| For the price, the sound is phenomenal. Good base, clear mids and highs. What more do you want? Some reviews have complained about the cloth cords causing excess noise, but I haven't found this to be a problem. It's the nature of earbuds that they amplify any noise caused by rubbing the wires, and in my experience there's no more noise from these cloth covered wires than from plastic wires. The added bonus is that the these cloth wires don't get tangled up in knots. I can't comment on the durability, but they seem pretty well made to me. Then again, they're earbuds, so they're going to be subjected to squishing, pulling, yanking, etc., on a regular basis. For the price, they can't be beat. Personally, I just can't see spending any more money on earbuds to listen to music coming out of an iPod. I know there are "audiophile quality earbuds" out there, but c'mon, "audiophile earbuds" is an oxymoron, because all you're listening to is MP3 quality sound in the first place. Save your money, and buy some real headphones and a real stereo if you care that much about your music. But for portability and casual listening on an iPod, these do the job exceptionally well. |

| After 5 times using them when running on the treadmill, and for no reason, one stopped working. No good quality and difficult to wear when exercising. Do not stay in your ears, so you have to constantly accommodate them. |

| The noise reduction is great but the music quality is very poor. Compared to the original ipod ear phones these sound like an AM transistor radio. |

| I want to start by making sure that I state clearly that the sound quality of these ear buds is the greatest I have ever heard in this price range. Absolutely fantastic. What is unfortunate about these ear buds however is that the cord creates much noise from bouncing around, hitting things, etc. The solution that I found for this problem was to loop the cord up over my ears. The biggest gripe I have with these ear buds though is that my pair only lasted 7 months before the right channel became really "tinny", almost like there was a little piece of metal buzzing over the speaker. I would normally assume that I just got a 'lemon', but my friend purchased an identical pair as I did and his only lasted 4 months before the right channel completely died. It is too bad, because the sound quality really is superb. |

| These are spectacular, lots of ear pieces to find the right fit, stay put even when running on a treadmill. Excellent noise reduction, fit and seem to be really durable. The cords have a cloth like cover so they don't tangle like the ear buds that come with the I Touch. |
