Excellent gift by H. Chen
I bought this as a gift and the person loved them! Excellent sound quality and blocks out noise around as well.
STOP! WorstHeadphones Ever! by Desiree Aultman
After reading all the reviews and high praise that these headphones received, and also after some extensive research (being sure not to purchase the counterfeit headphones), I decided that these were the headphones for me (the review stating the proper use of these headphones is what sold me). Boy was I wrong! First off, the rubber that covers the wire feels very cheap and thin. It’s not durable and within a couple of uses, will easily start to wear and tear. Not good for functionality (especially if you use these headphones for anything from walking to exercise).
Second, the earbuds are not comfortable at all. I tried the smallest earbud covers as I know my ears are small, and couldn’t keep them in for long. It was just irritating (not at all like my sony earbuds). These earbuds felt like they were stretching the inside of my ear. Not at all a comfortable feeling. I did manage to get them in deep enough as to hear the sound and not destroy my ear drum at the same time.
As for the sound. I’m not a connoisseur of music and sound but these headphones add no life to the music. The sound is bland, boring, and flat which makes the music loud and annoying (I mostly listen to rock, but also a wide range of other genres as well). I’ve even tried switching the different equalizer’s on my MP3 player and it gets no better. The headphones are advertised as to have bass but if that’s what they call bass, then they are sadly mistaken. The bass is nothing more than a boost in the low tones of the music. The high tones are way too loud and you can’t even hear the midtones. These headphones are very overrated and sound just like a cheap pair of iPod-like headphones.
These headphones definitely aren’t the ones for me as I like my music to sound as if it’s alive and these headphones don’t do it. Doesn’t mean that these aren’t the headphones for you. If you like flat and boring sound, then by all means, these would be perfect for you. Or (for the objective side) if you like your music loud, these are perfect because they can definitely get loud. And if you’re wondering if I got a counterfeit pair, well then I guess Amazon is selling counterfeits (not accusing of course, just sarcastically making a point on authenticity of headphones) because that’s where I got these from.
If you do decide that these are for you, I have a pair that have only been used five times to test sound and would be glad to sell them to anyone who wants because I think, no, I’m sure I’ve just wasted 45.00 dollars.
The best earbuds ever. by Alexander S. Funk
These earbuds stay in my ears, are comfortable, they sound amazing, and are simply the best earbuds ever. Who would pay $300 for earbuds that sound no better than these? That’s silly. These rock. Buy these.
If you want bang for your buck this doesnt get any better. by Brian Woodward
Strong bass that isnt muddy, no distortion, crystal clear highs and excellent mids. The provided rubber fittings are a perfect match, these do not fall out of my ears at all, they are nice and snug.
Under $30 with express shipping on Amazon. $89.99 at Circuit City. This is a no brainer. I borrowed a pair of Bose Earbuds from my friend. He paid $100.00 from Bose and these are WAY better. I am very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend these to anyone looking for an earbud style headphone for your portable music player.
I use an iPod Nano Video and it reacts well to the different EQ settings I have for each type of music. I was using the garbage stock headphones that Apple provide and this is a 5000% improvement over those. Thumbs Up!
