I be look for a well-made nice sound headphone and run across this set on Amazon after a brief search . briefly look through some review and decide to order the V-Moda 's . the headphone arrive promptly and come in a nice case . it be larger than some may want to carry around or when travel , but I be specifically look for a over-the-ear headphone so I know the case would be larger . the headphone fit snugly over the ear and really block out outside sound when you be listen to music or watch something on the iPad , etc. . would not recommend they at all for generally walk around as you would not hear what be go around you at all . I be initially worried aboput how these would feel after wear they for a couple of hour but Moda 's be really comfortable . I use they for quite a bit and I be surprise at the lack of any type of long-term listen fatigue . the sound quality be outstanding and the bass be solid and tight . Forgot how nice this style of headphone sound after use earbud for so long . now my daughter want she own set !! I would highly recommend these headphone and you will not be disappoint .
