  • All you'll ever need in a studio headphone

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Feb 13, 2007
    Pros: Good clear sound, blocks outside noises well, quality craftsmanship and detailed parts list.
    Cons: Not for the average music listener, cord can be annoying sometimes.

    Summary: If you spend any amount of time in a studio like I do you'll know how very important it is to have quality headphones at your disposal. Not all studio speaker are the same and if you always want to hear your recordings on a level playing field studio ... read more

  • Not the Weakest Link!

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 17, 2006
    Pros: Fantastic Sound Quality, Easily Compacted, Reliable
    Cons: Foam Cover Peeling, Relatively Low Portability

    Summary: As we all know, audio quality is only as good as your weakest component. Whether it's my newest CD, my T ablet PC, or my R oland Keyboard, it matters that I have headphones that will ... read more

  • My second pair in 20 years

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Sep 2, 2006
    Pros: Sound quality! Dependibility, ruggedness, comfort, price.
    Cons: None.

    Summary: I had a pair of these that I bought new in the late '80s and they were incredible even back then. And back then it seems like I paid something like $150 for them, which would be well over $200 today. They were workhorses and the comfort and fidelity ... read more

  • The Best in Any Price Range

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 25, 2006
    Pros: Sound quality, especially bass response; design, ergonomics, weight, construction quality, price.
    Cons: Cord too heavy in relation to phones. Sub-par sound insulation.

    Summary: This review was updated on 12/9/06 to reflect my long-term experience with the product as well as my improved grammar and spelling skills. I compared many headphones while I was making my decision by listening to them side-by-side, and some were ... read more

  • Good enough for the pros, good enough for me

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 25, 2006
    Pros: Sound quality, comfort, durability, storage bag, size.
    Cons: None so far that I can think of.

    Summary: After doing much research on headphones, even purchasing similar brands, I headed out to my local Sam Ash Music store and purchased these headphones to enjoy my music from my Ipod, computer, and Home Theatre System while at home reclined back relaxing. ... read more

  • Very good balance between sound quality, weight, price and comfort

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jan 11, 2005
    Pros: Extended and flat frequency response, comfortable, rugged, portable
    Cons: Deepest bass is weak but it is hard to notice.

    Summary: For many years I have owned Stax electrostatic (SR-5) and Koss (Pro4AAA) dynamic headphones and extensively tried AKG, and Bang & Olufsen as well. I have tried around-the-ear (Stax, Koss, Sennheiser), on the ear (AKG), electrostatic or dynamic, all ... read more

  • great headphones, good price too

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 24, 2004
    Pros: value, great bass, crystal clear, easy to drive
    Cons: Highs can get shrill; can be revealing, so i wouldn't buy if you like MP3s

    Summary: I got these in Stockholm at a rip-off price, (around 160 euro/dollars), but i needed them rapidly for the flight home. And I'm not at all regretting the purchase. I bought them, let them play a looped MD for 2 days, and then left Sweden, the 6 hour ... read more

  • Great Sound, Value.

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 13, 2003
    Pros: High quality audio: clarity, bass response, accurate audio reproduction at a reasonable price
    Cons: Not the best as a portable headphone, but that isn't the aim.

    Summary: Before I purchased these headphones, I had only owned the generic 20-30 dollar headphones - a pair of earbuds for travel and a pair of streetstyle phones for comfort. I decided it was time to invest in a decent pair of headphones, and I began looking ... read more

  • Could not wear for longer than 1 hour without pain on ears.

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Mar 27, 2008
    Pros: Good bass response and overall sound quality.
    Cons: Couldn't wear very long at all.

    Summary: Well, I was used to a pair of Sennheiser 280 Pro headphones. They started to break down a bit, cracking on the plastic areas but the sound and comfort was great. I thought that by all the great reviews these would be a great replacement and boy was I

  • Nice sounding headphones

    Apr 24, 2004
    Pros: Clean sounding, can turn it up, great bass response.
    Cons: Seems to need a break in period right out of the box.

    Summary: I purchased these for the express reason of producing professional sounding home recordings. So far, these sound very nice. The bass response is phenomenal without being over bearing, tubby or blurred. You can really crank these up to. I reached the pain

  • Good sound but they hurt my ears.

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Dec 14, 2003
    Pros: Can pick up every detail in the audio
    Cons: Well, they hurt my ears.

    Summary: These are widely used by sound professionals, I suppose since they are very accurate & don't cost a whole lot. But I cannot wear them for very long, even at real low volume, before my ears start to hurt. I have the consumer version of these headphones,
