Tascam TH-03 Closed Back Headphone (Black)

I work from home and wear headphones for long periods of time. I've used these headphones for about 2 weeks and they are well worth the money. First, they are very comfortable. Snug without being too tight. Ear pads wrap completely around the ear and they do dramatically reduce noise. When music is playing, I don't hear any sounds other than the music and the voices in my head. The sound is quality is pleasing. I was pleasantly surprised at how long the cord is, I'm sure it's listed somewhere in the description but I didn't pay much attention to that when I bought them. I roll around in my chair from different areas of my office and I never have to take them off. And they the cord connects to the headphones on just one side so it stays out of my way as I type. I wasn't expecting a lot from an item I didn't research but these have been a great set of headphones and a great price. Added review from his wife: I can testify to the noise cancelling ability because I scare him almost daily (not on purpose, he just never hears me!)

I love these things. This is my 2nd pair. My 1st pair lasted 5 years theyears before I finally wore them out taking them on and off at work. The sound quality is pretty good for the price range and they're just expensive enough to sound good but just cheap enough to keep anyone from stealing them at work. My favorite part is the 10' cord that allows me to slide around my cubicle without ever taking them off. Although they're not true sound canceling they do a pretty good job of blocking all of the noises around me so I can just go into my own world.

Comfortable and they sound great.

I recently started a podcast (look me up on iTunes, etc, "JImmy's Table"). I find this headset to be perfect for monitoring my speaking when recording my show. The headset is very comfortable, and I can really it a really long time without the slightlest feeling of discomfort. And, I'm not trying to be funny, but I have a larger head than the average person (I barely fit an adjustable baseball cap), but I find this headset fits me just fine, and adjusts very easily. The sound quality is pretty good and meets my needs.

This headset replaces an aging headset my husband used to play back recordings from medical conference lectures. What a difference quality makes! The first time he used them with his deck audio cassette player/recorder, he had to turn down the volume by 50%! I bought this set because I new the Tascam brand name as a quality audio equipment manufacture. And he wanted the over the ear cuff design and the folding feature (to fit in his bag of audio recording equipment). He loves that the 1/4" connector screws off to reveal the mini-plug (rather than just pulls off). He expects the ear cuff design to help him when recording in a large presentation room with lots of distracting noises. Good value for the price. Highly recommend.

Got this as a backup for my Grado Headphones, but nothing holds a candle to the Grados'. The Tascam is a good headphone, but does not have the high frequency range that other headphones have. I like the long cord that comes with it. Do not need to use an extension. But, If you are fussy about sound quality,, look elsewhere.

Work as advertised, good price. Not very good sound but you get what you pay for

A suprising discovery. These are studio audiophile grade headphones that sound as good or better as anything on the market for 10x the price. If you listen to lofi, jazz, classical, or really any genre that has a lot of intricacies, these are your headphones.
