Advantages: Comfort, value for money, durability Disadvantages: Poor bass
Sound Quality
The sound is crisp and full and the subtle nuances of songs are picked up. Even at high volumes the treble is clear and the distortion of the Strokes is not exaggerated by the headphones. However, the bass is disappointing, even with Bass increased on my ipod and listening to bassy music its unimpressive compared to other headphones. This is probably the only significant drawback for the headphones as a whole.
... ...very good-looking headphones, much more so than the Sennheisers in their price range. They are a perfect size for the ear but are not so big as to impare comfort when round you're neck or leaning against something. The method adjustment of size is smooth and unusually subtle compared to other relatively cheap headphones.
Durability and Comfort

Looks and Design
These are very good-looking headphones, much more so than the Sennheisers in their price range. They are a perfect size for the ear but are not so big as to impare comfort when round you're neck or leaning against something. The method adjustment of size is smooth and unusually subtle compared to other relatively cheap headphones.
Durability and Comfort
The headphones seem very well-made and unlikely to break. The materials are clearly not cheap although this could be expected considering the sound quality for such a low price. In terms of comfort, these headphones are fantastic, they are snug and the material surrounding the headphone itself is very comfortable. Even being worn for hours at a time there is no pain or discomfort.
Value for money
For around £50 these headphones are remarkably good value, I would not have felt hard done by if I had paid twice as much and considering that these are not much more than headphones with far inferior sound quality, comfort and durability, these are in my opinion the best value for money headphones under £100.
Advantages: good sound, great bass and good treble, comfy and cool Disadvantages: quite big over the ear, poke out, treble can wash out
COMFORT These headphones are really very comfortable. I have sat for hours with them on and they aren't sweaty and sit well on the head, you won't notice them. Like most over ears they stick out a bit and can occasionally get in the way, for instance when trying to sleep on the plane, but I flew 4 hours recently without discomfort. LOOKS The headphones look great. The sleek and shiny black surface of the cups looks cool, and the design is minimalist- ... ...black, and overall the design is a definite plus point. SOUND Of course sound quality is the most important element for headphones, and on these it is very good for under £50. The bass is quite powerful, and plays well, particularly rock bass from older music. Without being uncomfortable the levels on the bass are very good, and well balanced. The treble is also good, while perhaps not as strong, and plays well in classical music and rock and pop, ...
