 Nice headphones November 11, 2008
Gregor B. Harlston (Rochester, NY)
Overall, I like these headphones a lot. They are, by far, superior to the headphones that come with the Ipod. I use mine primarily when I workout. It's nice to be able to put them in my ear and not have to worry about them falling out. My only complaint is that I wish the headphone cord were shorter. Occasionally when I play basketball the cord, because of its length, gets in my way. The original Sony headphone design gave you the option to shorten the amount of cord you used. However, the new design no longer provides that option. I wish Sony would bring it back. But overall I am pleased with headphones and quality of sound.
 Really Well Made! November 4, 2008
Emily A. Stefano (NY)
I absolutely beat these things up and they are still fine. I have had them for over a year and I use them every day. I manage to literally rip them out of my ear by hitting the cord just about ever other day. I have had a couple pairs of headphones break on me this way, but these show no signs of wear whatsoever. I have no clue how people are having trouble with the cords. br / br /I also really like the plug. Having it angled makes it much less likely to break when you wrap it around an mp3 player or something like that. br / br /The wire to the right headphone is twice as long as the left one which seems really weird at first, but it's not difficult to get used to. br / br /The sound quality isn't great. Noise can carry through the cord if it rubs on your clothes, but you can't expect too much for $20. br / br /The carrying case is completely useless...just throw it out when you get it!
Great Little Earbuds November 2, 2008
Thomas Falschnamen
These earphones were cheap, and very good quality. I've read complaints about hearing yourself chew, etc... but for me it hasn't been a problem. I have a cheap pair of JVC's (about $10) that produce near the same quality sound, but these are way more comfortable. It's true, the cord is a bit too short, but for all my purposes, it's been long enough. br / br /Regardless, if you're looking for a good set of earphones, then these are worth purchasing. I've also tried Sennheiser's, and I think I made the right decision with these.
FABULOUS FOR THE PRICE October 26, 2008
Cronopio (USA)
I bought these earphones about 9 years ago in Japan (yes nine years ago!). Sony invented the in-ear design, but apparently did not patent it as EVERYONE uses it with inpunity now. I've had my third pair (I lost the two others!) for about 2 years and they are in perfect shape. The guy who posted those pictures of the damaged cables CLEARLY abused them. The sound is far from perfect but excellent given the size and price. And the fit is unbeatable, you could wear them for hours and forget you have them on. Amazing product. br / br /
 Earphones for tiny ears October 25, 2008
Dufferjo
I have really small ears and I've always had a difficult time finding earphones that work. I tried the over-the-ear type, but they don't really work that well when you're trying to work out (they always come off). A friend recommended these. They fit really well and don't pop out of my ear when I work out, but the sound quality is not as good as I hoped.
