Very happy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You don't just hear music with these babies, but you experience it in a whole new way. I threw them on, sat back, closed my eyes, listened to songs that I've heard hundreds of times, and noticed things in each one that I've never heard before! I even find myself listening to music that I would have never listened to before, just because it all should so amazing in these things. I've had decent pairs in the past, but it's mind-blowing how big of a difference a quality set of headphones makes. Then, I booted up my PC, and was able to hear both it and my phone at the same time. Let me tell you, games on these sound almost too good. A character talk behind me, and I almost turned around in real life thinking they were there. And the noise cancelling... My wife, daughter, and son we're all screaming at me, and I didn't hear them at all! Thank you Best Buy and Sony for saving my sanity.

Too sensitive
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the Headphones and thought they were cute but i did not like the fact that I could not wear them to the gym because they can’t get wet and because they were so sensitive on the outside I couldn’t lay in my bed with them! However the sound quality was amazing and they were pretty comfortable!

AMAZING SOUND AND NOISE CANCELLATION!!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife suffers from extreme over stimulation from sounds. THIS PRODUCT HAS CHANGED HER WHOLE WORK DAY, in the best way possible! If she has these on and I come home from work, she has no clue I am home. I can bang doors/drawers and she isn't bothered. I tried these on and it basically shut out the world. WOULD RECOMMEND HIGHLY!!!!!
