One side always stops working and then the next side follows shortly after. The wires seem cheap and faulty. I hope this 3rd set holds out. I bought these and had to return them two times. They just stopped working each time.
I like the long cord as well.The only complaint I have is that they make my head and ears hot when I wear them for long periods of time. I guess I expected it would, but this has not been a disappointment. Overall I have been very happy with these headphones. The leather around the ears gets very warm after listening for a while causing me to sweat a bit.The noise reduction button works well, but does not completely shut off the outside world. Overall, this is a very good headphone for the price. They are comfortable and the sound is fine for my purposes. I am not a critical audiophile, and to me these give a perfectly fine sound for my listening purposes.
I also found there is a odd L-R balance issue. I think the previous generation of the same headphones was better than these. They are comfortable though, and have great sound, so I guess if you looking more for cheap comfortable headphones these are for you, but don't count on the noise-canceling.
It does not cancel noise in any appreciable way (just a little bit, may be 10 - 20%).
In addition, the location of the battery pack, in the middle of cord is kind of awkward and adds weight to the cord that just feels weird. I bought this set of headphones because I needed a 2nd set of headphones for my computer and I liked to have noise canceling. Overall, I would recommend that you pass on these headphones and buy a better set It also has a tendency to bump into things and make noise. In less than 6 months, the left headphone has gone out completely, and the right one works sporadically. Granted, I did travel with them a lot, but they did not live up to my expectations.
