Digital camera reviews of Sony MDR-V600 Studio Monitor Series Headphones with Circum-Aural Earcup Design
Digital camera Review: Solid sound and isolation
Summary: 4 Stars
These headphones I have owned for 2 years and are still working great. I use them to play my electric drums set ( Roland TD-3 ) and they sound pretty awesome. I like the fact that you can use two types of jacks so I can listen to my zune and play my drums or guitar and use them to record music. I bought these for my dad to listen to his ipod and he loves them.I paid $100 from a retailer so the amazon price is great. They also work better than noise isolation headphones because they go over your ears. The only complaint is they get a little warm after a couple of hours, but that only happens when I play my drums so that might be why. Overall very solid headphones for the price.Digital camera Review: Love it!

I'm a professional club dj. I had a pair of these headphones for 7 years. They finally broke. I use them heavily 3-4 days a week for the past 4 years. Just bought my second pair. Very comfortable. Highly recommend them :)Digital camera Review: Have Your Cake, Eat It Too

Boy oh boy! My dad does a lot of video editing for my church and was looking for a decent pair of over-the-ear headphones that block out some of the ambient noise you'll find in any occupied house. What he found after some research were the Sony MDR-600s. I must say, what an excellent choice he has made.
First off, these headphones comfortably encompass the entire ear with an adequate amount of foam padding surrounding the ear. This is very useful if you frequently get ear infections, like myself. They press against the head with enough pressure to hold the headphones on securely, while remaining comfortable. The foam padding also adequately muffles outside noises quite well for not having electronic interference. You can wear these headphones for long periods of time without them becoming uncomfortable.
As far as durability, these headphones have put up with my father for over a year, but he treats them like the Holy Grail, so I'm no authority on the topic of their durability.
The most important part of any headphone review is sound quality review. The quality is clear and accurate. When I say accurate, I mean it has no bass boost or sound doctoring, or anything of the such. My music sounds as the artists intended it to sound. I have tested many genres, including acoustic/folk, hardcore, metal, contemporary, classical, etc. These are essentially universal, if such is possible. Low ranges are powerful and distinct, but not overbearing. The bass is proportionate to other ranges with no EQ present. Mid ranges are clear and vibrant, whether it's the vocals of August Burn Red's frontman bellowing in your ear or the echo of Dustin Kensrue's snare drum reverberating in your ear canal. The high frequencies are crystal clear as well. These headphones make it worth using the EQ on your iPod, though you won't need it.
Channel distinction is also clear, and you're able to hear the difference between an iTunes plus audio file and a lossless file. These headphones allow you to close your eyes and enter a universe of your own.
The value of these headphones is well-worth the $70 you'll pay on Amazon. A great balance of quality and comfort for a great price. In conclusion, if you have the liberty to do so, purchase these headphones. You will not regret it.
Digital camera Review: Old model, but great design
Summary: 4 Stars
I have gone through many headphones. These by far are the loudest. You can crank them up and use them as desktop speakers they are so loud. Design is extremeley sturdy. I was reccommended by 4 DJ's who use these to buy them. I have been through other Sony's, Pioneers and Denons. A lot of these other models all have breaking points. Most Sony's are rugged and usually the only problems I would have were wearing out the ear pads till they came off. These so far are the most durable for packing and traveling. Only thing I am interested in newer models , are possible replacable ear pads and cords. But these are excellent for the price.Digital camera Review: Excellent sound, great price
Summary: 5 Stars
These are excellent sounding headphones. I purchased them for my nephew last year and was afraid he would balk because they aren't the new little ear inserts most kids use today with iPods, etc.. He was exceptionally impressed with the sound. He's also a musician and has an appreciation for sound. He's still bragging about them this Christmas season.
