best headphones for the money10/10/2012
 
Pros:
Sound as if you have a 20 inch woofer on each ear
Cons:
Earcup sweat, tough for any physical activities
Other Thoughts:
Even Sony has tried a redesign, to make these headphones prettier, but for those who know, when you see someone with these on, you know they are absolute bassheads

Amazing!5/15/2012
 
Pros:
The frequency range is amazing! I’ve never heard such deep and defined bass with Beats. They really shine when you use an equalizer but, it isn’t necessary. You hear can clearly hear the difference out of the box. The highs and mids are, in fact, clearer than any other pair I’ve owned. That says a lot for a "Bass-head" pair of headphones. They can quake if that is what you want but, what some fail to realize is that the sound-stage these create is nearly that of a concert hall! (even being closed-backed) Acoustic and Orchestral scores are absolutely engulfing and immersing while maintaining clarity on all frequencies. while these are marketed for bass, I find that they exceed at every genre I listen to. It should also be noted that these are the softest and arguably the most comfortable headphones I’ve owned.
Cons:
These things are massive. You will get looks if you wear these in public. They fit comfortably around my neck but, I do look rather goofy. They create a bit of a slight pressure on my head but only because I am unwilling to extend them. its honestly just my preference; they fit me so well un-extended, but you might have to loosen them up a bit to alleviate this. This is not a major problem that i have with them, just an observation.

Unbeleiveable!12/14/2011
 Best headphones you can get for the price the sound stage is great and the lows and highs and mids are clear i dont have a single critisism. Dont wait any longer you wont be disapointed!

Awesome :)9/15/2011
 These just arrived today in great shape! came in after 3 days. They’re awesome. Haven’t ever put anything more comfortable over my ears. I have been using them for about an hour and it seems as they break in they get better and better. The bass is great, and natural. I’m happy I bought them. Great price for a great buy.
