Blew me away!

I've been an audiophile for life, once I heard the quality of these headphones, I must say that the Bang & Olufsen sound quality i…Read mores just what it is, Quality! People on here are complaining about the bass, the thing about B&O, the reproduced sound is the sound that was meant to be heard, no overkill, no undertone. I rate this a 5 star, if I could I would put a hundred. Mix B&O with a Mac and or iPod, you can't go wrong. Design, form and function! Enjoy this work of art!

Bang & Olufsen Form 2 Headphones
Balanced Design & Quality.

After having the apple in-ear headphones for about three years, I felt the need to change headphones, and I found these and it was…Read more love at first sight.
They may look very delicate, but they're pretty durable and the sound is amazing, it's like rediscovering my entire music collection.
Two cons: not meant for very long-term use, as they tend to hurt after a while, and the bass isn't as strong as I'd like it to be, but that's passable with the level of quality in sound.(7 of 7 people found this review useful)

Bang & Olufsen Form 2 Headphones
Open Yourself Up To A Bold New World.
Written by BF from New York
Nov 11, 2005
I have spent a number of years in the consumer electronics industry. During that time I've worked in most sectors; from sales of …Read morepersonal electronics, competition car stereo, and high end audiophile products (REL, Sonus, Krell, Meridian, NOT Bose, Yamaha, Sony et al) all the way to running my own Home Theater consulting company. During that time I’ve heard many different sounds and listened to a very diverse collection of music. I carry a reputation for having an excellent ear yet a careful price conscious selection. In my opinion B&O has a certain reputation for beautiful design but generally at the sacrifice of your wallet and frankly your ears. This particular product in no way follows that trend. The Form-2’s light crystalline sound and atmosphere is fantastic from the first second you place them on your head. Of particular note is their incredibly smooth yet life-like mid range response. If you're into vocals or jazz you won't know what hit you! Their bass separation is fabulous, clean, deep and accurate. The complexity of Kelis’s baseline is apparent and felt! Singing above everything is a finely detailed treble sector – high hats shimmer and resonant tones are audible. A notable benefit is that these headphones are very efficient thus unlike most Sony’s or other larger headphones in this price range are able to get quite a high level of volume out of an iPod and, unlike the standard iPod ear bud headphones, they can actually handle and sustain that volume. In terms of comfort they are okay. They are light, and effectively encapsulate the user in sound, but are a little tight on my head. My co-worker tried them on however, and I nearly didn’t get them back. For $100 bucks overall, they are a really fantastic value and will open up a new world of musical enjoyment to all iPod users.

For $100, Very Pleased
Written by NT from Fayetteville

I love these. I took a chance buying the Form 2 because there are limited reviews, due to how rare these are. I am listening to …Read moreAgualung right now and these headphones bring out another demension, not herd in my Sennheiser PXC150. Bass is good but not amazing, because they are not closed ear. They look and feel great, very clean look. Only two negatives. One, is that others will enjoy your music at high volumes. Two, the cord is long and had buy the Sumajin Smartwrap to fix the problem.

For different reasons I purchased Bose QC2, Bose QC3, Ultimate Ears super.fi 5 Pro, B&O Form 2, Bose In Ear, V-Moda vibe. (in that…Read more order)
I ranked it with comment. This is just my personal opinion.
1. Ultimate Ears super.fi 5 Pro (+ best sound, comfort, base, fit, noise cancelling via tight seal; - hard to carry, fragile, rubbing noise when you run wit it) *If I can only own one this is it.
2. Bose QC3 (+great noise cancelling, sound quality, base; -gets hot around ear, weak battery life, need to carry a charger)
3. B&O A8 (+ clear sound, gorgeous form, comfort, durability, craftmanship; -ok base, no noise cancelling)
4. Bose QC2 (+same great bose sound quality, base: - ear gets REALLY hot, big and ugly design - I feel like a dork when I wear it)
5. Bose In ear (+adequate sound step up from apple, comfortable, convenient placement; -weak base)
6. B&O form 2 (+BO sound quality, decent base, style; - not very comfortable, not somthing you want to use it outside, not made for noise cancelling)
7. V-Moda vibe (+cheap; -not refined sound, gastly distorted base, ill fit in ears, waste of money, save money and keep the apple headphone)(312 of 495 people found this review useful)
