  1. Happy Reader!

    Very good headphones for the price.For the price these are excellent headphones and a worthy candidate for “daily driver.” For me, these are computer/desk headphones. That is my use and that is probably how you should plan on using them as well. The cushions are very soft but the fit itself is on the firm side. Because the cushions are soft, they are nice and comfortable. Because the cushions are soft I’d be hesitant about getting too much sweat in them at the gym. They won’t fall off– that’s not the issue– but I’m guessing you don’t want to get the cushions wet. Are they durable? They sit at my desk. I thought about stuffing them in a “getting too full” backpack for a flight recently and I declined to do so. If you are really going to be putting them into very full bags maybe see if you can handle a pair in the store before making a decision. On the desk? As long as you aren’t yanking these things off you should be fine.Sound review? This is hard because there is so much that goes into it. I’ll give it a shot. I can’t talk about leakage because I’m not usually around people when these are on. There is no noise cancelling but the fit and the pads do an okay job of getting rid of a lot of background noise. These replaced some Koss Porta-Pros and some old Sol headphones as my main laptop headphones. (That’s where I do most of my work.) So yes, I’m running off a laptop. No fancy power sources. They can get nice and loud and not bring in any distortion. That’s good. I guess these are probably “somewhat warm” sounding headphones. I listen to some vaporwave and a lot of metal (black/thrash and such) so I think I cover the need to hear all levels and ranges of sound and don’t have a need to focus on one aspect over the other but I guess the elephant in the room is always bass? It handles bass pretty well. It isn’t an overly aggressive bass sound but you can hear it nicely and distinctly. There is some punch to the bass but, to be sure, it isn’t at the level of beats headphones (and I like beats, but they are also a lot more money). Listening to some of the raw metal recordings, the bass is nice and it handles the distortion and rawness of metal tracks very well. So, the bass is good to the extent that the headphones generally maintain a consistent and clear sound-profile. And there is clearly more bass than more clear or neutral sounding headphones. It isn’t necessarily a bass heavy headphone but it is definitely bass capable. I can make the volume louder or softer without introducing any more distortion and I don’t have to listen to it loudly to “hear” the music.These are very good headphones for the price. The four stars is because the headphone market is brutal and these are four star headphones, especially for the price. They are not magic value headphones that you would/could pay +$150 for, or something like that. That is, in my mind, going in to five star territory. For the price you will probably pay for these on this site, you are getting a really great pair of daily drivers and they are easy to recommend. I’m considering getting the (a) blue-tooth version of these.

    I’m impressed!I am impressed with the bass sound. The sound is very clear, loud and does not hurt the ear. I had my left eardrum broken 20 years ago and since then it is very sensitive to certain sounds. I didn’t have that irritation I used to feel with other headphones I had. I’m really happy and very surprised. My daughter suggested this brand and I’m glad I listened to her 😊

    Totally worth the buy!Man I had to grab these because skullcandy never disappoints with their headphones and their sound quality, these are more affordable then some of the other versions of their better quality ones but still has that amazing skullcandy quality that you would have if you were to purchase one of their more expensive headphones! I say give them a try if you need something quick easy and cheap but excellent quality! I used them for days for gaming and it was great

    nice inexpensive headphonesI like Skullcandy products and have two pair of their headphones. These are the very inexpensive ones, and they’re a decent pair of $20 headphones. At the end of the day though, I like my $15 JLabs better.

    Best over-the-ear headphones I’ve had in a whileI didn’t realize it has a pause button on the right side when I bought them. It’s really useful when you have your phone in your pocket and need to turn the music off fast.

    Very comfortableMy daughter loves these. She says they are super comfortable and have a great sound. She definitely can not hear me talking to her when she has them on and she has music playing.

    Not sure of they are worth itThe headphones were not easily connected to my son’s equipments. But, once we figured it out, they work perfectly. I’m not sure yet if they are worth it.

  8. Diana Salvador

    ComfortableGreat sound. Good noise cancelation. 👏 I reorderd because my last ones broke.

  9. Duane -RSJ

    Not sold in your local stores ..Lived way these sound and these wired economy headphones are not at wallet-mart , ect . Wired works great with my applications , guitar processor, mixer boards, PC headphones . You can’t do that with blu tooth types. Skull candy has actual bass and good time .
