I have been looking for a decent headphone amplifier. Something to practice with while watching tv or that won't bother my wife while she's watching tv. Actually I've gotten a couple different brands, then I tried one of the Vox Amplug (the "metal" one). It has a great tone, only one, but it's a great one! Lol! Anyway, I was hoping this would be even easier and might have a little more range. Sadly it is much more like other headphone amps, sterile, generic tone. It may have something to do with the headphones themselves, since I use a good quality set of earbuds with the Amplug. These have sat in my cupboard since i got them.

After readying a lot of mixed reviews on this product, I decided to give them a shot anyways, and I can honestly say they are just awesome. I played my Silvertone Session Master (Dimebucker Bridge, EMG H4A Neck) and it sounded beautiful, it really blew me away after reading people saying that the tone was generic and sterile I just felt like they where complete tone snobs. Then I plugged in my baby Dean Dime from Hell ML(crappy stock pickups) and it sounded god awful fizzy ugly and it just plain hurt. I LOVE the headphones themselves though very comfortable and very nice sounding defiantly worth 100 bucks. Plus it can get some neat tones out of these things, to a clean crunchy plexi sound to a somewhat high gain Judas Priest, also the louder you have them the better it sounds of course, the bass response comes out way better when turned up. Im in love, can take my guitar anywhere and can practice anywhere now. Would buy em again.

I'd happily lay out another $100 for these if they had workable slider controls on them. Pokey little dial wheels with microscopic labels are impossible to manage on your head. Otherwise, they're freakin' awesome; great sound.

I really like my VOX AmphoneLead. The effects are cool, the headphone sound quality is very good. The AMPHONES are extremely useful when you are hit with the sudden urge to jam or just practice late at night. I'm sure my family and neighbors are grateful.

PROS: nice sound quality, easy to use-just plug directly into your guitar jack, multiple amp effects.

CONS: controls are somewhat annoying to access, especially if you are tweaking the effects to your liking. I suggest writing down settings that work for you so that you can set them up faster should you make changes. The headphones are somewhat delicate and use cheap plastic, but if you are careful you should not have any problems.

Overall, they serve their purpose by providing a private environment in which to practice. I think the concept is a great idea.

I love these amp headphones. I live in a townhouse and have a newborn so I can't turn up my amps and jam. With work, a long commute and baby, the only time I have to play is late at night. I had been keeping my noise to myself by plugging headphones into an old Behringer V-amp. When it is late at night that rig could be too complicated to set up with too many wires and cords laying around. The Vox Amphone Lead sounds just as good as the setup I was using but eliminates all the cords except the output cable. The headphones are battery powered so you are not tied down to one location. You are free to play anywhere you please. You can even use the headphones for your phone or MP3 player.

My only complaint is that they don't feel very durable. The Vox Amphones are very light weight, which is a good feeling sitting on my head, but make feel like they are overly delicate. Overall, these are a great sounding product at a good price. The Vox Amphones lived up to my expecations.
