 I am partially deaf because of these, but they're good. December 25, 2005

I bought these a year ago as a joke, because Coby products are usually a joke, but not a very funny one. The included ear buds are garbage. Open them up and throw them away, or stuff them in the couch if you're too far from a trash can. You don't need to open them up before you trash them, but you should just in case someone comes along and thinks they are new and tries to use them. Lawsuits happen this way, and this is exactly why many retail stores crush their garbage and make it unusable. The headset sounds terrific, however, although it can be a little excessive in bass. It sounds almost like $200 sennheisers, which is amazing and also pretty much a lie that I repeatedly tell myself.
That said, do not listen to music and/or play video games wearing the headset without testing the volume first. Also, don't spill Diet Mountain Dew on the left speaker and then continue to play music. Furthermore, you can't wash Diet Mountain Dew out of this thing without ruining it, and you really shouldn't try to do so when it's still plugged in.

I hate Coby products. They are usually really low grade. But I bought these almost 4 years ago and still use them before my sony, maxwells, zeniths etc. It has such a deep bass response and can get extremely loud. I agree with other reviewers that it is good at muffling outside sounds as well. It's worth a try to anyone looking to replace the phones that came with their system. Enjoy!

i bought a pair of these 2 years ago because they were cheap. they worked great till i accidently broke them, then i went out and bought a 50 dollar pair of sonys to replace them thinking they would have to sound better than a 12 dollar pair of generic coby's. only i found out the sonys sounded like crap compared to the cobys, luckily i found out i could still buy the cobys i bought 4 pairs on sale for 9 dollars a piece and still came out cheaper than the sonys only now i have good sounding headphones with all the power i need and 3 spares. i highly recommend these to anyone that enjoys good bass and powerful sound.
i aslo agree with the last persons comment on them making them hard of hearing lol these will make your ears ring if you want them to.

I use mine all the time. I ordered them in 2003 and they still work. I'm ordering a 2nd pair before they stop selling them! They are comfortable and the sound quality is good. They muffle outside noises well.
 Good Headphones for Portable CD Players April 15, 2005

If you want a pair of fairly inexpensive headphones for a portable CD player, try the CV200. They have high efficiency and fairly good bass. They don't have the high frequency resolution of better phones, but have much better sound than 90 percent of all the headphones that come with CD players. Comfort is OK, and they adjust enough to fit most people. The bonus earphones are not worth much.
