Put the extra BOOM into your boom-tisk

by Action_Snark , Jan 13 '03
Pros: Good earmuffs, massive drivers, deep throbbing bass
Cons: Not for the audiophiles, uber-bass drowns all else out.
Well, I was in the market for some new headphones over christmas. The pair of bargain-basement generic 'phones I'd bought from K-Mart just wasn't cutting it for me. I was looking for a decent set of headphones that would have acceptable sound quality,...

1. Had clear, full,...

Get Your Gaming Headphones Here

by clburdette , Oct 20 '00
Pros: just about everything
Cons: slight discomfort after long periods of usage
When I bought my first 3d positional audio sound card for games, I was finding that my tiny computer speakers were inadequate. They distorted easily with the volumes I liked, and those volumes tended to disturb others in the household. So, I set out to...

Finally found a good pair.

by mackmunch , Dec 13 '00
Pros: Great sound, Comfortable, Cool looking
Cons: Kind of big, but they have to be.
These are the best headphones I have ever owned. I am one of those people that doesn't pay a lot for anything. So when it came to headphones I don't spend much on those either. I knew there had to be a pair out there that didn't cost 100's of...

Good Aiwa's, GOOD Aiwa's!

by hydraspine , Aug 30 '02
Pros: Good sound, deep bass, comfortable, long cord, external sound is blocked, affordable
Cons: Immense
Since purchasing this pair of headphones at a local Best Buy retail store, I have looked no further. Thats because not only are these headphones extremely affordable but they provide you with some really good stuff. These headphones can easily outperform...

I Can't Hear you..I have My Aiwa's on!

by spoalanm , Mar 18 '01
Pros: Decent (not great) sound. Outside noise blocked out.
Cons: Sound quality could be better. Big. Bulky.
If you're the kind of person who likes to trek through blizzards while listening to music, then these headphones are for you! These things fully cover your ears and keep them toasty warm.

Of course, if you happen to be sitting in your house...

Outstanding for Most

by RiPT , Dec 27 '00
Pros: Mute Button. High quality for average users.
Cons: Easy to break. Not for audiophiles.
These headphones are great headphones, however if your an audiophile, don't waste your time. These deliver great quality, along with great comfort for an average person.

These are mostly targeted at the everyday consumer. I personally use them...

Slam My eardrums and Pierce The Bridge of My Nose

by ravenecho , Dec 23 '01
Pros: Price, Clarity, Powerful, Great Range and Mute Button
Cons: Only a 10 foot cord
Well, these headphones can do that if you want them to. They, indeed, do have the power to achieve a sonic headache. But, at low volume levels, they are very accurate, too.

I have been reading opinions on many headphones over the past week....

Simply the best headphones Ive ever owned

by y2j9090 , Mar 22 '04
Pros: Tremendous sound quality, big ear cups, fits snug
Cons: Mute button in bad spot
I searched for headphones for a long time. Before I bought these, I had listened to about 10 different ones, ranging from expensive to dirt cheap. I took a gamble on these because I bought them online without trying them, and I hit the jackpot. I payed ...

MAJOR disappointment

by verolom , Feb 02 '03
Pros: Big comfi cups, long cord, good trebles
Cons: No bass, useless mute switch, cord comes out of the left cup
I have had HP-X311 for maybe 6 years now. Great fit, great bass, good mids and trebles. They were $34.99 at BestBuy, a great deal. So I decided to get the HP-X222 considering the good experience. They are $29.99 at BestBuy again.
First of, I did...

Good for the money but...

by gt40 , Dec 11 '03
Pros: Good value for the price. Comfortable.
Cons: Long cord. Lightweight. Boomy.
It seems that many of the reviews written here are from those using the headphones with their computer for gaming an the like. I've been using the HP-X222's to primarily listen to music from a variety of sources ranging from my Marantz home system to a ...

Good if you've never used quality headphones...

by skintigh , Sep 16 '03
Pros: Good range, good fit, better than probably any other headphone in the $20 price range.
Cons: A disappointment after reading such praising reviews, but I have been spoiled by "audiophile" headphones.
They are good compared to the throw-aways that come with your $30 cd player, but not that great compared to quality headphones. The sound is okay, not as bad as the free ones, but way too much midrange and treble. There is deep bass in there, which mean ...

These headphones rock

by daftunion , Mar 11 '01
Pros: Very good sound for an audio enthusiast, Mute button, fair price
Cons: Large but that is to be expected with these kinds of headphones
I bought these headphones as a compliment to my Aiwa NSX-DS11 surround system, and I'm happy that I did. They match my system very well, have great sound (except the high end sounds kind of fuzzy on certain types of music) and are a pretty good looking...
