Customer Reviews
Comfy, great sensitivity and sound!
These earbuds like most other sound isolating earbuds I have tried can be annoying to wear if you are moving around a lot. Since the earbuds make a tight seal inside your ear, any movement in the cable will be conducted through to your ears. Therefore, I would not recommend these for wearing during a workout. This is not a fault of these earbuds alone but every pair that I have ever tried, so I will not knock these earbuds on that basis. That being said these are great earbuds, just don't buy them for jogging.
The sensitivity of these buds is much better than my standard iPod earbuds and several other aftermarket earbuds that I have tried (Panasonic, Altec Lansing, Phillips). I have probably tried 5 or so different sets of earbuds in the $20-$40 range over the last few years and after a little break-in time and finding the right size gel pad (3 sizes are included) to fit your ears these easily blow them all away. The bass, midrange and high end are all good. These really shine in the bass and low mids compared to most other earbuds and since they are so sensitive you can keep the volume lower and save battery life on your player. You will hear things that you have never heard before in your music, especially if you are using the standard issue buds.
Since there are 3 different gels to choose from as far as fit, these are also more comfortable for long listening sessions then other earbuds I have tried. They also offer good sound isolation, so these are great for work or in a moving vehicle.
They are light in your ears, light on your battery and light on your wallet while providing excellent sound. Give them a little break-in time and you will love them... I did.
Good for the price
If you are going to just sit on a metro train or in a nice setting, this these head phones are great! They come with different sized pieces of elastic that will fit, depending how big your ears are.
My biggest problem with them is that they are not good sound conductors; as in, the material that the cord is made of transfers noises into your ears. This effect is much like when you use two cans and a string to try and talk to someone. I don't see how people are running or walking with this pair in their ears. Every noise of it rubbing against my clothing or bumping against my arm are all transferred to my ears. Watch out for those pieces of elastic, because if you use one of the bigger sizes, it sticks to itself, making a very loud sticking noise in your ears.
But for the price and the quality your getting, it kind of evens out. It does well in blocking out outside noises (like people talking or overwhelming city noise) and in some cases sounds better than the head phones that come with the iPods.
Best Budget Earbuds
These are by far the best earbuds/headphones I've ever purchased. I got these for $10 at a local FYE store and they are totally worth the money. The sounds are very crisp and loud. I literally feel the base of my music (a lot of hard rock and heavy metal). It took some time to figure out which side is left/right. The skullcandy label on the cord splitter is how you tell which side is which. The label is always on the front and from there it is simple to figure out. I've had these for about 2 months and they haven't skipped a beat since. Highly recommended.
