Well when I first got these headphones in the mail I was amazed how huge they are. Now I've used these headphones for just about every genre of music. From Showtek to Lady Gaga to Snoop Dogg to Bill Withers to Metallica and well you get the idea. They sound amazing! The low frequencies these headphones produce is mind-blowing! It's so low the human ear cannot hear it, but only "feel" it and is the reason I purchased these. For only 70$ these headphones were a steal and worth every penny. I also like the more modern look Sony went with, I can't stand those "kiddie" headphones with crappy designs on it. The only complaint I have is the short cord, although flat (which is very nice), could be longer.
