J. Zone: I bought these after my Sennheiser HD202 gave up. I immediately replaced the cushions with more comfortable ones and now these things are my pride and joy. Great buy, no complaints aside from stock uncomfortable ear cushions. Can be tricky replacing cushions not recommended unless handy at that kind of stuff. Sound is fantastic, full, great bass and sound is never muddy with good range.

KW: I got these for my son a couple months ago. He has been rough on past earbud sets, so I thought I'd get him some of these. They have a thicker more durable cord and headphones instead of the earbuds. They have worked well, sound great, been durable, and he loves them. Received on time and got a great deal from Amazon.

-Little to no seal around the ears.

Overview
No complaints here. For $15, you can't go wrong with these headphones. American Audio was generous enough to include various accessories including a carrying pouch, and 2 quarter inch adapters. These headphones sound very decent; but are a bit hard to drive (64 ohms). The sound signature is V shaped, with very accentuated bass and high treble, as with most "dj" labeled headphones. I feel that the mids are a bit muddy.
The build quality is quite good for the price, with plastic material that feel durable enough for everyday use. However, it is a bit stiff feeling at the joints. The ear-cups get sweaty and uncomfortable over time, as expected with the material used. The earcups don't give much seal on the ears (at least for me). This is an important factor that causes it to lose some isolation.

Overall, these headphones are great temporary pair that gets the job done.
