Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - * Great Sound, Less than Stellar Comfort ...
I've owned two sets of the Sennheiser PMX100 Wrap-Around Headphones over a 2-3 year period.

From an overall sound quality standpoint, they're very hard to beat for their size. Additionally, they are lightweight so they aren't as cumbersome as some larger-diameter sealed earcup designs.

These are my gaming and travel headphones, and I game approximately 4-5 hours a day with them, as well as travelling overseas 3-4 times a year with them in my backpack. They hold up extremely well considering the number of times I've accidentally yanked out the 1/8" connector due to sudden movement. The fold-flat design makes them handy for travel as well.

The reason for a 4-star rating is two-fold:
1.) The comfort level can be very low if you rely on the stem coming from the headphone area to be behind your ear. When I first began using these, I put this behind my ears and I found it pinched. However, if you push these out slightly, the pressure can be on the headphones themselves and the force of the compression on the behind-the-head neckband will hold the headphones in place.
2.) There are short leads of wire running inside the neckband that carry signal into the drivers. On my first set, after over a year of use, the right lead became exposed and the connection was intermittent on the right driver. Additionally, I ended up shocking myself a number of times, because the wire was exposed from the shielding.

Overall, good headphones, durable for the most part, and comfortable for hours (depending on how you use the ear stems).



Buyer's feedback: 2 out of 5 stars - Great sound, not durable
I bought these in April after an extensive search for great sounding headphones. I used Sennheiser at my workplace, so I was eager to get these phones. The sound has been great, and they made my commute much nicer as l listened to my music on the bus. However, I noticed that the plastic coating the wire was no longer attached at the jack. I tried to remedy this with electric tape, and this worked fine... until today. When I pressed play on my ipod, I was devastated to only hear sound from the right phone.

I love the Sennheiser's sound quality, however, these are not the most durable headphones. I used them everyday and I am not sure what would cause the coating to detach from the jack. Needless to say, I am very disappointed.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Exceeded my expectations (updated) ...
I listen to music about 6 to 8 hours a day at work, had a long string of Sony MDR-32'a MDR-G42's and the like. I used rotate the Sonys into work out duty as well, which of course greatly reduced there lifespan. And was very pleased with the Sony ear phones.

But when I could not easily (one click order a pair of Sony G42's) I looked elsewhere, and purchased a set of Sennheiser PMX100s from Amazon.

And I must admit, the rubber ear holders took a bit to get used to, the Sony's would just slip on my ears, the PMX100s require the rubber being pulled away from the earphone, but now that is second nature, these are more comfortable and much better sounding. I just put my last two Sony headphones together for a spare set (older set had crumbling foam, recent set had right ear go out), and it was very apparent I will be getting another set of PMX100s for my backup set.

As far as background noise, I work in cubeland, I can hear a bit more of the outside world, but that is actually not a bad thing.

UPDATE: So after owning these earphones for a while longer, I maintain very impressed with the sound! As far as comfort they might not be perfect, but they are very easy to use all day long. I will be buying another set for my backup pair!



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Great sound, bad fit
These headphones sound great, pretty much equal to my much more expensive Grado cans but with much less mass and weight.

But, I just could not make them fit comfortably. They really wouldn't stay on. I exchanged them for the them PX100 which is the same headphone only in a traditional over the head fit. I love them. I'd give the PX100 5 stars.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Great sound, comfortable fit ...
The PMX100 Supra-Aural headphones provide a great sound for the price and are very comfortable to wear. I read several reviews that complained about the wearing comfort before I bought these. I cannot confirm those reviews. I have worn the headphones for several hours w/o any pain or wearing discomfort. I guess it must be somehow related to the shape of the head. Since the neckband is not adjustable in size I would only recommend it for people with a fairly slender head.

For myself, I can only say that I am very happy with these headphones. Don't regret the purchase a bit!

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End is a rollicking voyage in the same spirit of the two earlier Pirates films, yet far darker in spots (and nearly three hours to boot). The action, largely revolving around a pirate alliance against the ruthless East India Trading Company, doesn't disappoint, though the violence is probably too harsh for young children. Through it all, the plucky cast (Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, Geoffrey Rush) are buffeted by battle, maelstroms, betrayal, treachery, a ferocious Caribbean weather goddess, and that gnarly voyage back from the world's end--but with their wit intact. As always, Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow tosses off great lines ; he chastises "a woman scorned, like which hell hath no fury than!" He insults an opponent with a string of epithets, ending in "yeasty codpiece."!

In the previous The Curse of the Black Pearl, Sparrow was killed--sent to Davy Jones' Locker. In the opening scenes, the viewer sees that death has not been kind to Sparrow--but that's not to say he hasn't found endless ways to amuse himself, cavorting with dozens of hallucinated versions of himself on the deck of the Black Pearl. But Sparrow is needed in this world, so a daring rescue brings him back. Keith Richards' much ballyhooed appearance as Jack's dad is little more than a cameo, though he does play a wistful guitar. But the action, as always, is more than satisfying, held together by Depp, who, outsmarting the far-better-armed British yet again, causes a bewigged commander to muse: "Do you think he plans it all out, or just makes it up as he goes along?" As far as fans are concerned, it matters not. --A.T. Hurley

On the DVD
Here's something you can't say about just any DVD extras: There appears to be more of Keith Richards in the outtakes, interviews, and other special features on the At World's End disc than in the actual film. For those scenes alone, this special edition is well worth the price. Richards looks as woozy and gamey as all the rumors suggested, and answers questions he's not asked, with Johnny Depp sitting next to him, almost acting as a translator. Richards offers pithy comments like, "Everything I do is original, you better believe," and smiles when other cast members call him "Two-Take Richards" for supposedly nailing his scenes.

The packed second disc also includes a terrific mini-doc on how the filmmakers created the famous maelstrom, in an enormous hanger in Palmdale, California, with the ships floating 30 feet off the ground. "Just moving the Black Pearl was an enormous undertaking," says producer Jerry Bruckheimer with serious understatement. Other cool extras include "Tale of the Many Jacks," deleted scenes with great commentary, "The World of Chow Yun-Fat," a bio of composer Hans Zimmer, features on the set designers, a look at the impressive Brethren Court, and some hilarious bloopers. "You can't curse in a Disney film," deadpans Depp when a costar blurts out something blue. "See? I told him." The extras are truly as much of a rollicking adventure as the film. --A.T. Hurley

Thanks to a fortuitous intersection of talent and fate, 22-year-old Josh Groban hasn't finished his senior year in performing arts school but has already released his sophomore effort on a major major label. Fans of the young vocal phenom's debut will find much to enthrall them here, even if it nudges the singer closer to the center of producer/mentor David Foster's MOR pop sensibilities. Eschewing much of its predecessor's more overt classic-lite pretensions and pop-rock covers for a slate of dramatic, Eurocentric ballads that serve as a showcase for the singer's inviting baritone, Groban shrewdly positions himself as the American alternative to the Bocelli-Watson crossover axis. "Caruso" may find the singer falling short of its operatic inspiration, but "Oceano" and "My Confession" quickly showcase his true dramatic range (which seems to all but yearn for a bona fide Broadway musical challenge), while a vocal take of Bacalov's graceful "Il Postino" theme uses classical virtuoso Joshua Bell's violin flourishes to good effect. To his credit, Groban displays some promising efforts at songwriting collaboration on the bittersweet "Per Te" and "Remember When It Rains," while the ambient/ethnic soundscape of Deep Forest's "Never Let Go" offers a teasing alternative to the record's otherwise melodramatic production formula. Groban has found commercial triumph via Foster's mentoring, but there remains a nagging sense here that he hasn't truly pushed himself as an artist--yet. --Jerry McCulley

The world can't get enough of Madonna, and with CD/DVD sets like The Confessions Tour dropping regularly, it's little wonder why. As a thrower of fantasy dance parties, she is peerless. As a physical role model for the 40-ish women who grew up on her music, she rules. And as an arbiter of what's going to sound shockingly original in any given decade--well, duh. The Confessions Tour rounds up songs from way back--"Ray of Light" and "La Isla Bonita" make the DVD, and "Lucky Star" and "Like a Virgin" are on the CD as well as the DVD--but this concert, filmed in 2006 at London's Wembley Arena, aims its sturdiest spotlight on Confessions on a Dance Floor, Madge's 2005 disco disc. You could argue, then, that unless you're in it for the sheer DVD spectacle (and what a spectacle it is), there's no sense in owning this package. Only you wouldn't be right. Because as any on-the-ball Madonna fan knows, what she's doing musically is telling a story--you may already know the characters, but that doesn't mean she hasn't completely reworked the plot. To that end, "I Love New York" gets its rock on, "Let It Will Be" has a musical temper tantrum, and "Hung Up" goes for the drama queen award. You've heard these songs before, but you've never heard them quite like this, to borrow a bad informercial phrase. As twisted and hopped-up as they've become, they're all worth getting to know again. --Tammy La Gorce

Apparently there's nothing in Kabbalah that disallows sweaty, head-spinningly good dance music, because here comes a flame-haired Madonna hawking a dozen songs' worth: Confessions on a Dance Floor darts seamlessly from Madge's early days, when she emerged as the genre's enduring darling, through the political, kiddie, and acoustic pap that drove a wedge between her and early adopters of the fingerless glove look. Songs like the pop-leaning "Jump" and first single "Hung Up"--an adrenaline drip on high that, like many of these tracks, will inspire mild shame among those who've thrilled to the much thinner disco-dusted outpourings of younger divas recently--represent both a return to form and an unmistakable march into the future. "Get Together" is a sonic freak-out in the best sense; "Push" traffics in gut-level futuristic trance; and "Forbidden Love" loops in '80s blips and bleeps for a follow-me-into-the-past effect that's both neo and retro. For all the image-affirming innovations here, though, these confessions find Madonna framed in her share of reflective moments too. "Was it all worth it/How did I earn it?" she asks on "How High," a song featuring vocoder. "Nobody's perfect/I guess I deserve it," comes the answer. A later lyrical inquiry is left for the listener to judge: "Does this get any better?" Madonna wants to know. But that opens the door to a dizzying proposition. Few of us would have guessed, after all, that it got this good. --Tammy La Gorce
