Very good for a beginner studio!

Low price and cool color. It is very popular with vocalists and dictors and good sound quality.

Lasting Quality

These headphones are proving themselves to be very durable after heavy-handed use in sessions. The headband design means that there is no plastic that could crack when stretching. A very neat feature is that these headphones don't require you to adjust the sizing for your head. They have some sort of elastic mechanism that fits your head as you put them on.

These headphones sound very flat and accurate. Would be great for mixing and also monitoring during sessions. Although some people who use them casually might be put off by the lack of bass.

I would recommend these over the Sony MDR-7506s as the frequency response is more pleasing and these headphones are more comfortable.

Not exactly what I expected!

I bought these as a monitor set for recording. Firstly the colour was grey and not the bright orange I had ordered. They look quite ugly in grey. However that is only superficial. They most certainly do not have the look of a high quality set of headphones. Have a very plastic feel. They are kind of heavy and you would not wear for long periods of time. That's kind of where the bad points end.

The quality of sound is excellent. Perfect for recording. They isolate the sound enough to prevent over spill into the mic.

Overall good headphone for the job and good value for money.

PERFECT!!!!

...seriously... I bought these headphones expecting the worst due to pricing but how wrong I was... monitoring my music is just right.... detachable cable and extra very long cable also included... now - there are obvious price cut on material and noise suppression tech but over all you will not be sorry.... these bad boys are a GO!!

Good monitoring headphones.

First of all, don't expect the same build quality that you might expect from Sennheiser, AKG or Audio Technica, however, the sound quality is exceptional for the cost. It's a fairly neutral, uncoloured sound but with plenty of volume. Comfort levels are good too on account of their light weight, so listening for extended periods of time shouldn't be too fatiguing. Of course the bright orange colour might not be to everyone's liking, but it's unlikely you'll lose them! If you need to kit out a small studio with with inexpensive headphones, these are certainly worthy of consideration. Nice silk bag to keep them safe and clean. Would I replace them? Yes probably. Recommended.
