These headphones are great in every way but one - the cord is waaaay too short! OMG, would it be so much to add another foot?!

Comfort: - The clips that rest on top of the ear can pinch slightly. (The plastic is not the most comfortable.) + After 4 hours of continuous use they are not too uncomfortable and no excessive heat/good airflow. * While they weigh a bit more than I had hoped, they balance well on my ears and only very rarely require adjustment. Sound Quality: The sound improves as the volume increases. The spacial feeling (surround) of the phones at large volumes sounds very nice and open. + The treble and mid balance is very nice. - Bass is practically non-existent, which is expected due to the size of the phones. Why four stars for an average set?: The price. You get a bit more than your money's worth. These and the Sony MDR-V150 Monitor Series Headphones with Reversible Earcups (for home use) & JVC HAFX33A Marshmallow In-Ear Stereo Headphones (Blue) (for portability and noisy areas) are probably my favorite budget phones. The Sennheiser PMX60 are perfect for work environments where you get up from your desk often for various projects. They are very easy and comfortable to slip on or off.

I bought these to replace a very identical neck-wrap around pair made by Sony. Bad decision. Yes, the highs or treble is extremely audible, but that is all you get. The bass compared to the Sony is weak. I think it is caused because the design of the neck band, though comfortable, allows the bottom sound to leak out thus resulting in only midranges and highs. Way too overpriced. The sound of these equals a $10 set. Very diappointed. I thought these would be an improvement over my Sony's which just needed replacement foam headphone covers, but they are not. I guess I learned my lesson. I'm going back to my Sony's and replacing the covers.
