Today I bought a pair of Phillips HS490 headphones. These are like a clip type of headphone but the phones actually hang on your ears. Light and comfortable. These are open circumaural type. For the $10 I paid new, I thought what the hell if they sound bad I won't be too disappointed.
Well disappointed I am not! Amazing sound stage and balanced frequency response. For you bass heads, these would not be the phones to get unless you want to EQ in more bass. But if you like a well balanced sound, you would be hard pressed to beat these at this low prices. I would say these are on par dare I say/ exceed the SQ of Koss KSC75.
These are a keeper!
