Best Headphones so far These are one of the best headphones I have purchased so far. I had a set of Dr Dre Beats before which got stolen :(. So, I was looking for a nice set of Headphones which gives pretty good output for not so much money. After testing a few in Sony Store, this one just blew my mind off. This one is much better than the Beats one I had. April 20, 2013
Love Em i love these headphones. wear them around with me everywhere. quality is good, comfort is good, sound is amazing. the second i put these on and turned on the music i fell in love. walking down the street listening to music with these make the world feel perfect! the only problem is the bass is so strong that sometimes I can get a mild headache after listening to these too loud too long.

Blow Beats out of the water These headphones are top quality, durable, and sound amazing especially for the very low price. I use the Poweramp equalizer app for my phone, and it really makes these headphones deliver strong, and clear bass. Sound clarity it very clear, Excellent overall, and and I am very pleased with the way these perform. December 26, 2012
Superb sound, okay fit alright, i owned the sony mdr xb500 for 7 months now and i loved the punchy bass that they produce which are the reasons why i got the xb800s over the 700s. After listening for 3 days, the xb800s shines further than the 500s in overall sound thouhg at times the 500s do seem to have the punchier bass (only some times). These headphones are great, i love them so much but the only problem that i have is that after a long period of time they start to give me a head ache, literally.. The part where they sit on your head starts to get uncomfortable and the ear cups sit on your head in weird angle. If you adjust this will solve the problem but i wish that this problem didnt existed. All in all, they are a great buy, love them and on top of them they fold up! I recommend them to anyone who are a basshead but also wants clarity in their songs December 16, 2012
