Are these durable? I'm not going to lie, this headphone looks kinda ugly and plastic. However, these seem like the headphones that best suit me.

They are durable. I work in radio and bought these because they sound great. However, if you plan to wear them for long periods, they do get uncomfortable across the top.

I really like these headphones for their great sound quality. That being said I have some points that could be good or bad, depending on what you're looking for. The chord to the headphones is pretty long, and doesn't seem too durable, so you have to take care of it, but this is true with any wired headphones. The only other thing is they don't cover the ear completely, so they don't block out sound. However, that's not really a problem with me, as the sound quality is so crisp you won't want to listen in any situation other than silence. They're more affordable than other high quality headphones, are very loud, and have great highs and bass. Great great model I really like these headphones for their great sound quality.

The headphones are good. I heard good things about them, but they kind of didn't meet my expectations. The bass could be better and I think it would be hard to sleep with them in, mine keeps slipping out when I'm just walking around. You might have better bass if you went for the over the ear headphones. Hope this helps!

Yes very good sound and bass. They will definitely last you a while too. They are very flexible and durable as well.

These cables are definitely not think. If you take care of them they will last pretty long i believe.I do not think that you can get better sounding in ear headphones for that price, I am still blown away by their performance.

Personally I rank them a bit higher, others will say these don't have enough bass (I would strongly disagree) however to be honest I haven't used these in ~9months, I gave them to my fiance and bought some ATH-A900X's which are the same driver but with aluminium housing and sound a few notches above both. Both are fantastic headphones, but the M50's have a much flatter soundstage compared to the ATH-A700X's, I would also say that they are not as comfortable. Slightly more portable.

Have had no problems at all with the build of these headphones since I purchased them 4 or 5 months ago. Seem like they will last a long time. Depends on what you'll use them for but best suited for hooking up to a/v receiver or a headphone amp for at home use.

Hello Mark, I like to use these working out or doing outdoor work. They have decent bass. I like think chunky bass, and these provided good quality. My only gripe is that headphones ( after a while ) stop working. I have tried Beats by Dre ear buds and they provide better base. The price is key factor in that equation. If you need them for travel, or around the house, either Bose or Beats (Over the Ear) are the best ones on the market. But for outdoor needs, these are the right price.

not really, they're almost as clear as my over the ear headphones. surprisingly all the pairs I ordered still work too. I'm pretty hard on headphones.they're ten times better than generic apple headphones. I think I want to order some more of these when the ones I have wear out.

My experience is that they're pretty good for the type of headphone they are: quite snug for this style. I find them too bulky and hot to consider ideal during a workout. They don't seem like they're designed to deal with sweat, etc., so the getting them wet with sweat kind of grosses me out too. For normal use I don't consider them too bulky or hot, but to workout I think I prefer an earbud style over these.

Yes and yes. I have been using the same pair for my workouts for about 2 years now without any damage. They work just as well as the first day I bought them. I'd give them a 10 in terms of durability, a 10 for their functionality, and a 6.5-7.0 for sound quality (they are for casual listening, not studio monitors).

I can not say personally. I bought these as a Christmas gift for my brother. He has always been really rough on headphones and so far these have been holding up pretty good, so I can say they are durable. In regards to the sound quality, my brother says that it's great and that he is very happy with the bass and sound quality they put out.

I've had mine since last summer and they're still going strong. I use them about 10 hours a week and they show no signs of wear and tear. The audio quality isn't as good as the 2013 Beats Mixr or studio headphones but the Sol's are physically strong, maybe even stronger than the Beats.

I don't use them because they don't sound good, so I don't know if they are durable. For noise-reducing earbuds, I would recommend buying Panasonic RP-HC55-S Noise-Cancelling Earbud Headphones instead.

This is a tough question to answer. I feel like, in general, they are more durable than the classic style of earbuds with a rounded cable, but I don't have any physical proof of this. I know that the older generation of these headphones that I owned held up to abuse pretty well; I generally just tossed them in my pocket and they still lasted over a year. That being said, they aren't going to be as durable as the ear buds marketed for sports/activity. I think overall they are well constructed and they have been kept almost exclusively waded up in my pocket for a couple months without visible wear. This is a tough question to answer.

Hey bud, so the earphones are originally and honestly are really amazing. I lost mine after 2 weeks. Very clumsy like that. But sorry, won't be able to answer warranty questions. But earphones are totally worth it. If you have the $$$ ofcourse!

They are really good. The bass isn't naturally amplified, if you mess with the EQ, it responds to that really well. Not too rattly or anything. (from my son who got the headphones for a gift and knows way more about this stuff than I do.)
