Pros:
good sound, good bass, good looks
Cons:
ONE color only (pink), no noise cancellation
I don't know why so many people complain about the color of these headphones. It may be pink but it's a dark pink and looks sexy. They sound great, and are good for their price.

Pros:
fairly balanced, bass loud not muddy, comfortable for a full size, soundstage, NOT anything like skullcandys
Cons:
bright pink
the impedance at 70 ohms is really high for a $100 headphones, and really catches you off guard if you weren't expecting to use an amp with these.
unamped, it sounded muted, esp. at the extremes where the signal breaks off. the bass was still really loud though.
amped, the whole spectrum sounds full. the lows aren't muddy at all, and the highs and mids got a really nice boost as well.
lol at some of the people here saying bose is "clearer", when it's a cheap piece of plastic with an equalizer and reverb thrown in. how can you have "clearer" sound when their whole gimmick is smoothing or blurring out the spectrum depending on who you talk to. yeah i'm talking to you headphone noob.
i was really expecting these to be sony's skullcandys, and i was glad to be proven wrong. these offer really good sound for around $100, comparable to some of the lower end audiotechnicas but better than the budget sennheisers in my opinion. i guess sony's shooting for both crowds here, these are pretty good for people who care about accurate sound, and great for people who wanna look different.
anyway, in sum, if you want them to not sound like am radio, USE AN AMP.

Pros:
Comfortable, Good quality sound, Durable, Overall Design
Cons:
Hard to move them to have one ear open.
I've had these for about half a year now, so far I love them over any other headphones I've bought. They are quite reliable, with really good sound quality, and its durability is quite nice. I will always rush these whenever they are half price. The pink isn't the problem for me as even though I'm a guy, actually like this little mix up. It is hardly noticeable and almost any color looks nice with black.

Pros:
Color, style, comfort
Cons:
Not enough highs, doesn't come with a stereo adapter
I bought these for something different after my MDR-V6s finally died. I love the fit, it's very adjustable and doesn't budge after you find your perfect size. They're incredibly stylish, futuristic, and look like they will definitely hold up. The cord is awesome. Not only is it removable but it's flat - certainly less of a pain than the traditional flimsy/easily tangled cords. The speakers are angled towards your ear in a way I've not seen before. So far, the sound is good but not stellar. I think with a bit more breaking in they'll be better though. Balance is just not there yet.

Pros:
Design, sound quality,
Cons:
no isolation
While these have great sound for there price, they have absolutly no noise isolation. I though they would since they're closed headphones but walking down the street, I had to put the volume to the max! Awsome as long as you stay inside.

Pros:
Cool design, I like the detachable cord (maybe colored ones sold eventually), comfortable
Cons:
Not too wonderfully sounding, slightly tinny sounder for higher pitches, but relatively good bass
Overall I think they are good, nothing spectacular like I was expecting, but still not a terrible purchase. I really like how Sony designed the detachable cord, and the adjustment design is also very nice(stays in place, where as other headphones I have had don't). The pink isn't terrible, but at the same time I would've preferred a lime green, or just any color choice. One thing that does bug me is the fact that the speakers turn towards your ears, and thus it sometimes rubs up against your ear and the fabric that covers them is no the softest, and it causes slight irritation. I'd certainly recommend them, just maybe wish they were 10-15 dollars cheaper, then they would be more worth the money. As for sound, I think it sounds overall OK, there is a good amount of bass, but at higher pitches it seems to be "tinny" for lack of a better word.

Pros:
fantastic for HIP HOP
Cons:
People make fun of the color
If you use a booster amp, you're gunna be very happy with these. They are simply amazing. I'm sure there are phones that are a little better for strings, but not for bass n' treble. For my listening taste, they can't be beaten for Hip Hop sounds. BTW, I do also own Studio Beats. I prefer the Sony marquiis with a booster amp.....Grand Slam Bargain of 2010!

Pros:
Linguine 3.5mm cord, Look cool
Cons:
Audio quality is poor, Hard to wear to one side
100 compared to the Bose On-Ear headphones. The Bose On-Ears have crisper sound/better quality than these. By the way, they're not red--they're PINK.

Pros:
Excellent Build Quality, Stands out from past Headphone Designs, Comfortable and Pretty good sound quality
Cons:
A little heavy at times
I was originally looking to buy the lower priced 50 dollar headphones from the piiq lineup, but I decided on this once i tried them out at the store.
very comfortable to wear, good Bass, high notes don't sound tinny unlike my older skullcandy headphones.
also excellent design, solid feel, but can feel a bit heavy on your head --- i dont advise excercising with it on.
and yes, its PINK.
a little psychadelic, but its refreshing to look at after seeing all of those black/gray/white headphones that are flooding the market.

Pros:
sound great, design wise look great, detachable cord, long cord, very comfortable
Cons:
Pink? Really? Are you trying to prove a point that people will still buy it or just make people mad?
These are the greatest pair of headphones I own by far, the only downside? I can't wear them anywhere other than my house, because they're dipped in pink.
