Comfort
Capable of a high, distortion-free volume. Doesn’t isolate well at all.
Short-Term Use (5.00)
The Panasonic Technics RP-DH1200 would have been comfortable headphones were they not so tight. We passed the headphones around the office and got mixed feedback, but the majority had some issue with the headphones being uncomfortable in some way or another. The main problem reported was they grip the sides of the user’s head a bit too much for comfort. Additionally, they tend to not want to stay put, despite the squeeze: the band is a bit hefty, and if you tilt your head around, it’ll feel like the headphones are going to fall off.
Extended Use (3.00)
The problems outlined above only get worse with time. The squeezing is annoying at first, but after a few hours we just really wanted to take the headphones off. Those with larger than average heads should probably steer clear of these cans.
Customizability (2.00)
There’s unfortunately very little you can do to customize your RP-DH1200 experience. The band extends a bit and the cups rotate, but that won’t do much to mitigate their weight or the force they exert on the sides of your skull.

$99.954Sennheiser CX 680i
The Sennheiser CX 680i in-ear headphones are a decent set of lower-mid-range headphones with a remote & mic. They don't have the best quality and they're not quite as rugged as we would've expected from a set of in-ears aimed at the gym crew, but they're a great value at $100. Read full 13-part review
