I've been in the market for a new pair of headphones for a while now, as my giant bean did a fatality to my precious Skullcandy Skullcrusher's some time ago. I'm not made of money, not by a long shot, so investing in another pair of high end head phones is out of the question. But luckily I made a pit stop to HMV where I ran into a cute sales associate while browsing their piss poor head phone selection, maybe it was commission, but she was more then happy to help me. I told her of my skullcandy woes and she pointed me towards these humble looking EarPollution CS40's, meh I'll give them a shot, anything is better then these earbuds I'm using that sound like soda cans. "Pink or black?" she says,(oh god, anything but pink) I pick up the black pair and I'm off to my man cave!
Now these things are small but for 25 bucks with the purchase of any 2 CD's (bargain bin dead media), you can't go wrong! They don't look like they can pump any bass at all, but boy was I wrong, tuned to some In Flames and I was rockin'. All in all, these head phones are a steal, are freaking loud and have a good amount of bass. The steel head band and the no fuss compact design make them perfect for every day use, or easy transport to a LAN party without being a burden.
My only beef would be the lack of a braided cable, but if you can look past that these are a great bang for your buck, if you're in the market for some good ear bleeders for gaming or otherwise, stop by your local HVM and pick up a pair, tell em Grug sent ya. Well, time to bitch slap some head crabs, I hear you now you face humpers!
