Fall out of ear
By BillyVerified Reviewer from Montclair, NJ on 4/12/2008
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Cons:
Don't stay in ears
Describe Yourself:
Avid Listener
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The sound quality is fine, and I can use them around the house. But don't fit well in the ear, so frustrating to use them on the move (gym, jogging). Supplied Apple buds fit better.

These little earbuds have awesome sound. I never imagined I could get such good bass tones in a 'bud phone. They really do provide a tight seal in the ear as well and perform well at blocking out the outside noise. A great value for the price! The only downside is that the sound of the cord jangling around while I run can become echo-ey inside the earbud if I don't secure the cord inside of my clothing. An easily fixed caveat.

Sound is directed right into the ear so music can't be heard from people next to you. If you've ever been on a plane and you could hear the guy across the aisle blasting his iPod, you know what I mean.

They sound great. I have tried the three different size buds for the earpiece. They just don't stay in which surprises me. My iPod earphones and most basic earphones fit. I had my wife, friend and son try as well. Still fall out with the slightest movement. Only with the small size does it stay for a few minutes before falling out. That's if you cram it down your ear canal.

Silicon is the best
By Just a FriendVerified Reviewer from Rye, NY on 3/2/2008
How long have you owned it:
One-to-three months
Pros:
Great Sound

Primary use:

Bottom Line:

The fit of the headphones is better than most with several silicon options. Better fit reduced the penetration of outside noise and improves comfort.

 
Nice Buds
By GOTSIG from New Hampshire Seacoast on 1/7/2008
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Pros:
Easy To Set Up, Great Sound, Reliable Performance, Simple Controls
Best Uses:
Gym / Working Out, Sports
Describe Yourself:
Audiophile
Primary use:
Personal
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Just picked them up today and I am very pleased with the fit and sound. Three sizes of adapters for different size ears make them a sure fit for almost everyone. Volume adjust on the wire is convenient for when the mp3 player is tucked away.
