"The Status Audio CB-1s might be the best headphones under $100...cheaper and better than the Audio Technica M50"
"They're affordable and ruggedly built, and the sound quality is as good as I've heard for the money"
"Status Audio's CB-1s are the Most Comfortable Over-Ear Headphones I've Worn"
After a pair of 20yo Sennheisers were damaged beyond repair, I'm happy to report these already sound great without having broken them in yet. Some friends are in the market, tried these, and equally-blown away by the quality, esp at this price! Highly recommended🤘🏾 Keep it up Status.

Great sound & confortable!
Best headphones I’ve ever had imo! Super clear, super sharp, and very comfortable. I’ve been hearing things in songs I’ve been listening to for years that I have never heard before! Absolutely love them!!!
THE BASS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR IN WIRED HEADPHONES
EXCELLENT PRICE
I got a pair of these out of curiosity. I am blown away by how good they are. I'm a recording studio owner. I have some expensive top of the line head phones. I am just as impressed with sound of these. I've ordered two more pairs and can't wait to get them.

The CB-1 headphones are “over-ear”, a.k.a. “circumaural” headphones. They completely enclose the ear, and will reduce the amount of outside noise that can leak in. They are extremely comfortable for long-term use.
Yes, the CB-1 earpads are removable. We don't recommend the use of aftermarket pads. If you are in need of replacement OEM earpads, please contact us.
Yes. If you are having trouble removing the cables from the headphone, please note there is a locking mechanism - a quarter turn clockwise will lock them, and a quarter turn counter-clockwise will unlock them.
You can use just about any 3.5mm cable with the CB-1, but it will not have the locking mechanism of the original cable.
