    Best headphones I’ve ever used!! The battery last for weeks. If you only use for 1 hour a day, it’s really an awesome piece of equipment! Highly recommend

    Crisp highs and booming bass. If you aren't enjoying your favorite music on these; are you even listening to music?

    The only issue I had was with comfortably. Which I found them to be extremely uncomfortable. However, thats just me. To each their own, as I’m sure no two heads are the same. Try them on before you buy, that was my only mistake.

    If you are looking for a good pair of noise cancelling headphones, buy some a pair of Beats. If you want the best pair of noise cancelling buy Sony XM5's.
