FiiO Snowsky Wind Over Ear Headphones (Pink)

I am no audiophile, so this review is purely based on my experience with these as compared to some entry level IEMs, bluetooth Denon in ears and some wireless overhead Skull Candy. I decided to pair these with my new Fiio CP13 cassette player for that real reto feel to my music. In the box you get the headphones with a 3.5mm standard jack and two pairs of ear sponges. The orange provide not just the retro look, but they also offer a more retro listening style, lower bass, a little more hiss (which is good in my search for that old school experience), better higher end and good mid range sound. The lows, while still present, are more muted than with the black sponges which reverse the listening experience and give you a deeper, smoother experience where the low end bass and mid range are more present. The headphones are very light weight and are made of a mix of plastic and aluminium, the chord is braided and these are never going to be something you can just throw around, you will have to look after them. That said, the quality is still good enough that if you do look after them, they should last a while. I have tried these with lossless music through a DAC and AMP, they will never replace a nice pair of IEMs, but they still sound good and for the price, they are amazing value. With good sound which can be tailored with the sponges, feel comfortable and really are quite adaptable allowing you to get both that modern vibe and the retro sound and look.

These are very light so they're comfortable. There is a surprisingly rich bass tone. I bought them to wear in work. No noise cancellation and I need to hear if someone is speaking to me. Great for these purposes and I think for price they're a good pair of headphones

I’m really impressed with these retro headphones. The retro design looks great and feels like a throwback, especially paired with wired devices. They’re extremely comfortable, even during long listening sessions, and the foam ear covers feel soft on the ears. The sound quality is really good for the price, clear, well-balanced, and more than good enough for music, movies, and audiobooks. I use them regularly with my iPod, when watching DVDs on my portable DVD player, and for listening to audiobooks on my phone, and they perform consistently well across all of them. I wanted a wired pair that would be comfortable and lightweight for long listening sessions, but without noise cancellation so I am still aware of my surroundings. Those meet these criteria perfectly. They came with a spare pair of foam covers. If you’re looking for affordable, comfortable, wired headphones with a cool retro look and great sound, these are an good recommendation.

Given the price point, you can't go wrong with these. I'm no audiophile but the sound quality seems to be excellent and they are so light - and comfortable - you may forget you're actually wearing them. Don't mistake this as comment as 'cheap build' - they are not flimsy but designed to be light-weight and wearable for long periods. I've been using over-the-ear, noise cancelling Bluetooth headphones for a while now and apart from constant recharging headaches, I've realised they have also been giving me actual headaches. I'm now permanently switching back to these retro wired headphones for all my out-and-about music needs. Would thoroughly recommend.

Price point and form factor taken into account, they're very nice. You get what you pay for, and they weigh basically nothing. Been using them constantly as something I can use continuously when out and about without closing my ears off to the world or sacrificing audio quality too much. Bass is lacking and clarity isn't amazing, but they are £15 and that is part of the cost/value proposition. I also love the look of these, but that is completely subjective. There aren't many on-ear options at this price point, and I'm really very happy with these.

Excellent little headphones. Sound quality is amazing got them for use with my ipod and record player. Sound quality with both is amazing. Super lightweight feels like I'm not wearing anything. Could be delicate.

Good sound for the price , after many years experimenting with in ear , wired or Bluetooth, full headphones wired or Bluetooth, for me personally these wired lightweight over ear ( old school ) headphones are a very happy solution to listening when out walking , not had them long so only time will tell if they are made well .

Someone commented that these sound virtually as good as Koss KPH40s. Well everyone is entitled to their opinion, but no, no, no, these don't have any of the renowned presence and warmth of the Koss KPH40s. These have a sound that is rather dry and sterile in comparison, and EQ won't magically fix that. Anyone who owns both and can switch between them in an instant will, I imagine, confirm what I say. Yes, the headband-build and the overall appearance & durability are great, especially at the sub £20 price I paid. But no, being half the price of a pair of Koss 40s doesn't make them a good substitute. They're just ok. Depends what you want them for I guess. Judged for what they are, a very low price pair of retro walkman-style headphones for use while out jogging, they're absolutely fine. Mine will be relegated to night use with my DAB radio. Still very good value for that sort of use.

Ofereix bona qualitat d'àudio i són molt còmodes, lleugers i queden molt bé per sobre la orella. S'ajusta molt bé a la mida del cap amb els nivells de regulació que porta.

son ligeros, se escuchan bien bajos, agudos. Traen los dos colores de almohadillas. No apretan.

Zeer fijn om te dragen. En prima geluid. Verrassend goed.

These have a proper clear resolving sound when you drive them through anything less of an ant's power (aka the Snowsky player). The moment you put these on proper DAP output higher than these couple milliwatts these start to crack in their output resolve. Cheap junk.

I can't tell you what they're supposed to sound like, but they work really well compared to my in ears. I use them with my snowsky echo mini. I use them comfortably with or without a baseball cap on too.
