight discomfort since the frame from the glasses is constantly being pressed into your ears by those anti-slip rubber thingies. But you'll get used to them. And hey, it's either the slight discomfort or your hair getting messed up.

there are a lot of problems with it. First, the good points: Very comfortable, although if you have a lot of hair around your ears, they may be a bit snug. Very good sound, it's awesome.

Bad points: The cord is WAY, WAY too long. I don't know how many times it's gotten stuck around my CD player and yanked it to the floor. I don't know how many times they've gotten stuck around door handles on cars, or armrests on cars. Also, the cord is VERY flimsy. They wear out way too quickly. I've had them for about four months, and already the padding around the ears is starting to rip, and the little tabs that go around your head are starting to pop off.

Bottom line: I don't know. They're ..., and don't last long, the cord is long, I've cussed that thing so many times...However, it doesn't get stuck in your hair and it has great sound. Worth it, if you have money, but if not, get some standard headphones and wait till Sony makes them cheaper/better.

These are good headphones especially if you want to wear the m in the beach all while runing. Good sound and durable. The fifth star is lost because they tendto be a bit uncomfortable if you wear them for a long period of time.

I've had these headphones for about two or three years now. They just six months ago started falling apart. The main problem for me was that the cord connecting both phones (in the band that goes behind your head) kept falling out. And when I put it back in, it just won't stay there. This started to get a little annoying. But, they are still the most comfortable behind-the-neck style headphones (that is, if you take out those wierd plastic things near the phones). If I hadn't taken out those plastic things, I couldn't have worn them for thirty minutes at a time. But, now that they are gone, I can wear them comfortably for about two hours. The sound quality is very good for these style headphones, and the price is decent. All around, a pretty good buy.

These headphones are awesome. They have great sound quality, are comfortable, and are cheap(no more then twenty bucks at a retail store). The only downside is that they begin to come apart after a while. The parts that come off are the rubber tabs behind the ears and the foam on the earpieces. Even after this they are fully functional(still), but are not nearly as comfortable anymore.

The headphones are fine for sound - no complaints there, but they pinch my ears worse than any other headphone I've tried.

These Sony headphones continue the line of great Sony products I own. The "Street Style" is comfortable however I would not recomend it for those who wear glasses. It is advantagious for people who like to wear hats or dont want their hair mussed becuase of a headband as these have a neckband instead. As for quality I was pleasently suprised when I tried these on for the first time. They distort very little and can handle a suprising amount of bass for their tiny size. They are crisp and clear, unusual for headphones or their size and price. A great buy.

These headphones are great! They fit comfortably because it's "street style headphones." They fit around your neck so your hair won't get messy. There's very good sound quality because of the golded platted plug you plug in so gold has better sound quality. So if you're looking for some great headphones, take these, they are AWESOME!!!
