This lasted me only 2 years which is unfortunate because paying $150, I expected more out of it. The sound is great but it is cheaply made in my opinion. Just buy skull candy.

So far I love the sound and comfort these provide. They are not harsh on my ears (physically) and the play/stop button is a nice convenience. However, the hinges that connect the ears to the headband is undoubtedly flimsy. I live a rugged life and can see that this hinge is the weakest point in the construction.
In fact the day I received these my friend showed me his and they had broken in less than 4 months in the exact location of the hinges. Additionally, the lapel clip that holds the play/stop button (and I assume that is a microphone hole) is too tight and not easily adjustable with its rigid metal material.

Within two days of buying this headset for in-home use with Skype the earpiece broke off and I was unable to fix it. The headset provides excellent sound and the microphone is very clear. The quality of the product is VERY cheap and it is quite flimsy - not what I expect from Plantronics (I have a mobile phone headset and office cordless headset from them already and their quality is exceptional).

These headphones get one star for the sound - It wasn't the absolute best I've ever heard but it was pretty good. If you are looking for bass, these are not the ones you want. But the mid and treble sound pretty clear and the noise cancellation is pretty good too. The second start comes from the good idea that these are adjustable, foldable to be compact, and the earphones have great, comfortable padding.

So why not the full 5 stars? Because they broke in less than 20-25 uses. I give the range because I wasn't counting how many times I wore these because I didn't think I'd have to. I thought these would be a lifetime purchase. But nope, I would definitely say I only wore them 20-25 times and they broke - in multiple places.

How'd they brake, you ask? It was due to the cheap, fragile plastic these headphones are made of. Well, I should be specific, the headband portion is a cheap, fragile casing made of cheap, fragile plastic. Within the casing are lightweight metal pieces on both sides - which you see when you adjust the headphones to be bigger.

So basically, although the bands were adjustable, the plastic wasn't very malleable or sturdy. Over time, the headband cracked in multiple places in attempts to fit over my head - and my hair. But, let's be real, hair can be flattened down and I certainly could do that to mine! So that shouldn't have wore down my headphones by any means if they were made well.

Now I will be honest - I have an afro so that makes my head a little bigger than normal. But we'e not talking some Leela James afro - feel free to Google it since I can't create a hyperlink.

I'm talking about the size of Toph Beifong afro - feel free to Google it since I can't create a hyperlink. - Ok i know her hair isn't an afro but that is the kind of volume to my hair we are talking about.

Before, it was a small plastic piece that broke off on one side, and then another piece broke off the other. Eventually, a piece on the top of the headband that connected the right side to the whole headphone completely broke off. So my headphones suddenly became two separate pieces and the decision came to throw them in the trash.

So if you have a smaller head with no fro, maybe these are for you. But be warned, the plastic is cheap. My dad has a pair of  Panasonic RP-HC70 headphones that were made better - I can wear them over my head with no cracks or fear of fragility. I would recommend those except they are discontinued by the manufaturer (though they are sold here on Amazon by independent sellers) and the sound isn't as great.

Happy hunting finding the right pair of headphones for you. Hope this review was helpful.

These speakers have two great qualities: cheap, portable.  I plug these into my monitor USB ports, and it's so easy to use, which is what I wanted because the office setup I have has my monitor located pretty far away from the tower.  So I don't have to use extension cables or expensive equipment to get some sound working.

Having said that, there really is nothing else that's great about these.  The sound quality is pitiful to me.  There is a lot of feedback/rattling noise going on.  But again, you get what you pay for, just be warned.  You are buying cheap and portable speakers that will give you audible insight into your computing.  Nothing else.  That's why I gave it even 3 stars, because they're so cheap and portable.

It is really cheap for the quality you get. I love how it sounds and that you can plug it to an amplifier!

Ah man, I liked the sound but I think I got a defective one due to the fact it fell apart.

These deteriorate fairly quickly, because everything is made of some kind of plastic + very thin pleather, except the metal parts showing in the image.

The sound is great, but they're not well-made.

I really enjoyed these headphones in terms of sound quality and comfort.  They even fold up nicely to fit in your pocket.  Unfortunately, they are made of an exceptionally cheap plastic and broke within 6 weeks.  I can't figure out how to get a refund, so I kind of feel like I paid $50 to rent cool headphones for a month and a half.

They sound great, but the build quality is terrible.  I went through three pairs and each only lasted a month before the ear bud housing broke apart.  Also, when I contacted their customer service about a replacement as they offer a warranty, I was told no problem, a replacement order is being placed with Amazon and I would receive tracking information shortly.  Well it has been over 4 months and I never heard another peep.  The sound is awesome, the craftsmanship is garbage.

It works and sounds just great but I find myself wishing I had bought a Walkman or something more premium. It just looks and feels very very cheap. If that doesn't bother you, than this is absolutely worth it.

The quality of sound of the headphones is the best i've ever gotten from in ear headphones. My complaint is the durability because i bought theese headphones expecting good or at least decent hardware quality from the price but after i got them one of the ear buds started flickering on and off to later die all together. The other complaint i had was that they didn't stay in my ears to well anyway because the non-tangle wire weight pulls them out of your ears. so to sum it up 5 stars on sound quality but a big disappointment with durability

I'm not an expert, but the quality of the sound is very good, with a lot of bass - I can clearly hear the bass on songs, as well as other instruments. They feel comfortable and it's nice to have the volume control on hands.

The problem is the "leather" on the inside part, the one with the speakers and that touches your ear. Feels cheap and thin, don't look like its gonna last long. Let's see after some weeks how its gonna be...

But it's a sony for 37 dollars, so I think its a good deal.

It works but its very cheaply made. On of the screws holding the thing together is all stripped out and the whole thing overall is very cheaply put together. I like what it does and the price tag but other than that its probably not something that will last over time or hold up if your going to be gigging... just a forewarning

The package arrived on time and was about as I had expected reading other interviews.  The case of the Vox AC30 is cheaply formed, which is a shame considering that this device is convenient for just playing around with headphones. It would not take much additional cost by Vox to beef up the case construction and the controls, which they would pass on to the consumers, but two or three dollars would go very far in high-impact plastic and some better quality pots (controls).  The sound is okay, and I am good with it since this device is for me to play around with a few licks on a lazy afternoon on the back porch, or some place I cannot access my systems and don't want to drag even a small amp around (which will have only marginal sound anyway).

First of all, the sound quality is really good.  Sometimes headphones can slightly deteriorate the sound quality, but I can hear every last note perfectly with these earbuds.
Unfortunately, I don't think these are worth the price.  The quality of the earphones is very cheap.  Mine have not broken yet, but I've only used them a couple of times.  They just feel like they are going to break apart, which makes me very hesitant to use them a lot.  The pieces just feel a little loose and wiggly.  With even the slightest amount of wear, they could come apart.  Good, high-quality earphones should feel sturdy and be able to handle a little wear.  These Brainwavz earphones just don't make the cut, which only reinforces the idea that you can't trust products that use a 'z' for the plural form.
My recommendation is to pass on these earphones.  Maybe mine are just slightly defective, but I don't think it's worth the risk.  If I'm going to buy earphones that break quickly, I would buy them from the dollar store so I don't waste a lot of money.

I received this product at a discount in exchange for my unbiased review.

These headphones have fantastic sound, and judging by the materials they are made from you would think that they are durable, but they aren't.  I've had these headphone for a while but about a month ago the sound disappeared in one ear. That is because the wires in the mic got messed up and now no sound comes out of the right ear-piece except for when you hold it an exact way.  I'm buying Radius Atomic bass' instead and I would recommend you do the same.
