Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony MDR-V150 Monitor Series Headphones
Customer Review: great sound, great price
Summary: 5 Stars
It's amazing how tough it is to find a decent set of headphones that are comfortable to wear for long periods of time and deliver good sound. After purchasing a few different sets of earphones to use at work for both music and work related media I found that ear buds were just not comfortable and the standard foam headphones not only weren't comfortable but didn't do enough to block out outside noise. After borrowing a pair of MDR-V150's I quickly ordered a pair for myself, the sound was comparable to headsets that cost much more, they were very comfortable for long periods of use and blocked out distracting outside noise. I now find myself taking them back and forth from home to work and am seriously considering purchasing a second set to keep at home.Customer Review: Great value

I just got these headphones on the mail, because I my previous iPod earbuds were damaged. The sound quality is very good, and these headphones are certainly less deafening than any in-ear phones I used before.
I bought these headphones for my daily walks between home and campus, and they are perfect for that, both tight on the head and quite comfy to use at the same time. Besides, they are safe, as you can still hear the traffic and simultaneously enjoy your music in good-enough quality (despite the lossy nature of mp3). I can't wait until summer comes to test these with some proper stereo SACD title on my hi-fi back at my home, but for what I primarily needed, these headphones are fantastic.

Sony MDR-V150 Monitor Series Headphones with Reversible Earcups
These headphones are awesome. They have excellent bass and excellent treble. Cord and connector are high quality and fit securely anywhere. When you first get them, the ear pads are stiff and may hurt a little if you wear them a long time, but they soften up within a day. The cord is extremely long, if you use them for an mp3 player you may want to bundle or braid the cord so you don't trip on them.
These headohpnes are so awesome, I bought a second pair after my first pair finally broke after several years of heavy use!
Customer Review: these are great. cant go wrong.
Summary: 5 Stars
as i see it the biggest complaints others have is the comfort. those people are used to earbuds. these dont fit like earbuds because they are headphones not earbuds.
i love these. as im typing im listening to a vinyl record through these . im on side c. they arent squeezing me to a headache, they sound great. great range, great channel seperation, and the sound is far enough away from the ear to still present a good soundstage.
bottom line if your used to earbuds you will not like the fit of these (or most other headphones). but they sound great.
p.s. did you hear that really low bass note i just heard. ofcouse not and neither did my neighbors. excellent product.
Customer Review: Inexpensive But Better Than My Expensive Headphones
Summary: 5 Stars
These sound better than my Koss Pro 4AA's which I paid $100 for, and sound almost as good as my Bose Triports. I went through 3 pairs of Bose Triport headphones before giving up on them. They are incredibly flimsy at the swivel joints on each ear; each broke after about 3 months of use just putting them on and off my head, and I don't have a big head. I'm not a kid and I take care of my stuff, not abusing them at all. The Koss heaphones are VERY heavy and do not have the full sound that these have. I picked up a pair of these Sony's at Walmart for a quick fix and they turned out to be great -- light, good sound, inexpensive, robust. These I've dropped several times and they are fine.
