I have to say that these are terrible headphones. Beyond poor. They are tinny, sibilant, thrashy, not very comfortable and built extremely cheaply, even for the cheapish price tag.

To my ears, the sound best compares with the cheap, nasty, generic earphones that come bundled with most mobile phoes or MP3 players these days.

For a similar price, Superlux HD668B knock the stuffing out of them, and are upgradable with better earpads from the AKG range.

Avoid!

When I first got these headphones I was expecting good Quality as my last £20 Technics Headphones was very good. When I tried them on I was impressed with the comfort these headphones provide but when it came to listening to music I was shocked because there was too much treble, little mid and absolutely no bass at all. My apple earphones produce better clarity and a more balenced sound than these, save your money and read What HIFI mag on recommended headphones

These are very poor headphones, the high end is WAY to loud and lacks clarity.

I'm taking mine back to the shop asap
