How are these headphones?

I need some new earphones people. I only really need some "casual" ear phones if you know what I mean. I'm not too fussy about bass and all that techno stuff, just something that is comfortable, looks good and has good sound quality...I've picked out these.....any good??

If they're anything like a very similar pair made by JVC, then I imagine they'd be fine for casual listening. The JVCs were certainly comfy enough to wear ... though I expect you'll have to jack up the volume owing to sound leakage, and that'll annoy folks around you!

I'd urge you to try the Koss KSC-75 over those Sony's. Cheaper, absolutely superb sound quality for the money and a lifetime guarantee.
