Amazon.com Product Description
The Sony Monitor Series Headphones are ideal for professional audio artists ranging from DJs to recording engineers. The 40 mm driver delivers deep, accurate bass and broadcasts a broad frequency range. The circum-aural design cuts down outside noise while giving your ears comfort, and reversible swivel earcups also help keep your ears comfortable. A copper-clad aluminum wire voice coil enhances movement of the PET diaphragm, and an oxygen-free copper cord keeps noise down. The cord is 10 feet long, making it easy for you to concentrate on your work rather than being hampered by a tight, restrictive cord.

 Saved a lot of money November 16, 2008
I highly recommend these baby's! Some reviews said they were tight and had to change ear pads...huh? I've got a big ol' head and they were fine from day one, very comfy. As far as sound goes they are phenomenal. I've heard some very high end audiophile speakers and headphones in my day, as stereo is my hobby, and these Sony's are equal to or better than most. Clean, clear, crisp, good bottom end, no sharp and screechy treble, no muddy mid-range, just what's in the music and nothing more. I've got mine dedicated to a Denon DCD 860, a 1972 GREAT cd player and they sound amazing. For the price I'd say the sound quality is right up there with headphones costing in the hundreds!!!
 Very Decent Headphones November 11, 2008
The Sony MDR-V6 produces superb sound across the entire spectrum. Unlike some of the other reviewers, I do not find the lows stronger or weaker than the mid-range and highs. The set is comfortable, and the cups insulates noises well (not to compare to noise-canceling headphones). All that said, I still feel that the set should cost at $15-$20 less.
Break in necessary.... November 10, 2008
After a lot of cross referencing between the V6 and V600 headphones I decided to go with the V6s. At first listen I was very disappointed in my decision and even considered sending the headphones back. They were extremely "tinny" sounding and had almost no bass response whatsoever. For lack of having any other headphone option I continued to use them to play video games on my computer (straight jacked into the sound card)for about a week... then on a whim one night plugged them into my mp3 player which 1.) has higher fidelity music on it and 2.) had an EQ already setup (i later figured out id had the default computer set to flat)... my mouth dropped open in the first 5 seconds of "The Pot" by Tool.
I literally got chills as the bass came in and I had to sit down for the rest of the song. I have never heard my music sound like these headphones make them sound before. Another week of playing on my mp3 player and they sounded orders of magnitude better when jacked into my computer... then i checked the EQ for the onboard sound and set it up like the mp3 player - bliss.
These are the best Sony headphones I've ever owned ... and that's saying a lot as I've had at least one representative from every style in price ranges from $20 to $150.
The headband is comfortable on my size 7 3/4 noggin and I've had no trouble wearing them for 4+ hours at a time (in a warm room they do make your head get a little hot though). They sit lightly on your head and exert a small amount of pressure around your ears.
All in all I join everyone else in highly recommending these cans - especially for the price at Amazon. They sound twice as good, cost about the same, are less conspicuous, and fold unlike then my old Sony XD-400s (one of the kittens ate the cord)... I'll definitely be rebuying another set if the need ever arises.
Best Headphones I have owned October 31, 2008
I got these from Amazon.com (though electronic express). the sound is crisp and clear and the cord is long enough to reach across my room
I watch 1-2 hours of TV on a regular basis and the phones fit like a glove ( that is to say they feel great)
When I listen to music I can often pick out parts of a song that I had overlooked before. I have used these phones with both a Rotel Receiver and my computer (creative soundblaster 2 zs platinum sound card ) In both cases the sound comes in clear.
If I ever need another pair of pones I will turn to these first. so far they look as they will last, solid construction!
I use it when practicing my bass guitar playing October 12, 2008
I use these headphones when playing my bass guitar, great sound even on very low frequency, I used it with my Zune, again great sound, love them.
