Reference headphones.

The top-line model RH600s use a specially designed, high performance driver with a thin, responsive 40mm diaphragm coupled with a high output neodymium magnet and sophisticated circuitry to provide true "reference quality" audio. Its ambient open-ear design with special acoustic mesh fabric ensures clear, transparent sound and a comfortable listening experience. The RH600s also feature a very wide dynamic range and a linear frequency response from 20Hz to 22kHz for accurate, balanced audio reproduction.

"Best bang for your buck if you're looking for open-ear headphones."

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I'm quite happy with these cans -- they cost less than half as much as the headphones I might be tempted to replace them with, and I just can't bring myself to pay twice as much money for a minor improvement in quality.
Sound
The sound is quite good, with bass frequencies extending well into the low ranges that many headphones can't reach, and a flatter frequency response than closed-ear designs are capable of delivering.
Features
The earpads are soft, without obscuring the sound, and the self-adjusting headband is very comfortable.
Quality
The RH600 is quite well made, but it's not made specifically to take a lot of abuse. Don't kick it around or hack at it with sharp objects, and it should last several years.
Value
Compared to other headphones in the same (even much higher) price range, these ones deliver the sound quality you'll need to make your music sound its best.
Manufacturer Support
I've never had a problem with them, but they do make a few very cheap mics that are sold at rediculously low prices -- stay away from those products.
The Wow Factor
The comfort of the materials is quite nice, and my friends are invariably jealous when they try them out. Several of my friends have rushed out to buy their own after trying mine.

Musical Style:

electronic, engineering for a variety of styles (mostly rock and folk)
