AMAZING SOUND!!!!!

bysube5186 Feb 6, 2005

13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls

Pros Superb Sound, very lightweight, comfortable fit, reasonable price

Cons Carrying case could be larger

Recommended it? Yes

If you want your DAP or CD player to reach its full potential, you need to upgrade your headphones. The included headphones/earbuds that come with most players are OK, but they usually don't bring out the best quality your audio player is capable of. I would highly recommend the Sony MDR-EX71SLs...

Pros Excellent Sound for the money Don't fall out of your ears Robust cables and...

Cons Not *perfect* (but still vgood). Check the phones before leaving the store.

Recommended it? Yes

These headphones produce excellent value for money. For most people these are the perfect trade off of cost vs sound quality.

Good value - but avoid if your head is very large

byAndyman May 15, 2009

21 Helpfuls 22 Helpfuls

Pros Comfortable, good sound quality, effective noise cancelling, good value.

Cons May not be large enough for big heads. Fussy cable a pain in the butt.

Recommended it? Yes

I found these headphones to be an excellent value with good sound quality, decent noise suppression, comfortable ergonomics, and a friendly price. They make a nice seal on your head when you wear them, but they remain comfortable.

Sound quality is quite nice. I'm not one of those... Read full review »

Pros Beautiful, great-sounding alternative to Bose, for about one third the price.

Cons Earcups a bit on the snug side; external sound leakage.

Recommended it? Yes

HOW/WHY I FOUND THE AUDIO-TECHNICA ATH-ANC7:

Once upon a time, my wife bought me a set of Bose Quiet Comfort 2 headphones as a Christmas gift. They were, without a doubt, the finest headphones I've ever owned. They weren't made of the strongest stuff (after about 2 years of very light... Read full review »
