Bad quality I have own these twice, The first it last me over a year...the second time they only last me 2 months. The right side doesn't work as of this morning. A little pricey for the quality. February 13, 2013
cheapest construction I've seen in awhile owned less than a month, the glue that held the circuit board to the speaker driver after less than a month came loose. the cord gets stiff as soon as it gets cold out inflexible unwilling to move and all the construction on it is very shoddy I would not recommend for anyone to purchase. you're much better spending a few more bucks and upgrading to a better quality headphones. Sony next time do not use glue to add to hear your circuit boards to your drivers you're smarter than that use your experience in electronics January 22, 2013
Love them I am an avid Sigur Ros fan, so great sounding ear buds are necessary. These do the job perfectly. Any ear buds that can transform such a deep sound into my ears wonderfully are great in my book. Plus, at 6 months, it's the longest ear buds of mine have ever lasted. October 6, 2012
Great! I am an audiophile and love great sound! I bought these because my iPhone headphones broke (after about a year they fell apart and the wire became greasy... yuck!). I have a more expensive pair of Sony earbuds that I love and went around listening to anyone who would let me try their earbuds (gross). Skull Candy are way too bright and harsh, Auvio have a distorted airy sound with little bass... as two examples. I didn't want to spend $100 so didn't listen to Klipsch... the $100 Bose didn't sound or feel right to me in my ear. Beats were surprisingly harsh and fatiguing tho I like the way they are made. What I noticed is that these and the other pair of Sony earbuds I own have a fuller bass without sounding strident on top. Quite a nice rolled off treble (helped further by selecting the Reduce Treble EQ on the iPhone). But they are very listenable without EQ and I am very happy with them. I listen to them every day and cannot justify spending more as far as sound is concerned... but I do wish they were a bit more substantial. I tried the $100 Sony balanced armature buds this weekend because they look very attractive and their wires are thicker, but found them too forward and bright. Regardless of price, I prefer these cheap earbuds and think they are quite amazing sounding! I will continue listening for a better sounding product but will happily enjoy these as I do. July 5, 2012
