Customers like the sturdiness of the headphones. They say it's well made, and has a strong metal head-band. The headband area is solid, but comfortable. The headphones pack a solid punch and can take a beating. The first few minutes they feel secure and form fitting, but the headband loosens up after a while, allowing them to wear them for hours.

Customers also say the headphones are very crisp to the original source, and offer a level, crisp bass that they find enjoyable.

Customers are mixed about the cord length of the sound and recording equipment. Some mention that they enjoy the coiled cord, which stays short when they need it. The thick cable prevents stray cord syndrome, and is robust. However, others say that the non-detachable cord creates a few issues with the length and the inability to remove the cable.

Customers are mixed about the portability of the headphones. Some mention that they are very portable, light enough that they don't feel like a burden on their head, and perfect for use with portable players or amps. However, others say that the headphones are a bit heavier than your average, the wire itself is heavy, and the underside of the headband is very thin.

Probably a bad issue of an excellent headphone

Probably a bad issue of an excellent headphone
I had to return what was probably a bad sample of a headphone that is probably as good as most reviews indicate. My set did not sound good to my ears. I have used Sony 7506 phones for 7+ years and I recently ordered a second pair. I needed a third set and decided to try these M50s which I have read and heard about for years. The lower tones sounded a little boomy for my tastes and too cloudy, veiled, or murky. Also, horns, generally, were veiled. Piano sounds in all genres sounded great, and guitar sounds were particularly wonderful. I was surprised at the limitations I encountered, and the killer was that the 3.5mm plug did not connect well with my new HP Envy 27 input (unlike the plugs of my other head and earphones) -although it connected fine to my 2 Zune HDs and other devices. I was very impressed with the build quality of the M-50 phones and liked the wire-caged connector as a quality touch, and it looks great to boot. The coiled M-50 cord stretches only about eight feet, a few less than my new 7506s -which, in turn, stretch a few feet less than my 7+ year-old pair.Finally, I decided to not try another pair because the M-50s were larger than I expected and like, and the fit a little tighter than the fit I enjoy with my 7506s. The tightness was not excessive by any means, and it was less noticeable after the first week. On the size matter, I have uploaded a photo that shows the 7506 phones folded within the M-50s to illustrate their relative sizes. If anyone can recommend a closed or open (under-$200) set of headphones that are as compact or nearly-so as the 7506s, please enter them as comments. Thank you. Enjoy the music.
Thank you for your feedback
