I use these headphones solely for practicing and playing guitar with my amp when I don't want to disturb anyone else. I can crank it up and get great sound through these headphones without annoying the neighbors.#Sweepstakes

Was skeptical after reading reviews and already are wearing out my third set of Bose AE2's. I got these for convenience and economics to leave on my DAW so I wouldn't have to keep transporting my AE2's around. These sound as good or better! Very surprised and I FULLY recommend...

pretty good and crisp for recording guitar

Definitely a great pair of headphones for an everyday user for relaxing and listening. But I'm pretty impressed how well they sound when recording guitar,and drums sound pretty tight and clear as well. I ended up going pack and getting two more pairs for Christmas gifts!

I would buy this item again. Great product.

I use to listen through my computer to YouTube for example. I listen to my audiophile stereo system. I listen to background tracks as I practice flute and saxophone. It delivers a good sound. The only drawback I see so far is that the jack is not quite long enough to use in my cell phone.

Actual trash.

not really adjustable at all... the top strap is stretchy and fixed in place. the wire is like really heavy and the headphones are not heavy at all so they flop off all the time. possibly the worst wired headphones I've ever had the super lightweight drivers sound like earbud speakers.

I bought 1, for me, in store. When I saw them go on sale, I bought 3 more based on the use that I've already accrued with the 1st. I have a home studio for 7 YouTube channels, 3 podcasts, and now am internet radio station. They're not "high end," but sound like it! Must buy!

Great headphones, great price.

These are great. I got them on sale, so for the money, they're really amazing. I'd give them 5 stars, but they're a little too big on me (I have a surprisingly small head). They adjust well and are very comfortable for a range of other people. Overall, great headphones.

Bought 3 pairs to use for clients while tracking live. Luckily I tested a set out before they arrived. The left speaker in the headphones failed within a few minutes of listening. Save your money for a higher quality set.

Sounds like someone wiggling a piece of paper in a way that's reminiscent of music. SUCH a flat sound. Really disappointed. The headphones that came with my interface sound better, and that's not good.

Clear audio and comfortable !!!

Used for recording on my Tascam DP-008EX mini recording studio and plonking around on one of my bass guitars. Purchased this in a bundle as when the cost is broken down made everything very affordable ! Clear sound and no pain over my ears or a headache after hours of use. Good deal !!!

These are used best for tracking, whether it be vocals, instruments, etc. Not that good for mixing, as the sound is too flat and tinny.

Its okay I do not know if I'll buy again.
