    They are good headphones but over time the aux cord makes the audio cut out the right headphone

    The headband is not really adjustable. It’s just made supposedly in an all in one fashion, but my head was just too big for it for it to go all the way over my ears.

    For the price point it’s pretty amazing. At least for me it was more than I had expected. Not going to knock your socks off by any means but it’s priced really well in my none audiophile opinion. I think the average consumer would be pleased.

    This headset is great especially if you’re going to travel. I don’t want to say it’s the headset but in some party’s my friends say I get static feedback. But they may be from the controller headphone jack port.
