Sounds like a browser issue on your end. Firefox is working fine for me.

I have Bose QuietComfort 2's. How does sound compare with these Incase Sonics?

Will these make my head look fat?

Will cat hair stick to these unmercifully and be hard to clean off?

Are they better than the ones with the Green Bay Packer logo I got earlier this year?

If it weren't for my Denons and Sennheisers, I probably would've bought one today.



I don't care about "style" but I am wondering about the mic quality.

So, based on the comments on the sound leaking out, I'm assuming these would not be good for sound isolation. I'm looking for something that would provide good noise cancellation, but I like the memory foam cans and something without batteries. I travel a lot, so not having to worry about yet another set of batteries would be a bonus. These seem light, have smart detachable cords, and are comfortable. However, I need something I can wear all day, and drown out the crying kids on flights.

re:Android. Is this a phone by phone compatibility issue? I feel like I've used Apple compatible headphones with my old LG branded Android phone.
As for the computer, there are adapters for Apple to PC that split it into a Mic and Headphone. I've been using one I got on Dealextreme for over a year now.

If you want noise isolation you're better off with a good set of in ear buds with a memory foam tip instead of the rubber tips that come with them.

Because the sound in and mic out (I/O for you fellow audio nerds out here) is integrated in one line here, you will only be able to use one of the two options if you plug it into your computer. Meaning, it will serve EITHER as a mic OR a headset, and you will have to use optional equipment with a PC or Mac to supplement.

That said, I bought the white/orange set in the Woot-Off in April, and I'm glad I did. No, they do not compare to broadcast/professional quality pair of Sonys or Sennheisers. But for listening to music on the commute or making long phone calls, these provide excellent value. And they also have held their appearance despite my many calls made on the porch.

There are very few moving parts to worry about breaking . They look great, although as others have mentioned they are bass-heavy. The oval, articulating ear cups are incredibly comfortable, even outdoors, in Texas, in June as I had the chance to experience. The 2 cords are a bit of a letdown - casual users are not going to take advantage of the 1/4 inch cable, and pro users won't like the treble-to-bass ratio. But for audiophile on a strict budget who wants one pair of headphones to travel, make Android/iPhone calls, and listen to music, this is a great set.

And for $10 less than I paid, I'm jealous.

As a guy with a big head, and one who wears glasses, These are fine. Even with some big hair there's plenty of room with these ear cups. These are the most comfortable headphones I've ever owned.

I have sennheiser HD 203's and find them incredibly uncomfortable and awkward, but are great with sound. Does the sound on these compete with the HD 203 or should I stick with great sound at a mild discomfort?

FYI, head-fi is not a reliable source of information. For that matter, neither are subjective listening tests. But aside from the reliance on subjective testing, head-fi also plays favorites with companies that pay to advertise on the site.

I actually read a subjective power cable shootout on head-fi that claimed various power cables (exactly like the ones you plug into the back of your desktop computer, except they often cost a hundred dollars or more) produced different quality sound than other cables, which is absolutely absurd. A power cable isn't going to change the sound at all considering that there are miles of wiring between your outlet and the power company's source.

Does anyone know where to get a longer 3.5mm male to male cable that isn't cheap generic black? looking for a 6ft+ cable in red or other colors if possible.

Awww crap it. Temptation won again. I have a pair of Bose QC2's currently but they aren't the most comfortable things in the world. These might be a good pair to switch back and forth too.

Tried to order, but "Buy Now" button does nothing. 58 prior Woots, and this is the first time it hasn't worked. New ownership causing problems?

I ordered a grey/blue one, and then I decided I wanted to change the color to black/green.

I went to cancel my order immediately after making the order, and Woot says that cancellation isn't guaranteed, and it isn't immediate.

I don't want to buy the black/green one and then find out I didn't get the cancellation for the blue one.

Does anyone have experience with this and recommendations?

Took an hour to get my cancellation notice today. I had the same issue.

I already have some good phones, but I couldn't help but succumb to this deal. Great reviews overall. Great price. Went for the gray/blue combo if that matters. Got a 12' male to male cord from Eforcity to plug into my HTIB. Looking forward to trying em out. Should be fun from all the good reviews.

I bought these last woot, I and every person I've had put them on have said they were very comfortable. I've worn them for 8 hour stretches without issue and I have long hair and it doesn't leave a headphones bump. They were worth the 69.99 then and are definitely worth it now.

Hi guys,

Coming back to the sound leaking question - I don't listen to music that loudly, and I'm fine with a little sound leakage. If I'm wearing this in the office, though, is the sound leakage, in your opinions, enough to annoy fellow officemates in my immediate surroundings?

Thank you. I haven't received my cancellation yet. I don't mind much what the color is, but I can't stand the possibility of what this means for prospective purchases in the future, and it certainly puts me in an awkward situation not knowing whether I should make my corrected purchase yet.

IMHO these aren't worth the bother. I'd rather not listen to music at all if I had to use these.



Too much bass is absolutely not the problem with these headphones. Pretty much all of the comments you will find support these being very crisp and full of treble. I have a pair, I noticeably experience lower bass on songs that should have heavier hitting moments.

Yes, orders on Woot take a while to ship because they are so busy every day shipping out all the orders.
