Best Headphones for MP3 PlayersOctober 18, 2008 These little earbud pack one heck of a punch! Crisp clear highs with a deep low end solid bass. Best bang for the buck. I would say these are the best sounding headphones, under $50.00
I know why the wires make the scratching sound.October 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I got this product today from amazon.com and I was disappointed first because I also experienced the scratching sound from the wires. I read what some of the reviewers have written about that and I thought I screwed up. There was no way I could return it because I had already opened the package.
I checked reviews on the other ear buds like Sony E75 and Bose on various websites, I found out that most in-ear earbuds makes that scratching sound. It works like the stethoscope the doctors use. I guess that happens because we push the ear bud too deep into the ear canal that it gets too close to the actual Ear-drums. And every sound is thus magnified.
So the solution to this problem is don't try to push the ear buds all the way into the ear canal. I don't think thats what the designers had in mind. When you use it try to keep it just slightly in. You try to find the actual depth by checking if the scratching sound is picking up or not. You will see the difference then. No scratching sounds, at the same time enjoy a great sound from the ear buds. And it gets better when you think of the price.
Static NoiseOctober 11, 2008 All the visual aesthetics of these ear plugs are great. Even the feel of the plugs in my ears was good and even the sound - if I remained perfectly perfectly motionless - is just plain excellent. Hoever, I'm not a Hutt. I move. And any movement of the cord from the V-split up to each earplug results in unlistenable scratchy static noises. I'm returning this. Major disappointment.
Better than iPod earphones.September 27, 2008 I've had this for a little over 3 months now and it's still working great. It's also very comfortable.

I bought these because they were getting really good reviews. I like the fabric cord but that's where it stops. The sound quality is just horrible. I have to turn the volume up twice as much to get the same sound level as my regular Zune headphones. There is almost no bass. Another thing is that I tried all of the different size tips and none of them felt like they fitted. It always felt like the buds were going to fall out of my ears. What a waste of money.
