1000+ Head-Fier
Pros: Over Ear, Little Clamp, Quality for the price
Cons: Little Clamp (For some oddballs :P), Pleathery pads, Wing system
I do not have a large head, nor an obscure shaped one.  What I can tell you is that they are by far the best sounding headphone you will get at $99.  
They are genre plastic, and do well with many types of genres.
 
They can be sibilant under poorly recorded / low quality music files using Asian DACs/DAPs.  Under DAPs such as the Zune HD, and the Nokia 808, sibilance is not as common.  This is only a minor gripe, as they have never been sibilant to the point where they fatigue.

Comfort can be a mixed bag for some, my only issue with comfort was giving the pads time to break in.
The Wing System is notorious in the Head-Fi community.  Most people find them comfortable to wear, however some find the supports to be unreliable.  Overall I have not had any issue with the AT line, though I do prefer more clamp than what they offer.
 
If you're looking for a headphone for the home for cheap, this is an easy recommendation.  They do isolate and have good leakage, however, wearing these in public will get you a few good stares (yes, this is coming from personal experience)
 
I haven't gone in detail intentionally, as there isn't anything in this price range worth looking at when you can get the A900x for $99 refurbished.
 
EDIT:
Quality:  5/5
Comfort: 4.5/5
Design:  4/5
Value: 5/5

Just picked these up from another Head-fier and I agree, best value I've heard to date. I was looking for a closed can for work with a similar sound signature to the HD650 and these were right on!

I have to agree, these things will get you stares because they are simply so big! Not to mention the unique wing system.

I did also get looked at oddly when I took them to work. Then people starting asking about then and now a few people that have their own. :D

Feels good to start a movement.
