" ... Sounds like something techies made up so they have something to argue about. ... "
" ... Even though Audio Technicas are typically pretty expensive, they are of excellent quality. ... "
" ... Decent build and sound quality ... "
" ... I mostly use them to play my digital piano and the sound quality is fantastic. ... "
" ... They look and sound great. ... "
" ... Perfect for hearing music from your phone or MP3 player ... "
" ... I just got them today and I already here things I never heard before on some of my favorite songs! ... "
" ... I had recently acquired a 20 year old Sony WM-FS399 Sports Walkman, which had Mega Bass and Dolby, so it sounded realllllly good for a cassette player (rest in piece it broke yesterday, thank god for refunds) so I figured I mind as well get a good pair of headphones for my HiFi setup and regular music listening. ... The price for the refurbished is unbeatable, and the sound quality is over the top. ... Audio-Techinca seems like it will hold King of the Hill for its headphones. ... "

" ... Extremely comfortable and blocks out most noise. ... "
" ... Unbelievably, they work well with my out-the-ear hearing aids, completely covering them without any feedback. ... "
" ... I work at my desk for long hours and need some good comfy cans to drown out background noise and stay focused. ... I've torn through some Sony cans, Bluedio cans, Logitech cans, and they all sounded good but these are above and beyond in sound quality, comfort, and build quality. ... "
" ... Ear cups slightly larger than the Sonys, tho' still a tiny bit small for me (I must have big ears). ... However, they are still comfortable. ... "
" ... A great pair of headphones, with a comfortable fit over the ears. ... "
" ... Sound is crisp, clear and potent, extremely comfortable on my awful large head and this is very rare, not tight on my ears at all. ... "
" ... These are one of the most comfortable headphones to wear for extended periods of time. ... "
" ... There's large sound stage and balanced voice to my ears. ... Substantial feel without being too heavy. ... "

" ... Even better price. ... "
" ... Not a scratch, still in the bag, and at a very reasonable price. ... "
" ... For that price, quality and performance is exceptional. ... "
" ... But I have yet to find them in the under $50 price range. ... "
" ... I've paid more money for headphones that satisfied me half as much as these did. ... They're worth more than the money asked for them, without a shadow of a doubt. ... "
" ... I bought them knowing I had just saved a good 20 dollars buying the refurbished type of these headphones. ... "
" ... Definitely a good headset for the price. ... "
" ... These are a great value. ... "
