PHILIPSStereo Over-Ear Headphones SHP1900/10 Hi-Fi Headphones with Cable (Adjustable Headband, Large earpieces, Lightweight Design, 2-m Cable) Black

When it comes to headphones there are a lot of choices Beats Audio, Skull Candy, and more, however when you are on a budget and looking for quality without having to shell out a lot of money these headphones are for you.At my son's elementry school one of the items on the back to school shopping list is a pair of headphones. Every few months it never fails that he comes home from school complaining that his headphones no longer work. Most of the time is the issue was from the speaker wires inside the ear piece detaching most likely from bumping around in his backpack.Since he has started school we have not had to deal with him coming home with broken headphones nor have we had to deal with his complaints of them being hard to hear out of as that was another issue with other lower cost headphones.These headphones have a solid sound to them. You could never compare them to say Beats Audio but for the money you are going to get a quality pair of headphones that are very durable.Pros:Low costGood quality soundFast ShippingExcellent brandFits my 8 year old very comfortablyCons:Not sound proof (was not an issue for our needs)

The Bass headphones I ever had and the earcuffs makes them Echo.

Bought these for $9.95 - hard to believe its so cheap. The sound is decent IMO. It does not have a lot of base but other than that its OK. The most important aspect of these headphones is that they are comfortable to wear for long period of time. I tried many different headphones and almost all hurt my ears/head after 20+ minutes, but these don't.If you don't have a lot of money - buy these!

First thing I noticed, freshly out of the box, was a relatively thin cord, but average length. So it has to be handled gently if you plan to reach an average service life. The sound is about about average for this price range up to those costing about twice as much. A bit disappointing, although not a deal breaker in my book, are the adjustments, for keeping the ear pieces the length you set, are not very strong, so it may change after you set it. In fact, plan on it changing -- although not preventing me from using it. I don't regret the purchase, but I would not repurchase for myself (because I use headphones several hours a day and appreciate better quality).

Shipping:The package was received very fast and appropriate to its set date.Packaging:The box was a little damaged, but it looked more like it was from its shipping experience and not done by the seller. Even with the slight damage done to the box, the product was well protected by a layer of bubble wrap.Item:All the manuals and extra box parts were included, showing that it was indeed brand new. The item works well and had absolutely no scratches or marks.

Using for sound editing and classes in general but great for any use! Wonderful and though bulky, the headphones stay on fine and are comfortable. I had them on while working on my projects and they're light, the cord is a decent length so no restrictions OR pulling from being plugged in! My second pair as well, love these headphones

I got this 6 years ago after my then philips headphone started disintegrating from many years of hard use.After 2-3 years the earpad plastic coverings (faux leather) started to come off little by little (which is normal) exposing the soft padding inside and i decided to tear off all the plasticky coverings. Sound wasnt compromised and still looks good (see pic).Stiffness of head band is ok though sometimes i wish it was tighter. Easy to adjust the headband height but the ear pads are not adjustable. There is just enough roof for my ears but if you have prince charles (of UK) mickey mouse ears, it wont have enough room!After 2-3 years the wire that goes around the headband conecting the two sides of headband came lose but you can fix this with superglue. Sound quality still perfect (see pic).I compared this with Sony MDR-1R (USD250 3 years back) and SonyPulse Elite headsets (USD150) and the Philips SHP1900 is only slightly behind Sony pulse elite (a great headphone by the way) and a lot behind MDR-1R. However, when i i consider USD250 vs USD15, it just doesnt make sense how close SHP1900 came to MDR-1R hi res headphone!I listen to everything from Ella Fitzgerrald, Miles Davis, Taylor Swift, Oasis, Metallica and Sex Pistols (except classical music).Its such a great buy that i am buying again soon.

Too tight for my head and it is heavier than the old model. The original model was lighter and ear piece fits perfectly.
