Editorial Review:
The K 414 P is your featherweight solution for days on the road. Chill out and turn up the volume. These high-quality headphones provide fabulous sound and effective attenuation of ambient noise.Using the unique 3D-Axis mechanism, they fold down to a small package that you can take wherever you go. Best for portable MP3, MD, CD players and multimedia.

Great portable sound:
These phones are some of the best for what they're designed to do, namely, a) provide high fidelity sound for portable devices and laptops b) provide comfort and noise attenuation via an over-the-ear design c) not cost an arm and a leg. While they don't offer quite the isolation or bass response of full-sized headphones like my AKG K271 MKII Headphones or the resolution of my Open-Back Studio Headphones with Flat-Wire Voice Coil, they are much better suited to driving straight out of the headphone jack... more info
Great Sound and Great for Travel:
I have had these for 4 years and they are great. They have great response from high to low, and provide a lot more bass then most of this size. Also, the closed cup keeps out ambient noise. Overall a great set of headphones for Rock. The headphones collapse and have a fabric pouch they fit into which is handy. They are quite durable and withstood being thrown around in my backpack all day while in college. Another review claims the clips are uncomfortable. If you slide the clips closer together... more info
VERY uncomfortable:
I had read rave reviews on these headphones on another website. Here's the bottom line: I don't care how good they sound, if I can't wear them for more then 10 minutes without having to rip them off my head in discomfort! Awful. I don't have a large head or anything... I'm probably your average female user. The two plastic pieces at the top dig into your scalp, and the fit was very tight on the ears.
