Advantages: Sound quality, comfort Disadvantages: Muddled wires, earpieces falling off
On my quest for the perfect set of earphones I've tried out alot of different makes and models. The SHE9600 were one of the better pairs that I tried.

Comfort is great too : after a few minutes, I forget I'm actually wearing them.
To give you a comparison point, for home listening I have a Sennheiser HD280 Pro (200$), wich is very good, and the PhilipsSHE9700 are surprisingly similar in sound signature. I can't believe I paid only 10$ for this sound quality! But even at its suggested retail price, I would ...
