I was looking for a pair of good performing earphones that weren't too expensive in the event I lost them or damaged them during my travels. These fit the bill perfectly.

A good middle of the road earphone

"I have tried 15 different earphones, from the Bose(which just wouldn't stay in my ears without being glued in) to Seinhauser (sp?) which could be "locked in" Nothing has worked very well. These are ok.. not bad, [$], they havent fallen out yet and seem to do what they are supposed to do.

"These earphones are certainly a step up from the bargain or originally supplies ones. My mp3 player isn't listed as one of the best for bass but these do the best they can to produce a great, clear sound and they do block outside noises fairly well. "

"I bought these headphones to replace a pair of Denon IEMs that had, unfortunately, managed to get its cord cut. These are a worthy replacement for the Denons, and even rank up there with the pair of VModa Vibes I used to have (also suffered cord failure).
