this line of earbuds are excellent, only a fraction of the cost of high-end ones with the same functionality.
small but still deliver amazing sound [Posted on 2008-08-31]
Smokin' buds are the best in ear headphone that I have ever had. First they cancel most of the noise outside the ear, so that you can experience the sound with no distractions, and they deliver a sound that I never thought was possible by such a small speaker. Great product. Would recommend to anyone who was willing to pay a little more than normal, but get a far superior headphone.
Average Earphones [Posted on 2008-09-03]
After reading reviews and finding the only negative apparently being giant ear canals of one customer, I decided to give them a try. (I see what Giant Ear Canal means, by the way...they DO tend to fall out...but just play with the different sizes of "earpieces" they include; that solved my problem. I use the medium size on the left side and the large size on the right, but this is missing the point). The SOUND QUALITY is no better than the $15 JVC pair I bought at Wal-Mart.
Oh, and the volume slider is OK, but I have to take one earpiece to hear when people talk ANYway, so that feature was not a plus for me.
In my opinion, the Smokin' Buds company simply tries to appeal to the stoner crowd while charging twice the price. Save your dough and go with a real name-brand product.
Thanks for listening-

It's entirely possible that I had a bad pair, but the sound was completely flat with these earphones. My music lost all of its depth and breadth. You're better off with a generic pair of Phillips from the drugstore.
The only reason they get a star is because they look cool, which in no way makes up for the poor sound quality.
If you want great sounding headphones for under $50, get the Koss PortaPro's.
Best buds for my skull [Posted on 2008-09-15]
I was finally convinced to use ear buds over ear-covering 'phones when I got a set with my Pioneer Inno. Since I wanted one pair for home and one for the office, I have been trying to find another pair I liked as well.
First I decided to go with Pioneer, since I had such luck with the first set. But the buds were too big and hurt my ears. Next I tried a pair of Philips with the same results.
But with these ear buds, I am happy at last. They stay in my ear, their sound is clear--take that claim with a grain of salt since I use them more for talk recordings than for music--and the in-cord volume control is more useful than I'd anticipated.
I am tempted to buy more of these in other spiffy colors. But having read other reviews, I want to hang onto these for a while to see if I have a problem with their breaking within a year.
