This headset is spectacular! I know it has a heavy price tag, but I can honestly say that it is worth every penny you pay for it. It is incredibly comfortable to wear, with padding all around ear and also on the bridge that goes over your head. The adjustable rails that hold the headphones in place is sturdy and does not wear out, which will allow for extended use. The mic boom that comes down from the left side rotates 270 degrees, BUT it is not flexible, so that may be irritating for some, but I don't mind so much. The wire connecting from headset to computer is so long! I would say that the wire is approx. 10 feet long. I can freely move around my room, and into the bathroom :) and still have slack in the wire. The wire is also cased with fabric which provides better protection than a plastic casing. Trust me, this headset has already withstood the chewing of a puppy and the wires are still protected! It does have volume control that has a clip on it and it also has a quick Mic: On/Off

These ear phones was the best and I am usually rough with ear phones, I mean I slammed these era phones in the car door, drop them in water and everything but they worked just fine, unfortunately I broke them by stepping on them but I do not mind buying them again because it is worth it.

First off.. If you cant afford 299.99 for these you should`nt be buying them. But these are the BEST that money can buy for this price range and comparative products (Bose OTEar, etc) While Bass Heavy for rap and rock, it even makes Beethoven pleasant to listen to.. I listen to R&B and Hip Hop mostly, and this is what Beats were made for. When in use with my Zune HD the music is ridiculously flawless... the ear muffs on these cans are really comfortable, and dont get all sweaty. Yes it needs batteries, yes they are 300.00, yes they get all smudgy with fingerprints. Do you Love music??? Then these are the standard for me from now on....Go cop these

This is great to have while on a long flight! Put them on while studying or working so no one can bother you. I've had them for a few months and they work just like they did when I first got them.

I bought these ear buds to monitor sound input from specialized microphones for my camcorder, but I'm also using them with my computer. Sound quality is very comparable to a high-end headset I've been using for the same purposes... maybe even better. I can pick up sound details in both the high and low freq range you can't hear on our home theater sound system. The base is very strong for an ear bud -- not too strong. The sound quality is so excellent I can hardly see spending any more. I also rate the comfort very high, with the understanding that for any given pair of ears, a given ear bud configuration will seat only so soundly for exercise (retention), or lightly, for comfort at a desk for instance. The diameter of these buds is quite large. When I took them out of the package, I first wondered how they were going to (possibly) seat in my ears. One thing a user needs to understand is that the speaker portion of these buds needs to face forward. In other words, there's a left and a

I paid a ridiculous amount of money for these headphones, I was satisfied for a few months, until the mic stopped working, and I can't find anything wrong with it when I take it apart.

If you are looking for a headset that has great sound quality -- people on the other end can hear you clearly and you can hear them -- then this is NOT the headset for you.
The headset looks nice, fits well, and the earpieces provide decent (not exceptional) sound from your computer. However, the microphone is next to worthless. I am a daily user of my headset -- not for telemarketing, but for web conferences with colleagues around the world. I was looking to switch to something light and comfortable, but it had to have the sound quality to allow my conversations to be effective. This headset did not pass the test.
And if you are wondering, yes - I did check all possible connections, OS and other software settings, etc. Its not the computer or the software - it is this headset.

Purchased these headphones to transcribe voice recordings. Very reasonable price, comfortable to wear for long periods of time, fairly good at canceling outside noise. I would not recommend these headphones for listening to music.

I bought these from Best Buy in August '09 to replaced the earbuds that came with the iPod Touch (8GB). After it has been "broken-in" the sounds are well balanced. The highs, mids and the lows all complement each other. Speaking of lows, for an in-ear phones I was astonished. It's not muddied/boomy.
These headphones are not noise-isolating. However, they do block a majority of the sounds when you're listening to music. Altec Lansing did include extra earbuds for different size ears. The pre-installed earbuds fit my ears perfectly. They are very comfortable to wear for hours. My only complaint is the cord. It's made out of cloth for durability. But it makes too much noise when it rubs against your clothes. Which can be annoying at times.

I have been through many difference kinds of earbuds in search of the perfect pair. I have tried several different Shure models. Went up to this one because it was supposed to be the ultimate. When I first listened to them, I was very disappointed. Bass is supposed to be really good on these, its no better than the lesser Shure models. In general, I have a hard time telling the difference between the SE530 and the the couple of models lower down the shure product line. The sound good but NOWHERE near $500 worth of good. A friend of mine let me try a $50 pair of skullcandy earbuds, they had better base and almost sounded as good in the mid and high range. I say, don't buy these they are not worth the money. Yes, I tried equalizer settings, have had them long enough for 'break in" ,etc. I did call Shure as I thought maybe mine were defective, and they said "yeah, you are not going to get great bass out of these". Very disappointing. I think some people feel compelled to rave about these after

Iphone users listen up. I have now converted my third pair of these to work with the iphone headset, which in my opinion is a total play for apple to get folks to spend more money. Here is what you do. Buy these sony headphones, pull the rubber outer casing off the headset and wrap that same rubber casing around the iphone headset earbuds. Use a micro small drop of super glue to keep them in place and you are done. Now your earbuds for the iphone will stay in your ears.
Still great headphones out of the box in my opinion.

I am someone who exercises while listening to music so i need headphones where I can hear what is going on around me (like cars or other people) for my safety. When i exercise these stay on all the time, sometimes i forget that i even have them on. I love these and I don't use any other headphones!

I went into this headphone purchase with a lot of reviews read about them. Perhaps if I hadn't read so many, I wouldn't have thought of it as finding some sort of Holy Grail of portable headphones, and I think that's where I'm most disappointed. These headphones are not, in fact, some sort of holy artifact, quested for by a gallant league of knights. They are, in fact, headphones. While we're on the subject of these headphones, I might as well talk about them. They produce noise. Some might say they do so better than most... I do notice some difference. You can definitely hear the lower end coming through more clearly in the mix. However, I've found that the bass does not have enough power to really "thump" which is something I would have liked. You'll get your low end, and it will be more audible, but if you were planning on using these to power your new nightclub, or to mix the low end in your new studio, I would recommend against it (and probably laugh at you behind your back). Besides

I own a pair. The sound stage is awesome. I can hear every detail. I don't use them except when secluded as not to damage them. Paid too much to risk damage. The only thing they lack is the deep accruate bass. If they had the deep bass they would definitly be the best. No matter how many times I changed the sleeves they would not create that accurate deep bass. That's the only thing they lack. Other than that I would recommend them.

These headphones look cool but they are very uncomfortable, after about 30 minutes my ears were sore and i had a headache because they are so tight and I dont' have a fat head. The sound quality is terrible, I took mine back.

I’ve purchased the same headphones (ink’d) in the past and bought them again just thinking it was something I did to break them. But now I am sure that they are just not durable. They are working fine for the first month, but then suddenly they just they will stop working (e.g.) one side will block out, it will get staticy or only play vocals, etc. Both times I have purchased them, around the same time (a month) they will just break down on me. If you plan on only using them for a short period, go ahead, if you expect them to last, don’t even bother.

I bought this after I look people's review rating. This one is actually what I want. Love its quality, whatever sound and headphone. When you hold the headphone, it is very steady. Not like going to fall off anytime. ^_____________^

Well, I have been a loyal Skullcandy consumer, and this was my fourth set. I had always bought the ear buds from them and was very impressed with their preformance, so I was wanting something for just around the house and again i was impressed! About 10 months of ownership and the "extension cable" went out, the phones still work with out it, however it is very hard to really do anything on my iPhone without the cord, So I contacted Skullcandy directly and they replaced the cord!! Just waiting for it in the mail, so they will continue to have my business.
