Great light weigh headphones

bydreammaker182 Jan 16, 2007
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros light weight, comfortability, dynamic range and trebble
Cons short thin cord, lacks the bass of other headphones of this catagory.
Recommended it? Yes

These headphones are really lightweight and have a really good dynamic range. You will not miss any trebble tone with these headphones. The bass is a bit weak but the UR-40's make up for this with comfort and low noise inside or out of the earcups. The only thing that I would change about these... Read full review »

Great value headphones

Pros Lightweight, Comfortable
Cons Weak Bass
Recommended it? Yes

These Koss entry level headphones are great for everyday use. They are very light and provide decent sound.

Recommended it? Yes

With my day job office remodeling in favor of a more open environment, my ability to listen to a low volume shelf system was gone. Still, I do like to listen to music during breaks and when working on projects. So, I went to Best Buy looking for decent, comfortable headphones that would provide... Read full review »

The Sony MDRG42LP Headphones--A Walkman Classic But Are They The Best?

byspongebag7 Jun 13, 2006
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Nice, rich bass, lightweight, long cord, good looks, portable, durable
Cons Slightly uncomfortable, high end is a little muffled, beaks fast
Recommended it? No

After getting fed up with the speaker cord crawling out on both side of the speaker on my HS520 pair, and becoming extremely uncomfortable, I decided to ditch that pair for a different set. I looked at Wal-Mart and while they are very heavy in earbuds and old-school style headphones, they only had... Read full review »
