is the sound "tight"?

Yes, it also had surprising bass response. I have them on a Hifonics Brutus running at 2 ohms on the rear deck of my Jag and they sound great !

I can't really say or not. I believe my radio is not the caliber it should so the sound is not like I would prefer. My plans are to purchase a better radio however, still restoring mustang so haven't gotten back to the radio yet.

I installed theese speakers in a Astro cargo van, I dont listen very high volume, so they are ok for me. If you are looking for higher levels you should look for other kind of speakers.

I'm not sure what you mean by tight. They are good speakers for the back of my little convertible to listen to the radio-there is a lot of wind noise but they play well at higher volume without distortion. They are not concert hall speakers but now I can hear the radio just fine. They are good for my application, compact, good full sound. I have them velcroed to the carpet on the ledge behind the seats, they have worked perfectly since new.

You might have to adjust the volume. Otherwise I have had no problems with it.

Yes, there's some sound leakage. If you're concerned about this, you may want an over the ear headset rather than an on your ear headset as this one is.

I think so and it's one of the features I really like about the Conairs. I've found some other brands I've used to be so loud they were uncomfortable to use. I've found these to be relatively quiet though, no issues on the sound.

No. I hear clear sounds, no loose and heavy rumbling. It has a deep base that I really like.

Yes. I found they were a bit tight at first, which made longer listening sessions uncomfortable after a while, but they seemed to relax a bit after enough use.

I haven't noticed loss of volume or quality. If there is any it must be very, very small.

Honestly, I don't think so. The sound is cushioned well. Then you also have volume control. I have noticed the design of the adjustable head does slacken after time. Then again, so do they all.

No the sound is low and very quick. Im a light sleeper but it never bother me. I sometimes but on my kitchen top. I'm very happy with it.

I have not had a problem with the sound. The sound is adjustable and I keep it on the nightstand - which is close to my head

I like the sound of these, but they are a very tight fit. After 30 minutes, I have to pull them away from my head to let my ears breath a little. On the comfort scale you mentioned, I'd put them at 6 or 7. In other words, not unbearable, but headphones this expensive should be more comfortable than these. I'm already looking for something else (Sennheiser probably)

Mine isn't whipser-quiet as the other reviewer said, though its not loud either. Its probably about what you would expect it to sound like.

Not on ours. The sound is clear and volume is appropriate. Something isn't right!
1806770
It does require a little more pressure but you get used to it. I will check about the volume. It's easy to remove from the case and replace again.

My experience is that the noise is not normal. I haven't had any issues with the speaker at all.

Well...difficult to tell. I have long ears and I found that even if the cups are big enough to accommodate them, it still feels tight. I am a gamer too, and other players say they can hear me nice and clear. The sound is nice, but my expectations that I would be able to hear from where a shot came or the direction of approaching footsteps have gone unfulfilled. I am not blaming the product, though, but my lack of a spiffy sound card (Realtek that comes with most laptops, is too basic for gamers). I think that the price and quality of the product are right, but I am not doing somersaults over it... :) Hope this helps... Well...difficult to tell.

I have the same issue. I was hesitant to get these but they were highly recommended from a friend so I took a shot in the dark and got them. I'm happy to report that this thing has some pretty nice grip. The downside is it's tight enough that it may cause some ear irritation after extensive use but beyond that this is one of the best purchases I've made.
