5 out of 5 stars "Soundly Perfect"...for a "Good Price"...REAL CHEAP!   August 13, 2008
etech (Vancouver, WA USA)
I just purchased the headphones, about 3 months ago. Sorry Amazon.com, but I did not purchase them from you guys. I got them from a Retailer..I WILL NOT GIVE OUT THE NAME...
Anyway...
I have no clue as to why you other people are "DISSING" or "Down grading" these headphones. I find them to be SOUNDLY PERFECT, in all ranges of sound frequency, if by any chance they will FAIL...Guess Waht?...I am gonna buy another set of them, from the same place.
ALso...
If I had the chance to purchase these from Amazon.com...I WOULD!...But I chose not to do this, as to "SAVE MONEY" on shipping cost.
If your "PARTICULAR" set of these headphones are "FAILING"...Then...Maybe...you people need to look as to how you are "TREATING" the headphones.
In other words...Do you "TRASH" your car?...If you don't then, why do you try to trash these headphones?...Use them respectfully, they will last a long time.
I have very cheap stuff, that I have paid "LESS THAN" the "NAME BRAND" or "HIGH QUALITY"...And guess what?....My cheap stuff is ACTUALLY OUT LASTING THE NAME BRAND OR HIGH QUALITY stuff...Good example..I have a VERY CHEAP VHS tape video recorder and a High Quality Name Brand model. The cheap one is still working after 12 years, the name brand is in the garbage dump or A.K.A. Land Fill...It died after 4 years...
So the answer to my story...
Treat your stuff with respect, and it will last a life time.........

This is a great little set of headphones. They are light weight and easy to wear. I listen to books with them day after day and have never had a problem.


1 out of 5 stars Piece of junk   May 3, 2008
S. Lapha (Cocoa, Florida USA)
I bought this to use with one of my mp3 players as a backup set. Well just like my other pair of Coby headphones, the plug doesn't fit right and if you don't hold it just right only one side works. Cheap but Cheap!


4 out of 5 stars terrific for price   March 2, 2008
Dusty (Portland, OR United States)
I was at the library one day and asked reference if any of the
computers had headphones. She pulled out a pair of plastic bagged
headphones, brand new, and offered them to me for $5. She
smiled and said "you could use whatever computer you want then."
They were Coby CVH42.
I brought them home and they are better than some I paid four times
more for. I am sitting here as I type this, listening to a Baroque
radio station on iTunes. Music sounds great.
Spend $60 and up, but these are great for just some computer
stuff e.g. iTunes, YouTube etc............whatever.
The only draw back is the cord is not very long. I pull it out
constantly.



2 out of 5 stars Are you kidding??? Good sound from a $5 pair of headphones???   March 3, 2007

Com'on folks...let's be real here. The Coby CV-H42 headphones may have decent sound for a pair of cheap headphones, but com'on...they're only $5 or less. I've tried them on a non-amplified computer monitior at work, and they sound decent. The bass is average at best. If these have a 40mm driver, then I'd hate to hear what a smaller one in a Coby set would sound like.

I've also tried them on my at-home 5.1 amplified PC set-up and they distort way too easily. The bass distorts at almost the slightest bit of bass.

And I concur with those who say that it's a roll of the dice to get a good working pair, as the left-speaker in my set is a bit weak.

I mean let's face it...these are some pretty cheap headphones...if you want a cheap, but great sounding pair of headphones, you better look to a set in the $15+ range. Take for instance the KOSS KTX-PRO 1 Titaniums for $18 here on Amazon. They're sold for upwards of $45 at retailers like Radio Shack. And from all the glowing reviews, they're a hellava set of headphones.

I gave this set 2-stars only because they're decent for a cheap pair, but for audiophiles, stear clear.
