Iphone Headphones Only Work On 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.

I have been using these headphones at a local library for months to plug into a PC 3.5 mm headphone jack. The in-line volume control means the world because one doesn't need to keep clicking on the GUI volume control icon every time the volume level changes for each website or video. They also work great plugged into my mobile device for work. The foam earpads are comfortable for long periods and the plastic headpiece is easily adjustable on both sides. This second pair I got for leisure use after taking my first pair to work for use there. Get them while they're still making/selling them! I've seen good earphones disappear from online shelves before. B&H is the way to go.

Nice headphones. I use to record sax and they work nice. Especially given the fact that the sax acoustic volume doesn’t overwhelm the headphone.

They work almost like stated people can hear some sound but not enough to bother them and i can hear everything. At full volume they tickle your face a little but totally worth the money

battery last about 10 hours a full day of work, comfortable, light good volume and good on calls

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

Volume control would be nice to have on headphones

i can last 4-5 full charges for my iphone 6 plus and has always kept it charge.

5 stars! Stable and very easy to adjust level with slider on.
