 Uncomfortable November 30, 2006
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
The sound quality is very good. However, my ears would inevitably ache after about 30 minutes of wear. The earbuds are hard plastic (albeit with a thin foam cover), which means my ear must yield to the earbud and not the other way around. These might be a great buy for someone with average to large ear apertures, but probably not for someone with smaller ears. I recommend the "marshmallow"-style ear buds (such as Sony MDR-EX71SLA), with the silicone gasket that conforms to the ear. They're more expensive, but they're comfortable for hours even in my tiny ears.
 SHOCKINGLY bad March 30, 2006

Bought these earphones today and already hate them. Every 10 seconds or so the earpieces give me tiny little electric shocks to my ears. Not necessarily painful, but very uncomfortable and *NOT* what you want in a pair of headphones. I was surprised to see another reviewer had the same experience with this product.
Note: I've used many other sets of headphones with my iPod and never had this problem. I'm taking these back to the shop tomorrow.
 Pleasant Suprise for under $10 November 14, 2004
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I read several reviews of these headphones here at Amazon about a month ago and decided that I give them a chance when my current headphones broke. My sub-par Koss clip-ons died on me last Friday after 4-months and the standard pair that came with my Rio Cali had broken weeks after purchase, so I decided to purchase a pair.
I bought them at my local Sears for $10 rather than order them from Amazon because I needed them ASAP. These headphones more than exceed my expectations. My previous experiences with bud-style headphones have been pretty bad. These however, had excellent sound quality, above-average bass, and fit into my ears quite nicely. I don't have any problem with the length of the cord and I tend to keep my MP3 player clipped to my waist while I listen to it.
The winding case is very easy to use and is a nice edition as it prevents my headphones from getting tangled in my backpack or purse when not in use. Also included are removable pads that fit over the tips of the headphones themselves for a better fit.
All in all, I'd recommend these headphones even if you're not normally a fan of bud-style headphones. Their excellent sound quality and low price are sure to please.
good sound/cheap January 13, 2005
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
These headphones, like most headphones, sound great compared to speakers at a similar price.
However, for something this cheap I've always liked Sony ear-buds because of the case -- most headphones are awkward and delicate for traveling. This winding case was great until mine stopped winding after four months.
The Best Earbuds I Have Ever Used April 17, 2005
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The bass is clear and strong. The treble is crisp and does not break up or pop. Great for techno, rock, and alternative music. I compared these to the Apple iPod M9394G/A Earbud Headphones that my friend owned. The Apples couldn't hold a candle to the Sony buds and on top of that the Sonys are thirty dollars cheaper. The sony spin case is also convenient. If you have small ear canals these may be a little too large, but otherwise I would highly recomend them.
