Great, but...
Great headphones, have been using them for years and years. The only thing I don't like about them is the fact that the leather around the earpiece starts falling/flaking off after a few months of use.

Excellent sound!
I purchased these for use in a small home studio setup for podcasting and have found the sound quality to be excellent and the headphones to be extremely comfortable. They are in fact so comfortable and sound so good that I've actually used them a time or two just to listen to lossless-quality music on my iPhone. Totally not what I bought them for, but the sound is just so good!

Great for studio and field work
I am a professional videographer and have used these headphones for critical audio during many video shoots including; live events, Interviews, video editing and even just to jam to my tunes when I get to a location early. The over the ear comfort is great and I have been able to wear these for several hours non-stop without much in way of discomfort. I also love the coiled cable, I can leave the ears on while multitasking behind the camera witho... Show More

I use this for some home mixing (final mixing in a studio) and it is pretty honest, translates well to various systems including the subs. I make a lot of EDM as well as some acoustic based music. These have held up pretty well so far but time will tell, I had a pair of the 7506s in the past and they lasted for about 10 years or so.....

These work!
I do interviews in a loud setting and these are good to isolate my sound. Minus one star for comfort. Over the ears gets hot.

Best headphone to do everything
These live up to all the hype. Sturdy, trusty, sound great, comfy, etc. nothing else to say. Best you can get for most applications. There will always be better, but for the price you can't beat these!

Good quality sound for nice price.
I use these on my big laptop. I tell you takes much less power than my old cheaper Sony's I had. It plays very loud even at half volume. With software equalizer on most laptops you can get the perfect sound you want.

MDR-V6 Headphones by Sony
I use them at home to listen to The Beatles, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Led Zeppelin... and Chopin.You will not by better headphones for less than $.The sound quality is excellent.I could use some more isolation (from ambient sounds).Plastic parts look OK, but that I am not to crazy about them.

To keep this simple, these are the headphones to monitor your mix. They do not color your sound. And you will hear every thing there. They are natural. Sony is the one doing this right. Now for construction. I like the build quality. There is plastic where it doesn't matter, but good material where there should be. This helps with comfort because it affects weight, and price point as well. Just take care of them. The cable has a nice weight to it... Show More

These sound just as good as others costing much more. Rather light weight is good for wearing during long periods.

Outstanding Performance for Your $$$$
Do what you say, when you say, for the price you say. Good business practices. Sony accomplished this with the MDR-V6 headphones. Outstanding sound quality, comfortable, durable, reliable, economical - who could ask for more. They still receive outstanding reviews and are still in use, both by professionals and novices alike - since the mid '80s.

Great lightweight phones for sound work
Lightweight. Very good at reducing peripheral sounds from surrounding editing rooms. Clean, crisp sound. Good price. Lower by a buck or two from the large online store.

Great Headphones
I bought these headphones to use for monitoring audio for video in the field, as well as to monitor audio while editing in Adobe Premiere. The sound quality of these headphones is top notch. As far as I can tell, these have a very neutral frequency response that is ideal when editing and applying effects in post. I am also pretty impressed with how comfortable the headphones are. It takes several hours before my left ear (and only my left ear) starts to ache

17 Years of Trusting this product !
I am using these MDR-V6 for the past 17 Years for recording purposes, I keep one spare on the shelve if Sony decides to discontinue so at least i will have a new in box for a few years until i will find a GEM like this one ! I recommend MDR-V6 Stereo Headphones in a heart beat to anyone looking for a professional yet economical headphones. Though the latest ones have shrink-ed in size a bit but still cant beat the quality at this price !

Beautiful Sound
I love these headphones. My dad is a audiophile and he recommended them to me to replace the old Sony MDR-V600 which I unfortunately broke. The sound is amazing, especially for the price. Also, they are comfortable even when I wear them all day while working.

Great sound quality.
I use it daily while working listening to a variety of music from rock to pop to classical and all sound great. Comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.

Great Sound, even for an inexpensive set
I use these for video sound design and music production. For a cheap set of studio monitor headphones, they perform really well. They are comfortable to wear for long periods of time, even though they don't breathe well. You'll find that they help you regulate work breaks to cool off your ears. Not a detraction from how well they do in professional work setting at all. The sound reproduction is nice and level, with only a little dip in the bottom... Show More

29 Years and Still Going Strong
I purchased for these for $ on Guam when they first came out in 1985. I work in broadcasting and program production and for the price have never heard headphones that were any better. Just replaced the earpads. They are keepers.
