Headphones reviews

Great sound, pair them with the Turtle Beach AudioAdvantage USB sound card. The headphones have very deep bass, great clarity. Quality does compare to Bose, under one condition, you BYPASS THE POTENTIOMETER!!!!

The volume knob crapped out after about a year, and I knew the headphones were still good. I pulled the volume control out of the headphones, and they are amazing.

I can (even though it's not good for my hearing) crank the bass up, and actually have these vibrate on my head with the beat, without any distortion.

Crack the plastic, look at the wires on the volume control, pull the volume control out, solder the wires together with their corresponding colors. Coat the solder with liquid electrical tape. Then put the plastic back on, leaving the gromits on the cables, this keeps them durable. Cover the plastic with Heat Shrink tubing to make it look nice again.

Pro's: Excellent sound quality, nice long cable
Con's: Volume Control has to be bypassed

I've had them for 2 years, and i've given them quite a beating, even with a Alesis MultiMix firewire sound card (which has a very nice headphone amplifier for studio recording) and they handle it very well, I've compared them to Bose and Shure headphones, and they are right up there.

I've had two pairs of this model. This is an excellent purchase for the price. The headphones offer great sound and distinctive bass. The 16 foot cord comes in useful at times. One disadvantage would be that the in-line volume control begins to fail after EXTREMELY PROLONGED use. I had my first pair for at least 4 years before I experienced any sort of problems.

These headphones are okay. The sound is good and I love the option of changing the volume right on the cord. The only draw back was major for me; they don't work with my eye glasses.

I bought these almost 3 years ago and they were wonderful; as good as any I've ever had -- good price, too. Then the in-line volume control started messing up and I ended up throwing them away. Don't waste your money on the possibility that that the volume control won't fail.

My son also has these, and when I told him I was searching for good headphones and looking at the Bose and others for $150 range, he convinced me to try these. Except for them being bulkier for handling when not using, they give great sound and are very comfortable. I wear them for 60 to 90 minutes at a time and have no discomfort.
