High Quality Sound, Low Quality Construction. Recommended because of value. [Posted on 2007-10-04]
I bought these because I dj, but I didn't want to purchase expensive headphones, just ones with good sound. These headphones were very impressive when I received them. The sound was very crisp and the bass was impressive. They would even handle the enormous wattage that my mixer would dump into them. The construction looked solid, they were comfortable and convenient to use (thanks to their reversible cup). Plus, they look great.
I figured I'd by two of these, in case one broke or got lost rather than an expensive Sony which would cost three times as much. After several months, the first set I used stopped functioning properly: one cup stopped producing sound. I then reverted to my backup which worked great for several months before the plastic snapped as I was taking them off.
I don't regret my purchase, because that was the plan. I would use them until they broke. If I had paid several times more for expensive headphones, I may have broken those or lost those as well (it's hard to say). One thing that I really am thankful for is the convenience that two of these provide vs. one expensive pair. At one point I lent the headphones to a friend who didn't give them back to me for several weeks, so having that back-up was a huge convenience.
In summary: The sound is very impressive and comparable to higher end headphones, but the construction is lacking. If you are the type of person who is prone to losing things or if you are afraid of breaking more expensive headphones, these are for you.
Lousy Headphones [Posted on 2008-10-07]
I bought these headphones and looked foward to receiving them. When they came in, I checked them out and found that one side was several times louder than the other side. I contacted the dealer and got know response. I contacted the Gemini Website and got no response. My advise is to steer clear of these headphones and the dealer I got mine from.
