Not the same model used on the moon is a con? Haha, you musta been a little hard pressed to find some then eh? :P

heheh, yeah. well they are a pretty good set of earphones for the money. they aren't sennheisers, but for $25 they are pretty darn good.

the moon models were going for $10k on ebay, so i went with the cheaper, newer model. :D

hope no one thinks i got paid to do this review. i bought these babies with my own $$$. so what you read is what i think. *they sounded shitty at loud volumes while playing electronica* see, a bad comment.

please don't hurt me slashdotters. :cry:

*cracks whip*

I read this review after purchasing these head phones. I was looking for a review that would show how awesome these things are to the people at the forums I go to. These things are the best $30 head phones ever as far as I know. The sound quality matches that of many $100 head phones. The ear cushions are awesome too. I don't think I will be buying new head phones for a LONG time.

Hi,
After one month the microphone stopped working. Actually, if you yell into it some sound will transmit.

At the time my son was 1 yr old and he would pull the cord until it fell off the desk onto carperted floor. Also, he would suck on the foam tip. I expected this and was hoping the mic would last longer.

I bought a Logitech USB 300 headset a few days ago. It has good sound quality and some nice features. The only problem is that the in-line volume and mic mute do not work correctly. All this for around $50. Needless to say they went back to the store and a Plantronics Audio 90 came back, along with the $20. I especially like the 9 foot cord. It will come in handy walking around my dorm room. The ear cushions are great. The in-line volume and mic mute, a VERY nice feature.

I now need a third headphone in one year. First one lasted about 9 months. Second one now no longer gets sound in the left earpiece, after only two months. Normal use, treated well, and I am not about to buy 6 pairs of headphones a year at that pace. Yeah, they are only $30, but youll end up buying a lot of them they break so fast.
