Excellent headphones for the money

A good set of on-ear headphones for the price. The sound quality is excellent with rich bass and excellent mids. Haven't found a dislike yet!

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Will write later

Good headphone for the price

Lightweight and comfortable and the sound quality is exceptional for the price of these headphones. If you love bass, this isn't for you. For the extra $2, the hard case and extra cable are worth it.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Out of style

Budget Headphones

You can't beat this $70 bundle of the legendary K240 headphones, case, extension cord and 1/4" adapter. Late 80s/early 90s. I compared the two in terms of sound. I prefer the old pair as the new pair is a bit dull in the high frequencies. However, it is a pleasant sound. For entry-level headphones, the AKG K240 is hard to beat.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Little Things

Excellent headphones that I…

EXACT headphones, not ILLUSION headphones.

Many people say that these headphones don't have very good bass. No, your mixes don't have good bass because if I'm looking at strong Pink Floyd or Dr. Listening to Dre or Soundgarder records, there is a lot of bass. I've listened to how great mixes sound in these headphones and I got back to my own work and said okay something needs to change so oddly enough these headphones are actually educational. They were recommended to me by a consultant from a major national chain and I bought a second…

Pros
  • High-quality workmanship
Cons
  • Not everything fits
