  • Are A $20 Pair Of Headphones Any Good? Sort of.

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 19, 2005
    Pros: Cheap, reliable, and distortion free.
    Cons: Ear muffs don't cover the ear tightly allowing outside noise in.

    Summary: To me, there's only one reason to own a pair of bulky headphones that completely cover the ears --- to filter out the sounds of the surrounding environment. So that's why a buddy bought me a pair of ear muff headphones as a gift several years ago. I ... read more

    Pros: Excellent price, no distortion, convenient built-in volume controls, closed-ear
    Cons: None.

    Summary: I have deleted this review after Epinions deactivated my account AND cancelled all my earnings. Granted, my earnings were a non-whopping $7.49 and I probably would have never redeemed them anyway. But I am deeply disturbed by their practice. I haven't ... read more

  • Great Headphones for under $20

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community

    Pros: Cheap, 10 feet long cable, great sound, looks good.
    Cons: independent volume controls.

    Summary: I haven't come across any headphones that are this good and cost under $20. It sounds great, with clear highs and lows. The cable is 10 feet long giving ample room to move around. It includes the 1/4" adapter to use with mini-shelf systems, keyboards, ... read more

    Pros: Long cord, stereo/mono switch, fairly comfortable
    Cons: Not a snug fit, sound is so-so

    Summary: I purchased these based on the other opinions here. Great sound at around 20 bucks sounds nice. I'm kind of disappointed in them though, so I'm taking them back. If the bass is turned up slightly and the treble is turned up quite a bit, they sound
