Solid construction and great sound October 6, 2008
I bought a set of these for my personal use at my home computer and they have really worked well. I had gone through a few other sets of headphones and most aren't as sturdy or sound as good as these. When I needed to buy headphones for my work, (computer based training) it was a no brainer to select these. I ordered four sets for our training department, and I'll update if we run into any issues, but I doubt it will happen anytime soon. I've used mine at home for about 3 years, averaging probably 10-15 hours a week and they are still working well.
 Great Sound for Price October 4, 2008
These headphones are a great value. The sound quality is impressive and they are a definite upgrade over earbuds. My music sounds fuller with these headphones and there is great bass that's not overbearing at all. they are also comfortable to wear for extended periods provided I am not wearing earrings or my glasses. I love these headphones and the price makes them an especially great purchase.
A quick warning October 2, 2008
I've been using these headphones for about two years now, and I love them. The only problem is that I've used them so much that the vinyl covers on the ear pads have decayed. The right ear went first, and after a bit of searching I found replacement pads(part #211566701) for $4 on Sony's supply site.
I should've bought two, because now the left ear is shredded (which drastically reduces the sound quality) and Sony's site has replaced the nice cheap pad with a $14 model (part #211566702). I love these headphones, but for that price I could just about buy a brand new set.
Long story short, enjoy them while they last. They're excellent headphones for the price, but if you use them every day, the ear pads will eventually fall apart and replacements aren't worth buying.
Band Happy September 30, 2008
I play in a Worship band at our church. We are a growing church of about 1200 and have 5 services a week. I play in 3 of them. We are always having trouble with head sets as they just don't work or break down. We decided to try these as they are not expensive. We have found we love these. I love the way the ear piece sets just on your ear. We have found they are not too tight in the head as others have stated. I am a women and other guys are wearing them too and are not having a problem.
We have long reshural during the week and an hour before each service we play. So I am not wearing them all day long, but for the time I do they are the greatest so far. I am going to buy me personal set to wear at home,as I bought these for our band. They are very comfortable.
 Not a suitable replacement September 19, 2008

I bought these headphones, Sony MDR-V150s, hoping they might be decent enough to replace my 10+ year old Sony MDR-V100 headphones, or at least work as a secondary set until I found the right higher-quality headphones for daily use. Unfortunately, the audio quality was awful. Right out of the box, they sounded incredibly muddy/muffled/dull compared to my well-worn V100s. I went back and forth for a few minutes, between the new headphones and my old ones - the audio source wasn't the problem. Plus the cord was a bit thin/flimsy and too short for me, and the ear pieces felt like they didn't have enough padding.
I'm not an audiophile, and I wasn't expecting a lot from headphones at this price, but I just couldn't use these. They were back in the box after about 15 minutes of use and returned to the big box store a few days later.
