3 out of 5 eggsGreat Sound, horrible Comfort

Pros: These headphones are sturdily built and sound great.

Cons: They were very uncomfortable. As other reviewers said they are very tight on your head and I have an average size head, not a gargantuan cranium. They also sit uncomfortably on the top of your head, possibly because of the weight, and limited padding. The ear pieces were a tiny bit smaller than the other Sennheiser's I've tried, making my ears feel 'cramped'.
I couldn't wear them more than 30 minutes without a pretty good headache.

My Old HD 265s were infinitely more comfortable - they have larger ear pieces, weigh less and don't 'clamp' on your head nearly as tight. I have been able to ear those for hours and hours without any discomfort since I took them out of the box.

Other Thoughts: If you have a small head these may be comfortable, otherwise I'd look for another set of headphones.

5 out of 5 eggsSome boom for your buck.

Pros: What can I say? The headphones sound great. There's no shortage of volume, made even better with the fact that they're basically noise-canceling. The bass is especially able to be heard.

Cons: They're a bit... big. But that's made up in its comfortability.

1 out of 5 eggsDon't fall for the "User" Rating

Pros: They are Durable. The sound quality is decent, comparable to other headphones in a lower price bracket.

Cons: EXTREMELY TIGHT. They get uncomfortable after 1hour+. Even with the adjustments, it's just painful for your head.
Heavy bulky cord, if you need any extension it will drag the headphones.
Sound quality is not worth the price.
I've owned multiple "Gaming" headsets (fatal1ty, turtlebeach) with the exact same sound quality and they were much more comfortable to boot.

Other Thoughts: I got fooled by all the user ratings. Never gonna trust these anymore.
Discount deals always suck. Either settle for cheap or go all out for the good stuff.

5 out of 5 eggsAwesome headphones

Pros: I see a lot of people saying that these are bulky, heavy, uncomfortable. I don't know any headphones that are of this quality that are noticeably smaller in size. I don't think these are that heavy compared to the Bose / Dre Beats. And these headphones I think are super comfortable, I've been able to wear them for 4+ hours no problem.

Quality is superb, and value wise I don't think you can find more "bang for buck" headphones than these.

Cons: The wire is a 3 - 9ft coiled cable. If you are extend it will have varying degrees of retraction so you gotta have it plugged in to something that can support the weight of the cable. This isn't really a con I suppose though.

Other Thoughts: Sennheiser makes great headphones, and these compare to the dre beats / Bose headphones with great price! These bad reviews are bunk!

5 out of 5 eggsSennheiser headphones

Pros: Noise Cancelling, comfortable, sound amazing (of course), quality is amazing.

Cons: depending on how tight they are on me, they need to be adjusted over my ears after a long time.

Other Thoughts: These things are amazing. I always recommend these phones to anyone looking for new headphones. Of course they blow Beats By Dre out of the water. My brother has a pair, two of my friends have pairs, and I consider myself a very lucky man to own a pair.

5 out of 5 eggsCrystal Clear

Pros: Best headphones for $65. Crystal clear sound. Flat equalizer. Listen to a CD, and you'll really be amazed. Folds up into a compact design for those long flights.

Cons: They are a bit big and bulky, but all great headphones are.

4 out of 5 eggsgood,but heavy

Pros: great sound, bass is normal, but probably not enough for teenage bass lovers.
I hear a lot of sound I never know it's there before, totally blow my mind.
comfortable enough for 1 hr

Cons: heavy and bulky is my first impression and it still is. The weight really threw me off the first time I put it on, wondering where is comfortable I saw in other reviews.
I can't use this more than 2 hrs even I has been using this for 4+ months. just hurts.
May be it's partially my glasses.

Other Thoughts: obviously , one of the best in <$100 range. I got this for under $80, very happy. But I would consider throw in more money and get some thing more comfortable next time I buy headphone. Will try to walk in store to trial next time. After all, the sound, comfortable, etc. , are just personal preference, can't base every on reviews. Too bad, no such big store in my town.
First I thought it's just headphone, why spend so much money on it. But just like car, computer and other things, if you enjoy it, have money, go for it. Start cheap, work your way up and appreciate the upgrade. My $80 jump from $25 is like new laptop after 3 years, ready me to throw old one away with pressure.

5 out of 5 eggsBest.Headphones.Ever

Pros: Comfortable
Great sound
Build quality

Cons: A bit bulky maybe? Doesn't bother my any.

Other Thoughts: These things are phenomenal. They are a bit tight, so I left one of my son's 6 inch bouncy balls between the speakers for a couple nights and fixed that problem. Instructions are included showing how to replace all the padding and the cable for future wear. Lastly, the sound is incredible. Nothing like any headphones I've ever had.

4 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Awesome response. Tight bass. Overall great sound.
I'm very happy with these coupled with a high quality sound card. I've used these in live environments for PFL on a mixer. I hear stuff through these headphones that just disappear when listening on other cheaper sets.

Cons: You'll look like a dork wearing them.
The headband has started to come off and I can't find a replacement (after about 4 years).
I'm pretty sure these have been discontinued.
