Aren't all headphones sonic?

These look like they're soft enough to wear to bed. I wonder how comfy they'd be on an airplane.

Pretty good review from cultofmac @ http://www.cultofmac.com/136775/incase-sonic-headphones-are-these-the-headphones-apple-never-made-review/

4/5 Stars.

Compared to retail price, this is a steal. :]

Are these comfortable to wear with eyeglasses? All too often, headphones push my ear into the frame, causing discomfort after awhile.

These look real puffy, I bet my ears would start sweating in minutes?

These look incredibly well built!

This is a link to the official website and what they usually run for...looks like a good deal.

Gizmodo didn't like them very much, but they were at a $200 price point then. They did mention that they make your ears hot if you are prone to that sort of thing which as I assumed would happen in an earlier post.

Apple U.K. store only has two reviews, both positive, but one does mention it makes your ears sweat...

I have the Reflex model, which is one step down... I will say that my ears get quite warm in them, and I imagine this model would heat up even quicker. That said, I have tried these out (albeit briefly) at the Apple store, and they are pretty fantastic. They definitely beat the crap out of the Beats line.

And at $75 including shipping, these really are a steal. Wish I wasn't in school right now...

I know these aren't audiophile headphones but here's a good question.

How many Ohms?

I think these may be good when you sit up. When you lie down, I suspect thinner design such as sleepphones or earbuds work better.

Awesome! Souped up ear muffs!

What's the cable length on them?



[Thunderthighs: From the specs on the main page: Cord Length: 47" ]

HEY I LIKE BARRY MANILOW!

Actually, they are meant to be worn over your ears, not your eyes.....

I know, that was really stupid, but I couldn't resist!

Audiophiles wanted! I wanna know how these compare to high-end Audio-Technicas and Bose headphones in term of sound quality...I don't really care how they look. I'm sure many others feel the same way.

Per the specs: 47"

Thanks for making me look the tadpole

"Cord length" Pah, who says cord length

Thanks again StanleyS, I should probably read more carefully

Impedance 32 Ohm

According to Nextag which has more specs than the incase website.

(And just realized there's also sufficient info on the woot website, lol)

Ugh, I know this feeling. I have to wear eyeglasses and safety glasses all the time, yet I try to find good quality over the ear headphones. I have yet to find any that work without causing pain. So, if anyone knows if these are good or not, I'd like to know as well.

Here's a thread on head-fi (audiophile headphone forum) about these cans. I only ready about half a page but these headphones get a pretty decent review by some of the forum members and thats at the $150 price point. I'm going to pick me up a pair.

Found some reviews from the audiophile types. Pretty good reviews overall.

The Pioneer Steel Wheels that I got a while ago from woot are just broken enough for me to justify buying a pair of these.

Seems all I use Woot for nowadays is finding headphones.

Thanks A lot That's actually pretty good.

Are these noise reduction?

These look cheap. Like something homemade.

The wires sticking out on the sides remind me of Ewok ears.

These would be great if I could hear anything over the sound of how awesome I am.

You can buy a pair of Sony MDR-V6's for the same price. That's what the pros use, there's no contest.

Bose =/= high end audiophile equipment.

In for 1!

Say What?

I recently got a set of the Reflex headphones from InCase. I'm not an audiophile, or any other type of phile for that matter, but they sound good and are pretty comfortable, even with glasses. If I hadn't just bought those I would definitely go for these. The volume control,however, doesn't work with any of my stuff. I think it only works with iCrap.

The Barry Manilow snipe? Not necessary. You might choose some artist where you can be insulting, but to less people.

Dear wootStaff:

It's impedAnce.
