The WS55s may not make a comfortable fit for everyone, but they do sound really good for the money.
The good: The ATH-WS55 Solid Bass over-ear headphones offer impressive sound for less than $100, with tight, punchy bass and very good detail. They also seem well built, and are fairly compact and lightweight for an over-ear model.
The bad: No inline remote/mic for making cell phone calls, and the headphones' comfort level doesn't match their performance.
The bottom line: While they may not offer the perfect fit for everyone, the ATH-WS55 Solid Bass headphones offer impressive sound for the money.
