Philips HS-500 Headphones

Pros: Low price, sounds better than stock headphones of iPod and other MP3 players, comfortable, sturdy
Cons: Does not sound as good as 15-dollar Koss KSC75

The first thing one should do after getting an iPod or another MP3 or CD player is replace the stock headphones with something better. Although the headphones that come with iPods are not terrible, you can improve the sound significantly by spending less ...

Pros: Sounds really good; well priced
Cons: Unfit for use in very loud environments

You’re in a bit of a pickle if you happen to be music obsessive and in college. To begin with, there’s that tricky matter of balancing the oft-spirit-deadening workload with dishearteningly pedestrian recreation (throwing around a Frisbee ...

Pros: Bass output is on par with the larger headphones.
Cons: None so far.

I was quiet surprised at how good these sound, they actually have bass. I was looking for a replacement for my Ipod. I purchased the Sony MDR-G73LP, but was not happy with them. Then I purchased these headphones.

Pros: Phenomenal bass response, comfortable, great to replace iPod headphones.
Cons: Nothing at all as far as functionality. Blue accents awkward, but it's minor.

Not that much to say, really. This is a great set for the price. The bass response is better than headphones I've tried that cost more than three times these. The mids are good and the treble really sparkles when it needs to. I recommend this set. The only thing is they look kinda funky. I kinda wish they would have just been black all around rather than mess with the blue accents. Highly recommended!
