 simply the the best July 2, 2008
I purchased these earphones for my trip to Vegas & I wanted to cancel out the loud engine noise on the plane. Those white earphones you get were not cutting it. There are amazing product I used them on the plane they were perfect they cut out the engine noise & produced a solid bass sound. I actually had to lower the volume on the ipod!! I love them!!
Perfect fit and a good treble to boot! June 17, 2008
The original iPhone earbuds were bothersome for me - not sufficiently sound-isolating to be used as the *only* buds while traveling in the air, and not comfortable enough otherwise. Also, they did not remain in place, and were not meant for use while walking etc.
I purchased these from a local store (which shall remain unidentified) since they had a ten-off coupon for it. First impressions were good - the in-ear buds fit well, sound quality is good and what's more, I did a back-to-back comparison with the original buds - the Vibe produces a better treble any day! Coupled with the sound-isolation provided by the snug fit, these are worth serious consideration. In comparison, the Bose ones at 99 reportedly are not well suited and have heavier bass.
Overall, I am happy. The one gripe? The carrying case is actually not leather - it is pleather,synthetic leather or bi-cast leather (yep, man-made). So, is it a case of false advertising? Quibble .. not a gripe!:-)
 These are very unreliable - I should have read the reviews June 15, 2008
I've had these for just over a year, and the volume on the left earbud has faded to virtually nothing. The warranty of course ends at one year, but given the negative feedback of many others on these review pages, it wouldn't have mattered - customer service is non-existant. This failure is obviously very common, so don't buy these assuming you will be the lucky one.
 Ouch my ears! Why are my expensive headphones falling apart? June 13, 2008
I bought these a few months ago. They seemed to be a great improvement over the predecessors the Shure E2C's and a set of Sony Earbuds. The sound is great, these have great clarity and range. The problem is they start to irritate your ears if worn for more than about an hour. I tried every different size adapter and still, ouch! The second thing is that now they have fallen apart. The wires started to seperate at the jack and eventually broke leaving only the strain relief to hold the the jack on. The last thing is characteristic of all earbuds. This is the separation of the rubber ear interface from the earbud. I would take them out of the little gold bag and the little rubber earpiece would going flying off and leave me to hunt the floor of the airplane cabin to retrieve it.
Good sound, but not as noise insulating as I hoped June 13, 2008
I bought these primarily to use on my commute. I had read they were great at insulating outside noise. I ride a very noisy public transit train in the SF Bay Area and these earbuds really don't block out enough sound. The train wheels just scream on the tracks in some sectinos. These are comfortable and the sound quality of the music is good but if you are looking for something to insulate outside noise, these won't really do it.
