Using these headphones i'm hearing certain songs in ways I've never heard before, with incredible comfort that makes me forget i'm even wearing them. Very durable, too. You won't regret buying these; they're worth every dollar.

"If you're bass hungry, these may not be for you"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I spend all day listening to music while working at my computer, so I was looking for good quality headphones that are light and comfortable to wear. These definitely fit the bill – no discomfort whatsoever, even after several hours of use. Sound wise: if you're used to headphones with loads of bass, these will be a shock to the system as the sound is relatively flat. I had to tweak the EQ settings on my PC to enhance the bass tones a little. Other than that, these are excellent headphones for the price.

"Outstanding headphones for the money"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

These headphones are great considering how much you pay for them. In terms of sound quality they are indistinguishable from the M50× headphones, with a nice flat frequency that doesn't overdo it on the bass. These are probably the best headphones I have used for listening to metal/rock music as it doesn't distort the sound by applying too much bass.

The plastic material feels a tad cheap, but the metal band inside headband and connects to the cups is rock solid. The leathery material used on the ear cups and headband is also top-notch and very comfortable.

Only real gripe I have with them is they put quite a bit of pressure on your jaw under you ear, and for the first week of use you could definitely feel the cups pushing on them. After that first week they broke in and could barely notice them anymore.

These headphones sound way better than all my other headphones/ear­phones with no mushiness what so ever also very comfy and light. You will definitely notice the difference when compared to other headphones/ear­phones.

"Punches far above its weight"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

These are my favourite wired everyday use headphones. The sound is brilliant out of the box and does not need EQ adjustments for a great listening experience. Great build quality, robust, and comfortable. Arguably it does a better job than headphones double its cost.

"Amazing Product!!"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great Product and fast Delivery, Literally 1 day after I paid for it. :) Used them for Drums and they hold great low Bass sounds and minimizes background sounds. Very Comfortable. Although I would recommend a more higher quality Headphones but these are great for their price and well designed. Happy to upgrade in the future :)

"Pretty damn good little expensive"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

These Audio Technica's are great for listening to songs with but to be honest I think Mighty Ape has them priced quite highly but if you can afford the M50's then get those instead otherwise these are good.
