an audiophile *headphone* question

[backwoodsbob]

I discovered by almost accident my wife got me a pair of sony mdr v900 headphones for x-mas.

Any good?

Guess when e-bay shopping the wife should learn to clear the history before going to work :evilgrin:

1. Terrible, awful.

You should just box them up and send them to me. I'll get rid of them.

2. well i have a set of mdr 700

They broke earlier this year and I had to superglue them back together...there is a wire sticking out the side but they still work.

Guess she loves me :-)

5. If your wife bought them for you...

I suggest they are the best you ever heard. You had no idea such good headphones existed.

But don't forget to take them off while having sex.

6. The big Sony cans are wonderful

I've been using V600 cans for years, the big Sonys are a studio staple. Good sound, efficient, and good isolation.
