I Love This Product, but.....
I absolutely love these Over-the-Ear buds by Jensen, but I've gone through 3 pairs in the last 2-1/2 years. I love the way they fit. They sit snuggly in my ear like a regular bud and the over-the-ear part guarantee that they're going to stay put. Nobody can hear what I'm listening to. I use them a lot and unfortunately the bud detaches from the over-the-ear thing and sometimes when that happens the wire breaks too and the sound is lost. I have yet to find something similar to these that will fit the same and give the same sound quality.

Powerful for the price
Until an accident caused one bud to stop emitting sound, these were my favorite pair of earphones. They were comfortable (I often left them in when I went to sleep), affordable, lightweight, durable, and had good sound quality. I used them with my Sony CFD-V5 boombox, my Oritron OP5034 portable CD player, and my RCA RP2410 MP3-CD player. On all three, bass and detail was great, and there was no distortion at a higher volume. All in all, these earphones were a great value; the only possible downside is a bit of fuzziness in the sound, which I got used to rather quickly and began to prefer over my other earphones (it lent a bit of warmth to the music). I plan to buy another pair in the near future, and I highly recommend that you do so as well.

pretty good headphones, a little uncomfortable though
I like these headphones. The foam cushioning is comfortable but the part where they wrap around my ears it gets uncomfortable after a while and make my ears red. The bass is pretty good and I recommend the headphones to anyone who doesn't mind being a little uncomfortable around the ears.

Good, but i've seen better
I've seen those [other] sports radio headphones, but i didn't have [$], so i bought these because these are cheap. First the pros: These sound awesome, they don't mess up bass. You can make them quiet or loud. Now the cons: These are uncomfortable over time, but this is only after like an hour of nonstop listening. A minor one, but the foam covers sometimes slip off over time. You can easily slip them back on though. My verdict;
I dunno if i'll save money for the [other] of buy these again.

Incredible
These things are truly amazing. They are small as my regular 10 dollar headphones, yet they sound as good as my 30 dollar ones! They truly are a genious work of art, and will stay that way. These things go LOUD, and I mean LOUD! A great way to blow your eardrums out of your head!

But why pay 200 dollars to get 30 dollar headphone sound quality inside a miniature casing? Spending that kind of dough, I expect Studio Headphone quality! The bass on these things is what drives them down. Sure, they go loud, but the bass is so distorted that the static itself has given me nightmares. I recommend something a little more obvious, a 200 dollar pair of headphones SHOULD be big along with good sound quality, not miniature headphones with a 30 dollar headphone sound quality. I'd rather buy a Sony than these. If you want sound quality, go with a Sony (Koss are also excellent) these headphones cost 60 dollars yet sound nearly five times better! If you want portability, go out and buy yourself a nice pair of around-the-ear headphones. They are sleek, sexy, stylish, sound good, all for 20 dollars. Go ahead, you deserve something better than these headphones.

These are great, as noted above, but...
I'm afraid that the writer didn't notice the product information: these appear to come in packages of 50 (huh? why?) which contributes to the extremely high price--they should be about ten bucks apiece. That said, these are easily some of the best headphones I've ever come across, though the foam insulators don't hold as long as you might wish if you're not really careful with them. These things go VERY loud with no significant sound distortion--I really have used them as miniature speakers on a few occaisions. The bass is very clear, and anything loud enough to really begin distorting the bass would be loud enough to catch the attention of a deaf man. If you can purchase a pair as a single item, these are very highly recommended!

comfortable fit but the sound lacks quality
i figured the hs41k would be a step up from my hs40k panasonic clip ons which have some of the best sound i had ever heard.i plugged them in and was disappointed fromt he start.the quality sounds like each song is played at 96 kbps (lower quality sound).they were only 8 bucks so not much of a waste and they are very comfortable.try another set if u have the money.

Quality Headphones
I bought these headphones because I was looking for comfortable, clip-on headphones that I could wear during long car rides. These headphones are the best I have found. The sound quality is excellent, loud, sharp, and full. They are very easy to get on and have not caused any discomfort to my ears at all. I highly recommend these to anyone who wishes to have comfortable, inexpensive headphones for long-term use.

Nice for the price
though i didn't buy these through amazon.com, i bought these headphones online....u get your money's worth. a little bulky, the earphones are comfortable and some sound is lost...i find that my sony foldable headphones deliver a closer sound. but, these 'phones deliver great bass and very clear music. i recommend these for portable audio and home computer use. as i've said, exellent headphones for the price.

great product! Excellent BASS
this product is an excellent product it had great bass and it is desighned to fit you perfectly the ear pieces move to fit your head also the sound quality is great but the picture on amazon is somewhat misleading it does not come with sound contol on the headphones and it doesnt come with the dapter shown in the picture, and it does not weigh 5 pound it is less than 1 pound, but it has great sound and i would recommend it to anyone

Radio OK, but excellent tape player
The radio on this walkman is nothing to rave about. It picks up a lot of interference on FM from strong stations, but AM is a little better. The cassette part of this is excellent, however. It sounds great and the XBS system works well. Even with it on there's no sound distortion, even at high volume. Rewind and Fast Forward are really quick. It can wind a tape faster than any other walkman I've had. Also battery life couldn't be better. The batteries last a long time and even when they are weak the tape player still runs and the volume still goes up all the way without distortion, unlike other walkmans. The previous model, the RQ-V65, which I own, has a much better radio and I use it all the time. But when the volume control wore out I purchased this model thinking it would work exactly the same since appearance and control layout were similar. The radio didn't, however. Fortunately I had my old one repaired and since I was more interested in the tuner I sent this one back since I didn't need it anymore. But if you're looking for a good cassette player and don't care about the radio this is an excellent choice. It's definitely better than a Sony (which puts out no bass at high volume).

Good "budget" Walkman.
This is a great cheap personal cassette player. It is fairly lightweight and quite unobtrusive. If you are not out to look extra fancy this is a great player. Also it gets excellent battery life. I can listen to tapes all week long at work for almost a month(3.5 weeks on last set), usually about 3 hours average a night, on just two AA batteries. (I use only Duracell).

This is undoubtedly the battery for you
It's pretty hard to write a review of a battery; it either works or it doesn't. This one does. It also fits the unit for which it was intended. So that's two points right there.

If you have a set of Senns, and the batteries that come with it aren't enough to keep you going (I actually find that they last closer to five hours than the four advertised), then this is the product for you. You might even want a recharging unit too, since they take at least fourteen hours to recharge, and the headset stand only holds two batteries. The spare battery can be crucial if you're like me, and often use the headset all day at work! Go for it!

Always have an extra battery on hand...
I love my Sennheiser wireless headphones. The one drag is when the battery begins to lose its charge -- which is why it's important to have a spare.

Manual a Must
The manual is important. Don't avoid reading the manual, or you'll be confused and possibly void your warranty.<br /> <br /> The manual is made up of pretty small pages. Page 2 of the manual tells the parts of the earphone. The last item on the list is a "wax guard," referring to page 9. Page 9 is the last page of the verbose area of the manual, describing the wax guard.<br /> <br /> The earphones ship with the smallest conical sleeves installed, without any wax guard. You have to take the sleeves off, install the wax guards, and put a sleeves back on, or else you void the warranty. I found that to be the weakest part of the process.<br /> <br /> Otherwise, they seem fine. These are essentially earplugs with earphones attached. I must have small ear canals, because I find only the smallest foam earplugs to be comfortable. The sound is good; the cord seems to be an appropriate length for a hip-mounted monitor pack or personal sound player.

Not bad.
I got these as a present and was initially unhappy with the quality of the output - until I read the manual and realize the special position of the headphones (wiring curled over the ear and behind the head). The tighter the seal with the sponges/earbuds, the more the isolation factor and the better the quality sound. But this puts the speaker tunnel deeper in your ear canal.

Pretty good on the train and helps the 2 hour daily commute - blocks out most conversations. But certain voice pitch will permeate (bad) and the conductor annoucements are heard clearly (not a bad thing).

Excellent in the work place but it is a pain to take the buds out then put them back in.

Overall good for a city person/commuter warrior who is a minimalist and wants to block out the world.

best in class
I've used my pair frequently for about seven months.

When used with a pocket-sized player (such as a digital player), the volume control on the cord (which distinguishes this model from MDR-G57G, MDR-G52LP and MDR-G72LP) is convenient---particularly for a person like myself whose playlist often contains classical, jazz and rock.

The plastic armature can be adjusted by bending. After a little adjustment, I've found them exceptionally comfortable for extended wear, even with glasses.

The slightly obnoxious silver Sony logo is on a pair of plastic inserts that can be removed easily.

Comfortable
These do seem to be a little heavy, I could feel a little difference. These are though very comfortable. The bass seems to sound better than my other headphones on full bass, which is good. There is a volume control on your headphones, but I don't really understand why you need it, unless you really have to change volume. It is a behind the neck strap type headphone, and sort of disappointing that you can't put your head back. After a while though, it starts to hurt, but only for a few minutes, then, more music. It is gold plated, and I got this for [$$$]. It does not fall off your ears unless you start hitting the neck strap. Part of the headphones are made of rubber, to keep the headphones in place. I would recommend it to anybody. Plus, if you really want to hear the music without it, full blast. But, high volumes do seem to be really hard for people to hear (or not at all), like my CD player.

Top Quality
I just bought this headphone from somewhere else for $20. Its wonderful...The sound is much better than most headphones I have, which are mostly the ones that come with the cd player or PC. This was a great buy for me...The only thing I regret was not buying them here and saving myself $10.
