Obviously the most important aspect to consider when buying headphones is sound qualiy. I am pleased to say that these hold up in this department also.

Picture the scene, You arrive home from buying you new portable mp3/cd/cassette player only to find out that through the headphones provided it sounds like 10 angry wasps trapped in a beer can. Well this nightmare scenario need no longer be the case, if you invest a little extra in these babies.

I would recommend these headphones to anyone who likes to listen to music while on the move, as they sound good, stay put and look good.

Availiable from most high street retailers for aroung £15-20
