No matter what you’re listening to while walking the streets, the freebie earphones smartphones makers supply for free don’t tend to offer great sound reproduction, so it is always worth upgrading to make sure you are making the most of your music collection.
Thanks to John Lewis Electricals, we’ve got a pair of Monster DNA on-ear headphones to give away. They offer a noise-isolating, snug fit cushions over the ears to block out that annoying background hum, and when you do need to make a call, ControlTalk on the cable lets you slip between your music and a call with ease.
The headphones are also foldable, so although they may not be as portable as some earphones, then can be packed away with a minimum of fuss.
All you need to do to enter is follow us on Twitter (@thedescrier), like us on Facebook, and make a comment below telling us why you need some new headphones.

I don’t have any headphones,I would love them :)
The cable on my previous headphones is worn out therefore cutting out on the left can, these would be a great replacement. Thank you :)
These would be great, when I wear mine running I only get every few seconds worth of sound, soooooooooo frustrating!
I’ve just started a new job with a long commute on public transport – I need to be entertained!
I would be a happy monster if i owned these
Would love to win these for my 16 year old daughter, she loves her music :)
My old headphones have broken.
Because my current noise cancelling headphones are more like noise enhancing headphones. Would love to try a pair of headphones that actually upholds its ‘noise cancelling’ promise.
I would love some headphones so that I don’t have to listen to Winx on my daughters computer 20 times a day!
I need a new pair because I haven’t a clue where my hubby put mine and he swears he didn’t touch them
Because mine are falling apart…
my daughter keeps taking mine, sonever have them when I want them
I need some headphones so I can listen to my music and programs in peace without having to hear my husband’s crappy music on the TV.
I’d like to win these so that I can hear the TV at night!!! My teenage daughter likes to play her music very loudly and as her bedroom is below the lounge, I can sing along it’s that loud!!
I need these to do my music justice!
I don’t have any decent head phones – just the bud phones I received with my iPod and they hurt my ears and keep falling out!
I would welcome a high quality set of earphones as in our house there is always so much going on, people walking in and out, a tv in every room, Xbox, playstation, need I say more so these would enable me to listen in peace to my music and relax after a hard days work.
These headphones are GORGEOUS!! I want them I want them I want them!! :-D
My son needs new headphones and his 18th birthday is coming up x
If I heard that I had won, it would be music to my ears
i would love to win because i have never owned a pair :)
Mines are goosed.
I am a massive music fan, really its like I’m a music hoarder, so these would be ideal for me
I have never owned a pair but would love to listen to my music with them
To drown out the squabbling of 4 children and drift away to a relaxing place would be amazing
I,m in need of some phones for my head to keep me in tune
Because I would give them to my son for when he’s on his PC and that would stop me going mad!
because I have cheap in-ear ones at the moment and would love a good pair that don’t hurt my ears
I should win the headphones as my Missus says I play my music too loud, this would solve the problem and I could play my tunes as loud as I like.
My Daughter has now hidden hers so as I cant use them :(
I just got a new iPod and need some great headphones to go with it
because they are gorgeous
I would give them to my hubby then I don’t have to listen to the horrible music he listens to :)
because Music is my Life I love listening to a wide genre/variety of music but sadly so does every one else in my family as I do not own a decent pair of headphones, it would be brilliant if I could be right within a orchestra, concert. musical, or opera and have the experience of being there in my own little world with these amazing headphones :)
Because i need some headphones :)
