Apple Headphones Full Volume

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The noise canceling capability of these headphones was off the charts! In a extremely noisy room, after putting them on it was dead silent. Bass was lacking a little at full volume, but at moderate volume it was good. The ability to cup the right headphone and hear all outside noises was a great feature that worked well so you don’t have to remove them to hear someone talking to you. Comfort was excellent and very light considering they are full size headphones.

I recently purchased a Casio Grand Hybrid digital piano ($3,500). Because this piano's internal amplification is relatively low, I found that I was in need of headphones that can get the full sound of the piano without maxing the volume out, which can cause some distortion of sound. The professional grade (and much more expensive) headphones weren't allowing me adequate volume without maxing out the piano's volume control. Not good. Surprisingly, my workhorse, inexpensive JVC HA-S160 headphones does the job beautifully! I get the full sound of this wonderful digital piano at half volume and, therefore, no distortion of my piano. When I play, it sounds like I'm hearing the piano acoustically, rather than through headphones, also helped also by the comfort of these light-weight, comfortable-on-the-ears headphones. I've had these headphones for more than a year, and was using them for a variety of purposes (even allowing my elementary students use of them!), yet I have had no problems. However, I did purchase a Belkin 1.2 m extension cable ($8.99) to allow a more ample reach between me with my headphones on and the 1/4 headphone input jack on the piano. Now, I only use these headphones for playing my digital piano. Honestly, I see no reason at this point to search for a pair of headphones that might do a better job for this particular, but personally very important, use.

Requests would be volume control on the headphones and better waterproofing.

Volume control would be nice to have on headphones

One of the best wireless headphones. I've got the apple EarPods and these are way better.

fits perfectly on my Matthews full apple.

It works exactly as I wanted it to. It boosts the volume of my standard headphones from my laptop as much or more than I can use.

nice sound, nice volume, nice fit, nice quality. I think I just love these headphones.

Full clear sound throughout frequency and volume range

My son really enjoys the headphones. Good volume quality
