Pros Good sound quality, very portable
Cons Very uncomfortable, can't wear for long periods of time
Recommended it? No

I need to start with a small preface, I love sound, I'm obsessed with it, and I listen to sound all day and all night on all different speakers and TV's and car systems. Due to my audiophile nature it is very possible there are things that would bother me in a set of speakers that most people... Read full review »

Pros good audio quality, foldable, aspecially handy for DJ's
Cons Connection cord has more weight than average headphone

PROS:

The most important advantage is the spiral, telephone-alike cable wich solves the problem of the (long) cord getting stuck under your chair, behind a... Read full review »

Pros Compact, comfortable, very good, detailed sound.
Cons High price, Replacement sleeves and wax guards are costly, maybe not enough bass
Recommended it? Yes

Intro - I seem to have had a lifelong love affair with portable audio. As I noted in my earlier review of the Sandisk Sansa E 260 ( http://www.epinions.com/content_370631151236 ), I was into portable audio before iPod was ever a strange look on Steve Jobs' face as he was shaving at 5 AM. I've had... Read full review »

I'm going to start this review by telling you that I love music…and I've always wanted to take my music with me. I was one of the first in my neighborhood to own a cassette player in the early 70s…I worked up and through the Walkmans and Discmans (Walkmen? Discmen?) . They were ultimately... Read full review »
