Motorheadphones

I just got my pair of motorheadphones (motorizer) today. There really well built have to say. Comfy and give out great sound. Only concern id have is the suede earphone covers will probably end up wearing away. Nothing lasts anymore but non the less. Anyone else got a pair yet? Thoughts?

My only issue with them is how much sound leakage there is. I have the same headphones as you, and when listening to anything on them the leaked sound is very audible if anyone else is around.

That would be my only real quibble though. The sound quality is excellent, and they sound as good as quality headphones that cost almost twice as much.

I also got a set of Motorhead earphones, the Overkill edition, and the sound quality is again excellent with them being quite comfy for use as work out earphones.

Bonus statue of Phil Lynott too.:)

I was thinking of getting a pair of these myself,my Sony ones are giving up the ghost now. I prefer proper headphones,not crappy in ear ones. Where's the best value for these that anyone has found?

I'd never buy "gimmick" headphones.

I'd buy them solely on the strength of their audio quality.

I paid about €160 for Audio Technica ATH m50s.

Much as I like the Motorheadphones, I'm leaning toward getting a pair of these. Are they as good as some of the reviews would have you believe?

If they were good enough in their own right they wouldn't need the Motorhead name attached to them. See Beats and Dr Dre.

They are very good for the money.
