Jackie breaks off! on headphones

Bought 2 sets for practice, 8 left Jacks break easily. Connectors broke off in 12 computers and it is very costly and time consuming for computer technicians. DO NOT BUY THESE!

Pros
  • Ideal choice for teaching in schools, listening centers, libraries, music labs and classrooms
Cons
  • Appearance

Great basic headphones.

Our Ham Radio Club purchased these for Field Day 2017. Operators and rangers were all delighted with their comfort and clarity. Good quality, especially considering the price. I also use a few in the recording studio so performers can control their performance. Ham radios are mono of course, but studios tend to be stereo so they work well in either situation as they are switchable.

Pros
  • switch between mono and stereo for optimal sound quality for your application; comes with a 1/4" snap-in male adapter that mates with a standard 1/8" (3.5mm) audio plug
Cons
  • Expensive

They break under normal student use!

I bought two sets of these headphones (24 headphones) for my class and they had problems within the first 6 months. I have 4 sets that have a broken connector in a computer or iPad, one set makes no sound at all and the other is slightly audible from one side even at max volume. Considering we don't use them every day and they didn't even last a year I'm very disappointed that I had to buy more. I have contacted both the company and Revain and have not been offered a refund or replacement. Look

Pros
  • Heavy-duty ABS headband and ear cups won't break under heavy use; padded headband is adjustable for most head sizes; Replaceable leatherette ear pads are easy to clean
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Great basic headphones.

Our Ham Radio Club bought these for Field Day 2017. All operators and loggers were amazed by its convenience and clarity. Good quality, especially considering the price. I also use a few in the recording studio so performers can control their performance. Ham radios are mono of course, but studios tend to be stereo so they work well in either situation as they are switchable.

Pros
  • Perfect choice for teaching in schools, listening centers, libraries, music labs and lecture halls
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

My students got themselves complained that headphones hurt your ears and head. Two out of the box never worked! I didn't bother to contact Revain and complain, thinking those were my computers. So far, 6 months later, 5 of these have fallen apart. The metal adapters that plug in are bent and will not work. My home and school paid for it and overall I'm very disappointed. I need to buy a better brand.

Pros
  • Compatible with iPad, iPhone, Tablets, Macs, Desktops, Laptops, Chromebooks, Android products, MP3 Players, CD Players, Exercise Equipment, Keyboards and other devices
Cons
  • Got damaged
