I really wanted to love these

I really wanted to love these headphones. I have been using Cyber Acoustics headphones daily for online study for 2.5 years. The headphones were comfortable; I could rotate the mic so it's left or right; the chord had a volume control; and the sound was VERY good. I tried to reorder this model, but unfortunately it is no longer in stock. I bought this pair hoping for similar characteristics and most importantly comfort. The sound is quite good, but as I said dull. I think it has more to do with how tight they are, which is a big complaint for me. I wore them for the first time today (I only got them yesterday) for about an hour and it was VERY uncomfortable. I need them for work and don't have time to return them and try another pair, but I don't recommend this model. I don't have a big head. Actually, my head is smaller (you need to order children's glasses), but it's exactly proportional ;). I could do without the other features mentioned, although I liked the ability to move the mic from side to side if needed and the extra volume control, but I hate wearing them every day. Sound wise I was able to hear my students perfectly but there was something odd about the sound and I wonder if it's just because it blocks out external noise really well giving it a dull quality. Time will tell I think. But in general, the price is very good, the sound is good, but the discomfort is almost unbearable.

Pros
  • comfortable things
Cons
  • So far so good
