Full review

I just recently bought these headphones as a replacement for my Sony MDR-V600 after much research for good quality headphones. Let me tell you, these are the best headphones I have ever used and a step up from the MDR-V600. If you want quality headphones, the MDR-7506 are what you're looking for. Here's a breakdown:

Pros:

-Amazing sound quality
-No background noise: Once these are on your head, you will not hear what's happening around you.
-Comfortable: I wear these for hours without any trouble.
-Portable: They fold to about half the size.
-Durable: On the V600, some of the plastic on one of the cans broke off, which made it hang loose. The MDR-7506 have metal instead of plastic in that same spot so i'm pretty sure i won't be having that problem with these (crosses fingers). This was a very important factor for me to buy these headphones.
-Not as bulky as the V600 and lighter.

Cons:

The only problem I've had with Sony headphones (besides for the breaking plastic on the V600) is the cord. With the V600, I kept rolling over the cord with my chair and the outside part of the cord (not the wire inside) split in a few places. Even after all that, they still work great. The cord looks pretty much the same on the MDR-7506 but I'm keeping it off the floor this time.
