| Subject: | The best headphones on the market...easy! |
| Quality:
| I've been a professional DJ for about 35 years. I don't remember when I bought these (at least 20 years ago...maybe more). I've owned maybe 15 different brands, ranging in price from $20.00 to over $300.00. These are the best I've ever used or owned. The sound quality is amazing (way better then the $300.00 Shures I own), The ear pads are nice and soft and they work as good today as the day I bought them. |
| Features:
| Some people may not like the coil cord, I do. Some people may not like the way the ear pieces fold when not in use, I do. They fold into a little ball that is easy to carry around. Great headphones!! |
| Ease of Use:
| I stand when I DJ. The fact that the cord is a coil is great. It helps keep it out of the way so it does not taggle up. |
| Value:
| I paid a lot more then American Musical is selling them for. At first I thought it was a lot of money. But after years and years of use. It's money well spent. If or when I blow these I will not even have to think about it. I'll be replacing them with another pair. Simply the best headphone money can buy! |

| Subject: | These Headphones Smoke |
| Quality:
| I was very impressed with the quality of the sound clean crisp and accurate. These phones are well made with quality materials and a comfortable fit. These work great for the recording I do, but connecting them to my headphone output on my amp delivers a great full sound for practicing late night. |
| Features:
| I like the coil cord it keeps it off the floor and from stepping on it. The duel plug 1/8 - 1/4 is nice feature. |
| Ease of Use:
| As long as you can get them on your head there pretty easy to use! |
| Value:
| These are priced right a great value. Worth every penny. |

| Subject: | Great at first, but after a year..... |
| Quality:
| I've had mine for almost a year now, and they are holding up quite nice. And I tend to beat up on my headphones. Tossing tehm on the mixer and desk dropping them repeatedly, so on and so forth. The sound quality is amazing I will give sony that. These cans sound really really good. Bass is tight and kicks hard without being too colored, highs are crisp and clean without an harshness. |
| Features:
| This is the part about the cans that make me want new ones. I hate the folding thing. I find it mostly gets in the way. Speaking of getting in the way, the number one reason I want new cans. The cord. It's coiled. I thought I would be able to live with this, but no. It's driving me insane. Something is always getting tangled up in the coils. Plus it make the cord heavy and pulls on the left ear piece when standing more the a couple feet away from the plug in. Sitting still and listening to a cd is fine. But My lead singer hates these things. Stand up to sing and the cord is completely aggravating. |
| Ease of Use:
| It would be so much better with a straight cord. Also wearing them for more then an hour or so at a time gets really uncomfortable. They are very very tight on your head. After three or four hours of tracking, it feels like my head is in a vice. |
| Value:
| Well the sound qaulity is amazing, but the everyday use of these cans is annoying. |

| Subject: | Surprisingly Accurate Sound |
| Quality:
| I wanted a Sony brand of headphones because every Sony piece of equipment I have bought has lasted way longer than any warrantee and they have a high-quality feel. When I used these headphones with my Korg digital piano, the reproduction was accurate and identical to the sounds from the speakers, and smooth and even across the entire range. They are more accurate and even than any headphones I have used in the past. |
| Features:
| The double-plug is useful. |
| Ease of Use:
| Very easy to use. |
| Value:
| It's a good value because you get top quality sound at a reasonable price. |
