Great sound, bad cord. July 31, 2010
Kristopher M. Byrne (SoCal)
I bought these so I could have a set of earphones that sounded good and were comfortable enough to wear for a straight hour while I'm at the gym, nothing more, nothing less.
When I first received them I was pretty excited.
So I hooked them up to my MP3 player and started to check them out.
If you get them in your ear just right they sound great, a little much on the bass though.
On electronic based music (rap, techno, R&B, etc.) the bass is great, on instrument based music (rock, classical, etc) the bass is a little much.
If you have a good player, you can adjust the bass but not all players allow that.
My biggest gripe with these headphones is the cord splits and gives like 8 inches to go to your left ear and then like 16 inches to go to your right ear.
I don't like the offset design but I understand that some do.
Even so, what's with this huge difference in length?
Unless your head is like 2 feet wide, the cable going over to your right ear will be dangling all limp and goofy looking.
Also, the length to the end where the mini plug is is really too short for anyone my height.
I'm 6'2" and I can't keep my MP3 player in my pocket because THE CORD IS TOO SHORT.
So I have to place it in my waist band while I'm working out, which I guess works but is not ideal.
I just gave them to my wife and she likes to use them with her laptop.
Works great for her, sucks for me.
Bottom line, THEY SOUND GREAT BUT IF YOU ARE 6 FOOT OR TALLER DO NOT BUY THESE.
 "Marginal" sound July 30, 2010
Vintage guy
I bought these headphones because one of my iphone's earbuds stopped working. When I tried them at first I was impressed. The sound was much better than my Iphone's earphones. I have been them using them for one month. I'm not impressed with the cord - it's really cheap. Last night I listened to the same music on my Harman Kardon 730 Twin Powered with the Large Advents - this is vintage home stereo system from the 70s. I was overwhelmed at how much I'm missing with these headphones! In fact, I came to the comclusion that the only reason these sound "good" is because they fit in your ear canal, effectively transferring sound into your hear, as opposed to my old headphones. I'm going to listen to these less and listen to my vintage system more. Therefore, I think that the sound is "marginal."
The bottom line is this: I was listening to $2 headphones that came with my phone (probably actual price to manufacture), and now I listen to $4 headphones (probably actual price to manufacture).... both are mediocre quality.
 Best In-Ear for the Cost!! July 30, 2010
JC from KC (Kansas City, MO)
I've had these earphones for almost two years and using them daily. I could not be more satisfied with the money I spent. I use it for my laptop, my laptop, when I exercise, and even when I play my Roland electric drum set with great sound. The sound is still excellent to this day. When this pair goes kaput I'll buy another set.
 The worst earphones I've ever purchased July 25, 2010
Robert Moore (Chicago, IL USA)
The only earphones that I've ever owned that were worst than these were the ones that came with my iPod.
I had been using some Klipsch Image S2s with my iPod and had been delighted with them. One of the earplugs developed a short, rendering them useless. I bought these Sennheisers because I had had great success with Sennheiser products in the past and thought that these would make good back up earphones if they proved to be unsuccessful as primary ones.
I was shocked and horrified at how awful these were! The sound was muddy and hollow, weak both in the bass range and treble. I will not even use these for back ups.
I know that these are cheap, but these would be a terrible purchase even at a third of the price. If you don't care about sound quality, you won't mind these. If you do care about good sound quality and want something a lot better than what you get with your iPod (these are at least a very tiny step up from those miserable things), don't get these. Just about anything will be better than these. After listening to these for less than five minutes, I ordered a new pair of Klipsch Image S2s.
I probably regret this purchase more than any piece of audio equipment that I've made in my life.
I am responsible to share good thing with other people July 25, 2010

It is the first time I spend time on writing a review~my motivation came from this good item~I used several different headphone before, SONY, Shure, and Ultimate Ear. All of them are more expensive then this one, but the quality~I mean the pleasure I get from its sound, is much bigger than the earphones which are 3 times as expensive as it. I love it! If you can find a deal whose price is around 20, then go for it! It worth the money for sure. Another thing you need to be careful, the size of the ear plug~if you use the in-appropriate one, the sound effect will be weaken by it~so make sure you select the correct size earplug. there are three different sizes of ear plugs go together with the ear phone~so must be one suitable for you~
A truly good product~!
