 mdr-v6 are the last headphones you'll ever need September 20, 2008
best headphones on earth. i actually confused some of the sounds on the records i was listening to for real sounds in my room. xD the bass really comes out and its so rich and distinct. it really had made me fall deeper in love with music.
Nice headphones August 28, 2008

I bought these to use when playing electric guitar, so I don't disturb my wife and neighbors with my bad playing.. I wanted something comfortable, durable, with a long cord. These fit the bill perfectly. They are well built, fold easily, and fit in a durable bag easily. The sound quality is excellent. I've heard static a couple of times when shifting the guitar, but that's not the fault of the headphones. I have a medium sized head, and they fit me snugly but comfortably. I can get a bit of nausea when using them, but not nearly as bad as some other headphones I've tried.
I'm very satisfied with these headphones, they are well worth the price.
Well worth the $ August 17, 2008
After having my MDR-V6 headphones for six months I think I can finally give a review of them.
PRO - Flat, accurate sound from low to high that gets smoother the more I use them.
Reasonably light weight for their size.
Generally well built except for the exposed wire leading to each earpiece.
The low impedence allows me to use the V6 with my retro portable CD players (one of them only uses 1 AA battery) with good sound volume. No need at all for an amplifier.
CON - When putting the headphones on, my fingers sometimes get caught in the exposed wires leading to each can. I've learned that when one of my fingers can't let go of the headphones after putting them on, to stop and gently pull whichever finger is caught out of the wire loop lest I rip the wire out of the can.
The pleather earpads that come with the V6s tended to make my ears REALLY hot and sweaty in summer weather. I replaced them with a pair of Beyerdynamic Velour Padded Earcushions for the DT-250 from B&H Photo. Big improvement in comfort and sound quality, especially comfort. The Beyerdynamic pads are cooler and more transparent to sound than the pleather pads that come with the V6s. I should have ordered the Beyerdynamic pads at the same time I ordered the V6 phones and replaced the original pads immediately. When i get my backup MDR-V6 I'm going to do just that.
Summary - If your taste in sound tends towards flat, uncolored accuracy (as does mine) and you don't want to spend loads of $, then the MDR-V6 is the one. Bassheads probably should look elsewhere.
Great Sound, Rock Solid... Since 1998 for me... and counting! August 14, 2008
I've had these headphoens since I got my DJ gear in 1998. I use them 90% for work, because I only DJ once a month now. Everyday, toss them in my backpack with everything else, toss the backpack in the car, the floor... never break!
The sound is amazing, I don't hear anyone else around me talking so I can focus on work and listen to music.
They are super comfortable (for me anyway!) I can wear for hours without any pain on the ear from the cup at all.
Ten years and counting. So for $10 a year, that's one wise investment.
Outstanding Headphone August 5, 2008
This is simply put the best headphone that I've ever own. I've never heard anything that sound remotely as good as this headphone. I'm hearing subtle sounds and beat from my music that I never heard before. And the price couldn't be better and the cool packaging was a nice topping. My only regret is not knowing about this class of headphone sooner.
