goods headphone, easy to handle [Posted on 2007-01-11]
Like the swivel technigue, fits pretty well, use it more for gaming than for playing music, which means that after some hours your ears start to hurt a little bit, but I guess that's with pretty much every headphone the case. It has a good full body volume sound and the price is very resaonable.

Nice product, confortable, excelent for personal use, at home or at studio fits quite well, people complains about not sounding hard enough at while playing at open and noisy spaces, but if you're using it for your self its very enjoyable.

My pair broke just after one year... I will never buy sony products again... they are just not good quality.
The Sony MDR-V500DJ are great! [Posted on 2008-04-06]
Before I bought the Sony MDR-V500DJ I had heard that they hurt your ears a lot, that usually made me not want to buy them. It is true that at first the headphones hurt my ears, but it's only in the beginning. Afterwards, your ears get used to the headphones and my ears didn't hurt.
So I would greatly recommend the headphones because they have some good quality sound, specially if your into loud techno like myself. The bass and the rotating earcups are great, they are nice to wear around your neck.
Overall the earphones are great.
Break very easily. Only a 90-day warranty. $42.00 repair cost. [Posted on 2008-04-12]
I received these headphones about a year and a half ago. I thought they were great until they broke today. I was simply putting them on when the cheap plastic just below the headband snapped in half. They were very well cared for and other than this problem they are still in perfect condition. $80 headphones should not break this easily!
The 90-day limited warranty obviously will not do me any good. Sony wants to charge me $42.00 (not including taxes or the cost to ship them there) just to repair them or replace them with refurbished ones. I'm very, very disappointed and I would not recommend any Sony headphones to anyone.
Stick with Koss headphones. They're in the same price range (many comparable models are actually less expensive) and Koss actually upholds the LIFETIME "no questions asked" warranty on their products. I'll never buy any Sony headphones again, and I will examine all other Sony products for cheap, easily breakable parts and short, limited warranties before I purchase them.
