Awesome headphones,

Especially with VMSS turned to max, this thing rocks. The sound is really clear and the bass is strong. I really can't tell the difference between Min and Max VMSS, but they seem to drain the battery at about the same rate anyway.Also, I would definately agree with the other reviewer. The overall cord is way too long. The VMSS controller is also too close to the headset. I usually don't clip it on, or if I do, just onto my shirt sleeve.They sound awesome, they're really lightweight (I was surprised), and they're really comfortable. They feel well-built, like they'll last a long time. If you're in the market for good headphones, you should consider this pair.

Supreme Sound,

I purchased this headphone set with the specific intent of using them for 3D sound gaming. The VMSS system excels at creating a directional sound in games, you can hear from almost any direction, it's only limitations are from your sound card. I have a Game Blaster Live sound card and I hook the headphones into the jack on my Yamaha speakers & still get the full 3D sound that I would get from a 5.1 speaker system. Then I wanted to transfer my cassette tapes to CD-R's and was highly impressed by the full range of sound from these headphones, it's best to turn off the VMSS system with the handy slider control when listening to music only. If I had an unlimited amount of money to spend on a set of headphones, I would still buy this product.

The VMSS thingy provides very good bass, as if you're using a subwoofer. The range is very wide and the sound reproduction is good at most ranges, but less in the mid range. The overall quality is very good, and the headphones are excellent for home theatre entertainment systems.The VMSS function pretty much drains that one AA battery it uses, and it gets a little bothering from time to time.Also the cord is 5 meters in length, too long in my opinion, but that should be a plus.They are quite comfertable to wear, but could be better.All in all, this is a great buy. The best panasonic cans out there.BUY IT TODAY
