I bought these to replace my broken noise reducing earphones and because they were over ear design. Argos state that these are noise reducing earphones but they're not. I could still hear the TV even with the TV set turned low and my MP3 player high.

Given that this is a rather entry-level set of headphones, I'm willing to give some of their idiosyncrasies a pass. It's easy to nitpick a set of inexpensive cans, and even easier when some of Sony's own headphones outcompete the V55 handily.

Sony has been in the audio technology business for a good while now, so when we get a pair of Sony headphones in, our hopes are understandably high. Their design is attractive, and the Sony MDR-V55 can be swivelled and folded to be easily carried around.

Are you fond of Music?? Do you love to listen music while walking, reading and doing different things?? Do you love to listen DJ style music with your headphones actually with mobile headphones??

Userfriendly; good sound quality; portable

degree of sound leakage

The sony headpones givs ultimate hearing experience and the bass works awesome. However the main issue with the headphones , when you connect the headphones with mobile, the sound effect doesnot works the best. The cushions are not upto the mark, and also there is a confusion in warranty.

Comfortable; Good Bass; Great Sound; Stylish

Cord Too Short

DJ headphones are a funny breed. What they are meant to be is headphones used by DJs to monitor tunes while performing. What that frequently translates to these days, however, is a street-style set with way too much bass and poor sonic balance.

Bags o' fun sound; Decent looks; Powerful bass; Decent clarity

Not very comfortable; Creaky plastic frame

While you don't get a pouch, you do get generally very good sound (a touch of sibilance aside) at a very respectable price.

Generally very good sound; Excellent value for money; Excellent comfort

Some vocal sibilance; No in-line iPod remote control; No pouch

What a great product, but after about 4years, the fabric on the headset started to break down and fall apart in my ears. Too bad, since the headphones still work, but it's the same price to replace the fabric as it is to get a new set.

Great quality; portability; build

Fabric on headset deteriorated

i use these headphones for everything.

Awsome; Clear Sound; Futuristic White; Good bass; Very Comfortable

This headphones are worth of this money.
