The wire is extra long so i can walk around the room without the headphones flying off my head, but when they do because i step on the wire by mistake they don't break like the other ones do. Very rugged and that's mostly what i care about. Could be a little tighter fit to keep out exterior noise. That's my only complaint.

These are phones are pretty good in my opinon. For the price i would say they are pretty hard to beat. Decent bass, and great mids and highs. i have a pair of ibeats that came free with my phone and although the JVC's dont have as much bass, their highs sound better and are much clearer. These are also very comfortable.

I do want to point out that these are rated at 70 ohms, which means they wont get as loud as some other headphones when used with an mp3 player or ipod. I usually use them with my laptop that has beats audio so they sound great!

I also want to say one more thing. The cord is LONG. But not really a serious issue for me. For the price i would definatly recommend these
