These are terrible, eventually [Posted on 2008-02-12] This product seemed like a great buy at first. The quality of the sound was amazing and the different options for the ear piece sizes was great. However, I have had these for about three months now and one of the ear pieces suddenly cut out. These are over 60 bucks so you can be assured that I took quality care of them, putting them away neatly after every use, but the one ear phone just cut out. This is a TERRIBLE product and TERRIBLE quality.
Quality excellent for price [Posted on 2008-03-08] You must push the ear pieces all the way into your ear in order to get the full sound, otherwise it will be tinny and shrill. I paid less than $50 for these earphones, and right now they are almost the same price as the super.fi 3, so you might as well get those instead. Considering the low cost of the metro, you can't expect an audiophile experience. You will get quality that is more than sufficient for most people and that will surely be an upgrade from the basic earphones that are included with your music player.
Excellent earphones for the money [Posted on 2008-04-01] I put a lot of time into researching new earphones for on-the-go usage; I could not have spent my money better. The Ultimate Ears metro.fi 2 earphones have a single driver (you won't get more than one unless you spend well over $100) yet they boast a smooth range. The lows are bolstered by strong but not overpowering bass, which is controlled and accurate. The great bass adds an extra dimension to songs, especially if you have been using headphones with weak bass.
The mid-range is good although slightly recessed. It is smooth and has good separation though. Every sound I have heard through these earphones has come out with unmistakable clarity. Noise isolation is decent for these type of earphones (these are not canalphones); they reduce ambient sound by about 16db.
The Ultimate Ears metro.fi 2 earphones are an excellent all-around product for running, sports, or general listening. They come with a nice leather carry case and several different ear tips - they fit any ear.
Highly recommended.
Buy These Buds- Trust Me [Posted on 2008-04-28] I am a musician and I am very picky about my audio equipment. I have tried all of the better buds out there from Shure, Bose, V-moda, Sennheiser, Sony, etc...... I was just about to give up on my search for the perfect bud and I came across these. Let them bake(24 hours of play time)and these buds sound awesome. Great high, solid mid and good Bass. Comfortable fit, sturdy wiring. For the price, you just can't beat these.
Disappointing [Posted on 2008-04-29] Got these as a replacement for the Sony Fontopias (when the left earbud broke on my third pair of Fontopias in a year, I've decided to move up to bigger and better). Was initially pleased with the sound isolation and the audio quality. Then the problems started to pile on: the earbuds won't stay on unless you are sitting perfectly still and not moving your head. I had to hold them in my ears at the gym! Whenever the cord bounces off your body, you hear it over the music, like a hollow noise. The earbud covers started to come lose and come off the drivers, which had me in a constant state of paranoia of losing them. The very stiff cord makes it impossible to keep the earbuds in your ears, they get yanked out every time you turn your head. The cord also does not lie flat against your body, which makes it easier for others to accidentally yank the buds out when they walk past you. Long story short - I seem to have lost them on a recent trip, and I am not getting a replacement pair.
