    Got my lovely manly pink headphones today.

    Debating now to swap them for the Sony ones on the CPW site. Still at 29.99 in store so 20 cheaper than IT7X2. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated as to which is better.
    The colour doesn't bother me too much at all but would rather have the better headphones

    The IT7's seem the better product over all but the Sony's are great kit for the money. They both have the same functionality as far as I can see.

    I am not a fan of the on ear cans. I like when the pad encloses the ear for comfort, but they are a great buy for €29.99

    Just got them started up there. Very happy with them for 50 bob.

    Decent enough sound, bit bassy and slight leakage. For 50 ya cannot go wrong for a wireless set of headphones, especially when compared to the dearer brands.

    Delighted with them. The pink isn't that strong, they aren't glossy. Sounds is outstanding. Arguably better and more comfortable than my 150 euro seinnheisers.

    They're not red. I'd ignore the third one. They don't really look like that.

    I do get that, but there appears to be two types of Pink on the site. I bought a pair as a present and it definitly seems pinker than what you have there.

    Great great sound out of them though. have been tempted by them all week.

    Delighted with mine, I agree they are definitely PINK. Sound is great. Now I want to get a thingy that will let me use them to hear TV.

    Pantone chart number PMS 812 2x seems to match mine exactly. http://limecitydesign.com/resources#/pantone

    No joy on the thingy to get headphone TV - one of the electrical retailers proposed a solution to make my TV "smart" but costing 90 yoyos! Ah, well.
