I can't believe it!
I hate headphones and earphones. The music never sounded good or they bothered my ears, or they made my ears too hot, etc. I had to get something to keep things a little more quiet around the house, especially at night. After researching like a mad man, I decided to give these a chance. I bought them to connect to my computer.....I never thought I would be an Ipod person (more on that in a second). I like to listen to music while I am online, and did not want to wake up my wife or kids. These are just the thing. They really should be called ear speakers, because they sound amazing. The sound quality that you get is really good. I was amazed. I bought from a different source, only because of personal issues with J&R, they worked out to about the same price.....about $200. A steal! I like them so much that I am now researching what kind of mp3 player to buy......BECAUSE of these earspeakers! You do not have to have them very loud, and they block outside noise very well. My wife can talk to me from 2 feet away, and volume is not that high, andI need to remove one ear piece to hear what she is saying. After 5 minutes of first wearing them, I forgot I had them on. The carry pouch is a nice touch, as are the extra pieces. It is hard for me to judge the quality of materials, but everything seems good, and I am not afraid of breaking anything. Buy them and enjoy the music as I am. I am very happy with my purchase.....after using them for a while, I found something that others may not like. When properly placed, it feels like your ears are clogged....almost like when you get water in your ears. It is a strange feeling to get used to, but the sound is so good, that I quickly forget about it and am into the music (as I am right now). As far as breakage goes, well, sure they are delicate, they go into your ear canal. Treat them like a $200 set of earspeakers and you should have no problem with them......treat them like the headphones that you get on a plane and prepare for repairs. :-)
Perfect for Traveling
My primary purpose for these headphones was for superior portable fidelity. These headphones exceeded all expectations.
I really love these in ear buds
The sound range is fantastic. If you are looking for ear shaking booming bass, this is not for you. That being said the bass is there all the way down to about 10Hz. You just hear it and don't "feel" it. The Mids and His are exceptional; the sound is warm but tight. Sound Staging is what you would expect from in ear phones. The sound isolation is awesome, my bus ride to work in the morning is completely silent. Planes are quieted down to a very low rumble. Lastly, construction, these are very nice headphones and rightly so should not be thrown on the floor of you 1980 ford pickup and stepped on. I take them with me almost everywhere, they spend a good amount of time in my pocket or backpack without any case and I have had no problem with them in the 6 months I have had them.
