Philips SHS5200 Reflective Neckband Headphones I am a medical transcriptionist. We all require comfortable headphones for daily workday wear and these are pliable, fit just close enough without pinching or causing headaches. I forget I have them on!! We also must have very clear, detailed sound so we can quickly recognize the difference between sounds to get things like medications and dosages EXACT; these headphones are perfect, playing even the finest details in the softest, unintelligible words!! Designer looks and practical too!

I wear these a lot , cause I walk dogs for a living. There are three fantastic things about this product. 1. The bass quality is superb, I compared it to my ancient headset, which I threw out into the highway. It’s because there is more airflow allowed to the speaker via three ducts 2. The cord is nylon wound. . yeah. it is not going to strip easily and is really durable. 3. Phillips attached a piece of elastic to give some added ‘give’ in case of random tugs. It works, and has save me about 7 times in a week. The design is fantastic too, they are comfortable, but not after a LONG time. you wouldn’t want them (or any behind the head phones) on a plane. A fantastic buy, they’re gonna last too.

I did my research before buying this pair of headphones, and it was well worth it. Besides their comfort, the sound quality is brilliant, and their construction is fantastic, too! I’ve bough many pairs of headphones over the past few years and I’ve always been dissapointed when the earpads start to tear off or the plastic coating on the cord starts to fray. . . not with this pair!
