Customer Testimonial

I needed an iPod adapter for an old Pioneer Deck. In this age of rapidly changing hardware, it was very pleasing to find the perfect item I needed.

Thank you for the service. Arrived in just a couple of days!

I bought these for my wife for Xmass 2009. She loved them and used them a lot. They finally gave out after 1.5 years. The stereo output quit. All you could hear while watching a movie was the background noises and not the characters talking.



That being said Sony told me that they were out of warentee but did offer to replace them with referbs.



My wife likes them so much she said she would not want to try another brand or type. So, I will be bying her some new replacements.



She said they are comforatable and do the job just fine. Could have been worse.... Could have spent $300 on another brand.

These headphones do the job and exceed my expectations. Insane bass that you can hear that subwoofers can't produce. My friend would be talking and pointing gestures at me and I would not know what the language is. Probably the best headphones and doesn't even weigh a pound it feels like. 10 out of 10. There is no way a person can get disappointed from this high definition headphones. The only thing you have to worry about is changing the battery when needed. Usually if you constantly use the headphones, it takes about 3 days to drain the battery. Definitely recommend and buy these headphones. Adjustable to any head.
