Extremely comfortable, easy to pack, and look good. Sound quality is as good as you would expect from B&W. I use them on my laptop with audioquest dragonfly dac.

I am a fun of B&W and I must say that this little ones are amazing for its portability. Sound is great compared with other options at this price range. If you want to use them "on the go" you will not be disappointed and will enjoy excellent sound while out of home...

Best Sounding Headphones

These are by far the best sounding headphones. Super crisp sound!! These block out tons of ambient sounds. The Highs and the Lows are very clear providing great sound. Great for any music, movies and anything else.
You don't have the bass heaviness of the Beats. Don't get me wrong there is plenty of bass but it doesn't distort the sound like the Beats.
Zero White Noise- which is what the Bose uses in their noise canceling headphones, this is why you can listen to these longer without any headaches.
Only thing I did not rate as excellent was the comfort. I have a larger head and in the beginning they squeezed tight on my head. it took wearing them in to stretch them out a little. Now they fit perfect and the ear pads are super comfortable.
A must buy!

Background: I already own a 5.1 channel sound system from B&W that I used at home and I was looking for a headphone that would work with both MP3 music and Apple TV movies. The criteria for my selection was equal balance between the treble, mid-tones and bass without one overpowering the other.
I have tried different brands and all of them were either too bassy (Beats) or too much emphasis on trebles (Bose). So when I found out B&W made headphones, I thought why not?
Boy was I blown away by the sounds that came from these headphones. Neither sounds were overpowering and I could hear clearly the song lyrics but also enough bass to make my heart thump.
Caveats: These headphones do not come cheap and the fit is not perfect. But after several adjustments, I could come to a compromise.
Is it perfect? Close. Is it worth the money? My last headphones was 5 years old. So the $$$ depreciates over the next 5 years.
As with all things audio, what works for me may not work for someone else. I always recommend listening to find the right match.

These headphones really enhance any listening experience. Use these for air travel, walks and relaxing at home. They do however sit on your ears a little funny and you have to take a break from them after a period of time.

These headphones sound fantastic - better than Beats for sure. They are also super comfortable and they look great. The cord is long enough, but not too long (one of my peeves!) They seem a tad bit flimsy, but come with a great hard case to keep them safe while in your bag. I would definitely recommend these.

purchased these on clearance for about 50% + discount. several other models that are in same class/price. for the price I paid there is nothing else close. very nice clean sounding, good bass response. others complained about comfort; agreed to a point. after reasonable break-in period, the head frame seems to have stretched a bit, & are very comfortable. The quality of sound has just gotten more enjoyable!!

Really cool, nice craftsmanship, great sound, a little tight on my large head, case is a little hard to pack the product into each use. I also like them becuase you don't see too many...kinda rare. Overall - pretty good buy.

The sound quality when used with iphone is very good. Not so much when used with powered/pre-amp devices. Although sleek wearable design is very attractive, my similarly priced Beyerdynamic DT 770 STUDIO full-size headphones are miles away in terms of performance.
Over the head housing is not very comfortable either.

These headphones were recommended to me by a sales rep in the store who had purchased the headphones for himself.
I wanted something light and flexible with really good sound quality to use with my recent Galaxy Note Tablet purchase, for traveling.
Also recommended the Galaxy tablet to my older brother for his travels this fall. He loves it.
I REALLY LIKE THE PEOPLE at this store, even though I usually buy through Amazon, this Best Buy offers to match my online purchases. No brainer, I like instant gratification and the extended warranty trumps Amazon.

B+W makes some of the best speakers available and they managed to put the performance in a compact package. The sound is fantastic for the price. Also the design and engineering is impeccable. A great bonus is the remote and mic for your IPhone or iPod. The one drawback is the tightness of the band hurts my big ears after hours on the plane.

I would not have ordered these headphones if they had been tagged "ON EAR". THEY ARE ON_EAR! Short version is; I was in a hurry and wanted to try them because they were labeled over ear. Otherwise I think they are well designed and stylish. I really liked the sound quality. I would call them flat with no tinny sound at all. Good bass response. Not the blown-out bass of some others.

I got an opportunity to try these out before buying at an Apple Store. The quality dwarfed everything I have heard previous to them. I had to order them because this is an item that is only found at Best Buy Magnolia stores.
The sound is amazing. Highs are crisp and clear, mids are balanced, and lows are surprisingly well defined. The only headphones I have heard that sound any better are the Bowers and Wilkins P5s.
Comfort was the only issue I have had with these. For my ears, these become uncomfortable after 3-3.5h. I don't see this being an issue for most people though; I have quite a number of piercings that the ear cups placed pressure on.
Some might say that these are not within a reasonable price range, but (for the most part) you get what you pay for.

Bought these for my mom, who wanted something with amazing sound but also small like buds. Unfortunately the B&W buds did't fit her, so I got these instead., and she is pleased by their small profile and sound quality.
According to her they are extremely comfortable and not tight on the ears, as well.

I was looking for an extra set head phones for traveling, nice and compact, easy to transport, good sound, and built tough, but still prefer my sennheiser's for daily use, much better sound overall
