These headphones are nice, they go around the back of your head (instead of over the top like traditional headphones). There aren't any adjustable parts, so there is no place to catch hair (a problem with my old headphones). I think they sound and look nice. The only slight drawback is they have a part that fits behind your ear, making them difficult (but not impossible) to wear with glasses.

This is a great sounding, excellent fitting, durable pair of headphones. Which is why when the foam that surrounds the earpieces wore off I looked around for a replacement. From Sony those little foam pads cost 15.95 A PIECE... Did I also mention that you have to pay 6.95 in shipping? Ridiculeous...They have not heard the last of me ;-)

Although these headphones are not perfect they are pretty close and this is considering that they are only $.... I bought these dispite the reviews saying that these hurt your ears alot. When I recieved them I used them for about 4 hours on a trip to Connecticutand I didn't have any problems with them hurting my ears and i have a fairly large head. The styling on these is also very good because they go behind your head instead of on top like traditional headphones. Although these are not to the quality of studio headphones, they are a great value and I would reccomend them to anyone who needs a good pair of portable headphones.
