How comfortable is it to wear these headphones?
How comfortable are these headphones since they don't have the pivoting earpieces and in comparison to the beats are the ear cups large enough to cover the whole ear?

How's the cable durability ? , can you easly replace it if broken ?

Answer
The cable durability is actually incredible. Out of curiosity, I took a cable and attempted to quickly 'snap' it to no avail. I was surprised, and wrapped the cable around 2 fingers on each hand and pulled away from each other.
This left me with bruises on my fingers, and a slightly stretched, (functional) cable. I had to place the cable in a vise grip, and wrap it around a pole & pull with a force much stronger than would ever be experienced by the cable in normal conditions to finally separate it.
It is worth saying that the two individual cables which connect the 'control pad' to the headphone cups are notably weaker, but still quite resilient.
SOL does not currently sell replacement cables, but if you damage the current cable you can submit a warranty claim with a receipt and they will put it through their warranty process and send out a new one as a first-time exception.- Answered by Marianne L from Barrie

Do these headphones have noise cancellation?

Best Answer
No they do not have active noise cancelling. However they do a very good job of noise isolation, so they will prohibit you from hearing some noise when you are listening to music.

Answer
These are much better than Solo's. They will not break, and if you break them SOL will replace it for free (unlike Dre.)

How is the voice quality on mic? I spend a lot of time on the phone and trying to find good quality both mic and headset

Answer
The voice quality is very good on these headphones as long as you don't use them outdoors in wind over 5 mph or so. I work on a tugboat and spend a good amount of time on the phone as well, and have had no negative reports of background noise other than when I step outside to use them. As for sound quality, they are awesome. I compared them to the Beats and Soul headphones and they beat both hands down.
