Excellent for what you pay November 17, 2007

I gave this product 4 stars cause I rated the product based on price/value, product quality and sound quality. Based upon all these I believe for $10 after shipping, you just can not beat the sound of these earphones. Yes, they are bass heavy and tend to muddy the overall sound spectrum a bit because of this fact, but it is easily overcome with an EQ setting on the ipod. The sound seems tight and crisp to me listening to pop, rock and some jazz on a EQ setting of treble booster. I couldnt listen to it at full volume to see where I could head distortion in lower or higher freq. The cable lanyard going into the buds seems kind of fragile. The silicon tips feel much cheaper that the tips on my Sennheiser CX-300's. Yet, these babies play the music on my ipod much louder than the CX-300's and do not seem to distort as easy as the CX-300s in the lower freq from what I have seen. Bottom line-5 stars = price/value, 4 stars = product quality and 4 stars = sound quality. If you are rough on earphones, keep your $10. But, if you are looking for a replacement earphone for your ipod and you are on a tight budget and arent an audiophilist, these may be for you.
 Better Sound Than I Expected November 15, 2007

I was quite happy with these earphones, if you don't get them pushed into your ear far enough you won't get the quality sound, if you're wanting to go cheap and still get good sound, this is it.
What a bargain! November 12, 2007

These earbuds are a real bargain, and I think are worth at least three times what I paid for them. If you want an inexpensive replacement for the crappy earbuds that come with most mp3 players, then these are a good choice. I only wish they also came in black rather than just white, but that's a minor quibble and doesn't diminish their value in my opinion. A big 5 stars for these babies!
Great buy!! November 12, 2007

I've had my ipod for less than a year and these earphones are the latest in a long line of replacements. I've had them for over a month now and they are extremely durable. All others that I've had were constantly getting stuck on something and ripping out of my ear, which caused the earphone screen to break, and sometimes for the entire earpiece to separate from its back, exposing wires and rendering that ear silent. These still get caught on things, but are enclosed in plastic which protects the wiring. These earphones also have soft plastic cushions that insert in your ear and keep them in. These will be the earphones that I will continue to use.
 Bad sound, bad fit, great price November 12, 2007
I was looking for a simple, cheap set of headphones to listen to music on the go as I lost my previous pair. Here is why I don't like this product:
1. The earbuds don't fit well - This could be because they don't fit my ears well, but it may be because I've never used earbuds before
2. You have to push them REALLY far in your ear to get them to stay, or to hear the sound properly - This is to extensive discomfort over time
3. The earbuds don't stay in your ear - if so much as small breeze tugs at the wires, they fall out. So, it is especially worthless while moving (or exercising/jogging) because they just stick in your ear canal. Earphones that come with most MP3 players are shaped to be held in your ear by resting on the cartilage, but these try to stay with with suction.
4. The sound is not high quality. To hear ANY bass, you must practically hold them deep into your ear. Also, if they aren't positioned perfectly, the sound is drastically reduced. Its difficult to equalize the music in both ears, so it is annoying to listen to the sound with differing levels of volume or clarity.
But........ they're ridiculously cheap. Not like I was expecting much.
