I wish the George Foreman Headphones would come up in the GoldBox

Are the three SL300 headphones the same except for color? $100 for gold, $300 for Usain Bolts name on them?

Yes, all three of the SL300 headphones exactly the same except for the color. The gold pair (SL300GG) normally retails at $300 just like the others.

Viner inflated reviews! Few actually bought these, most are viner giveaways. Adding famous artists names to each does nothing to increase quality either. Beats by Dr Dre wannabees. Should sell for under $30.

I have a cheap set of Fitty Cent earphones that aren't bad at all.

What are the included batteries with these for?

My daughter has Sony Red X headphones on her list. Are these comparable?

The Soul headphones feature active noise cancellation. The batteries are for that.

what do you expect for $99?? You want good headphones, buy Sennheiser or the Bose Quiet Comfort. But again, in life you get what you pay for.

In reply to an earlier post on Dec 21, 2012 4:07:31 AM PST
Bose is garbage. No highs, no lows, must be a Bose. I do work in studios, producing music, we laugh at Bose.

Kinda funny. So adding famous names to each does nothing to increase quality, but Beats by DR DRE are fine, huh? :)

These rapper phones come and go with the wind. At $99.00, bargains? If you listen to mostly rap, bass heavy "music", MP3s, I'd probably wait for the V-Moda 100 to Gold Box. You'd like a quick gift for your favorite basshead, these will do, and they can always be returned if the fit, sound, QC don't satisfy.

Search Innerfidelity for reliable reviews sourced from quality test equipment and human ears.

Jazz/Classical/Audiophiles need not apply, unless you desire inexpensize traveling phones to be used with portable devices, and save your serious listening for home.

Look, in this price range (under $500) there is only one pair of headphones to really consider, and that is the Audio Technica ATH-M50. It is both the #1 rated and #1 selling (to audiophiles) headphone. And not due to untrustworthy, seeded, "Vine" reviews. Amazon is selling them today for $130; a couple of weeks ago, they were discounted to $99. You want something other than the Audio Technica? Fine, look at a reputable audio manufacturer. Don't waste your money on over-hyped crap from Dr. Dre (currently made by Monster), 50 Cent, Ludacris, et al.

I have nothing to add to this discussion, I just post in the Deal Of The Day because I need attention.

Headphones are always a great topic for debate. Someone says they work in a studio, so they think they're an expert. Most of our hearing isn't acute enough to appreciate the highs and lows delivered by really high quality headphones. I have a pair of Sennheiser HD448 corded headphones I bought from Dahmart through Amazon for $35.00, and a pair of cordless Sennheiser MM450's I paid $250.00 for. They sound the same to me, although the MM450's were worth the extra money for the Bluetooth and noise cancelling functions. As for Vine reviews, I find them generally informative. I'm always a bit wary though of products that are given away to garner reviews.

Well, sure, if you have hearing difficulties, better headphones won't fix it.

The Sennheiser HD448 are great headphones if you can get them for $35.
