Perfect for sleeping!

I use it to listen to books on my iPod and stay on all night. I fall asleep, the book turns off, and the headphones are so comfortable I don't even realize I'm wearing them.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Clarity

Superb sports headphones

I bought 2 pairs very cheaply from [.]. The intention was to use them for training and then throw them away when they died. The first couple bathed 3-4 times a week for almost a whole year! I sweat a lot and they definitely passed all the exams. The sound is surprisingly good, which I didn't expect for the price. I've tried in-ear headphones but the sound just doesn't compare to them. I would have her back in a heartbeat.

Pros
  • Sequins
Cons
  • Easy maintainability

The best headphones in the Headphones category

I really like these headphones, they are not really needed for the sound quality (which is not bad, but I've seen better ones). I love the design and also the cable which is really durable. Before discovering this guy I changed a lot of headphones because none lasts more than 3-4 months (heavy use and a lot of abuse) and this guy lasts a little over 2 years which was a big plus for me and so did they Price (really cheap, around $5 I think).

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Some flaws

Excellent purchase in Headphones

I use them all the time but I am replacing the headphone foam pads with thicker and thicker foam pads. Why? So they also serve as headphones when I go to sub-zero temperatures. Sometimes I buy other cheap headphones with thicker foam just to use the foam pieces from them. In any case the audio reproduction is good for the talk radio I always listen to, the headphones are very light and very durable, they fit my XXL head and the cable is the best - strong, durable, no tangles.

Pros
  • Looking forward to
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Good durability, not so good sound

Attention with these headphones: Pros: These headphones have a reinforced cable that makes it difficult to tear in two and interchangeable plates. Good for night runs. The Bad: Hmm, 99 cents plus $4 shipping, I've bought better headphones from Big Lots and Ross. The sound is weak. Even at maximum volume, the bass is only weakly pumped and the sound is consistent throughout. I am absolutely dissatisfied with these headphones. If you want cheap headphones, buy them from a discount store. Betterโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • Upgradable

Great for the price

I ordered them once [.] I had a pack of two for $5. I'm usually the first to say I don't like RCA products, but this is 100% the exception to that rule. The sound was surprisingly decent for the price (nothing special, but it was $2.50). What really won me over about them is how incredibly comfortable they are. They are great for running. Will definitely buy a box if I find them again, at $2.50 each. Make no mistake, these are NOT audiophile headphones. They sound decent, comfortable and cheap.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

You want it.

RCA HP242 Neckband Sport Headphones I have the EXpensivenoise noise canceling headphones, like all other cheap and mid-range headphones. For general use this is the best I have. They're comfortable, you hear great stereo sound - it just fills your head - and they're well made. The volume is adjusted so you can listen very quietly or very loudly, but still with excellent stereo sound. I bought my first pair about a year ago from a big store nearby just because I needed a pair on vacation andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • 1 year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only

simple design and perfect fit - but one flaw. flimsy ear pads

I love these RCA earphones. The sound quality is decent for the average user (I'm no expert here). And it fits perfectly - very light, flexible plastic floats behind the head and soft over the ears - just a very simple design that works. The cord is covered in a durable woven fabric and they have endured in my everyday purse, been used for running, worn on planes and sat down a few times in the last 9 months. My only problem with it is gone. Once I figure out the flimsy foam earpads they giveโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Poor instructions
