5 out of 5 stars Great for running!   March 17, 2010
L Paul (Fort Wayne, IN)
I bought these headphones to use while running after doing some research on here and noticed that they were highly rated. I couldn't be more pleased with them. No more fumbling with headphones while I'm running. They are comfortable, they stay in place, and they sound great.


4 out of 5 stars The full rundown   March 16, 2010
Steve Sanchez (San Diego, CA United States)
I read a lot of the reviews before buying, they were helpful, but there were a few things I don't recall seeing. I always assume the more expensive the better, but these suprised me. I'v owned high end Bose, Sony, Sennheiser, not saying these are the same, but for the price they are incredibly clear. The highs and mids come through crisp.

The cord on one end is perfect, and you may not see in the pic, but it is a threaded cord, not rubber, which is great because I have had other cords chewed on by cats and even my toddle in the past.

The fit is a little tight because these are non-adjustable, the reflective part of the band in the back is flexible so that is how it adjusts, otherwise you are stuck with one size fits all. And it isn't really all that reflective.

The foam on the earpiece is so comfortable, it is like a stiff foam, it does not seem like it will start crumbling apart or peeling. I use there exclusively for exercising, and these do not make my ears sweaty at all, even when I am dripping in it.

The only reason I gave four stars is because, and I did not see this anywhere, they are open air. That means anyone around you can hear what you are listening, I mean word for word. I would not have bought these for that reason. I have guilty plessure for some music like anyone may (Lady Gaga) and I don't want people hearing what I am listeing to, but they will. You just have to consider how loud the music in the gym is, or if you are outside even better. But I figure with so many other people wearing theres, they may not hear yours. I know this open design is for increased airflow (eliminate sweat) and increse the bass (which it does) so you get to take the good with the bad.

They sound good, look good, the threaded cord on one side is perfect, the foam is very comfortable but stern, but that open air design suck, but for the price I am going to keep then. The price is just to good not to keep them, even if I look for high end models later. If these were closed ear, that would have been it for me, score. But, these are good, really good, you will be suprised because the price, but get them, they are better than the price being asked.



2 out of 5 stars Great while they last!   March 13, 2010
bellnbanjo (pittsburgh)
I have purchased two of these. They have good sound and a nice, comfortable fit, but each set has lasted less than three months. On one, the plug went bad, so that it jiggles out of contact when I move. On the other, the left earpiece has lost its sound, so they are no longer stereo. I am going to try something else.


5 out of 5 stars Great Buy!   March 10, 2010
Kirk Larsen
This is my second pair of these headphones that I have owned. I wanted a pair of headphones that I could wear at work for long periods of time which wouldn't mess up my hair. I looked around for a long time before deciding to purchase these both times and I simply could not find a better value or anything that suited my needs better.

Pros:
High Quality Cord (not cheap plastic)
Cord on one side only
High quality sound
Great value for the price
Behind the neck style will not mess up your hair
Snug fit. They do not fall off or move around easily

Cons:
A tad too tight for my taste.



2 out of 5 stars Sound is only ok, comfort is great   March 6, 2010
Faast (Lost Angeles, CA)
The behind the ear isnt for everyone but its pretty comfortable if you are active. Really stays in place while jogging or biking. i really liked the "pull" resistance. But, the sound quality disappoints. It has to do with the fact that it doesnt seal in the sound to your ear contour nor that it just doesnt put out great sound - even if you press the headphones to your ear.

very promising, but could be better.
