Very very flat sounding. Even messing with the EQ in Winamp for 5 minutes I can't get them to sound "clean/clear".I'm promptly returning them, oh well.-editOMG!!! The Sennheiser EH-150 came in today that were going to replace the Labetcs. The EH-150 totally OWN compared to these Labtecs!!!! Amazon, please remove the Labtec Elite 835 from your line up, they are very, very, very, very, sub-par!
