A great step up from the Apple standard [Posted on 2007-06-16]
I read a review about these somewhere -- New York Times? Airline magazine? -- and decided to try them out. Night and day from the standard Apple white earbuds. These lodge inside the ear (once you chose your right size from the three sizes of rubber covers), and block out most of the outside noise. Inside in a quiet room you hear details of your music you've never noticed before; in the gym, on the street or in the subway you can listen to your music without distractions. I have a set of the very expensive Bose noise-cancelling earphone which I'm going to leave behind next time I take a plane trip. Only gripe is that the cord is thinner and more kink-prone than Apple's ubiquitous white iTunes cord and has a cheap feel. If you've paid your $150+ for an iPod you should invest in a pair of these and hear all the music has to offer.
What bass? [Posted on 2008-03-13]
I do not understand how they have the nerve to put anything about "good bass" in the technical and product descriptions for this item. I got these to replace my Koss Sparkplug earphones, and what a disappointment! My old Sparkplugs have pretty darn good bass response, but they are kind of a hassle to get into the ear. When I first put in these Koss KEB24 earbuds I was *ecstatic* over how well they fit into my ears and how easy they are to put in. I thought: man, with such a good fit these are sure bound to sound great! Wrong. Once I tried listening to some bass-heavy mp3s--big letdown! If you want good bass--stay away! Even with the lousy fit the Sparkplugs had much better bass. I'm new to this type of earbud so I'll have to keep searching for something better.
Very awesome. [Posted on 2008-03-27]
In the words of a 14 year old girl, "like, oh-my-god.. these are like so awesome! they have like the best sound so when I'm totally rocking out to.. hmm who do the kids listen to these days.. rocking out to N*SYNC!"
The sound really is great, and to come from such a small product is outstanding. These were bought for a MP3 player on a cell phone, and it's like having great music from your $300 MP3 player or that other product that's out there but I will not give a title too because an Apple a day is the reasons we have doctors.
Amazing sound, until it breaks [Posted on 2008-04-18]
I've been using Koss "The Plug" Portable Headphones (colors vary)forever. When I saw these headphones I was so excited and when I got them I was amazed by the sound. But two weeks later the right plug stopped working properly.
I thought maybe I had just got a bad pair, but when I bought another pair the same thing happened again. You want some great earbuds, go for Koss "The Plug" Portable Headphones (colors vary).
not bad [Posted on 2008-07-10]
I've test rap, metal, country, rock, and a few other genres. The sound is about average. The headphones themselves are very lightweight, which is good I guess, but they feel cheap. The bass sound very deep, but not solid. The vocals sound a little above average and are very tolerable. If you strictly listen to rap or r&b, you may want to go with a different set.
