A Better Value than the MX55 October 12, 2008
I bought and use these entirely for exercising - primarily running. While the green color is rather obnoxious, I find that the design is much improved over the MX55. Which I
The 55's had a inline volume control that I never used and instead created an annoying lump in my clothes (I route the cable underneath my shirt down to my wrist band where my iPod Nano is secured.) In addition, the tabs that held the 55's in my ear weren't as well designed and didn't have the option of multiple size pads like the 75's did.
I also liked that the 75's came with extra parts. At some point, the 55's lost a piece or two and became virtually useless.
Good earphones for the price October 7, 2008
These ear phones really fit. I have had problems finding earbuds that stay put. I have never liked the in-the-ear types and finally someone made a product that works. The sound is very good, mostly because the speaker stays where it needs to be to transmit the music into your ear canal. The bass response could be stronger but most basic equalizers should be able to compensate to give you a good experience. The only downside: the cord will not uncoil/untwist. I have had them hanging straight down from a hanger with a light weight on the end for two months and they still look like a slinky when I wear them. I just tuck them under my shirt when I run. Otherwise they fit and they sound good.
 These are amazing!!! October 6, 2008
Wow! These are just an amazing set of headphones. They have that great sound of a really expensive pair of headphones. There are a couple of ways to put them in, so be patient. It's worth it because they will stay on till you pull them out. And they really don't hurt at all. When you read those reviews about them hurting, it's because they don't put them in the way that works for them. I've run in these for an hour or more, no problems, no pain. There's a little bag that comes with it that has a different assortment of size nubs so you can really find the right size, just for you. Overall, these are just a painless, great-sounding,perfect pair of headphones that will NOT fall out.
 Doesnt fit all ears and falls apart October 6, 2008
It's hard to purchase earbuds over the internet. You kind of take a shot in the dark and hope you get something you like.
I learned a few things about these earbuds. My ears are not too large, not too small.
- The green cushion pads fall off without too much abuse. The first one fell off after I had had the earphones only a week or two.
- The rather large hard plastic main part of the earbud is huge and doesn't always get in far enough in the ear to produce a good sound.
- The protrusion from the top that is meant to keep the device in your ear doesn't work all that well (again, based on ear shape), and can even make wearing them painful after a while. They stay in my ear pretty well, but I don't remember the regular Ipod headphone being much worse.
- The cord unnecessarily tries to return to a cord shape. Everytime I pull this out of the bag it is horribly tangled.
- The green color isn't as cool as I thought it would be.
I have used these earbuds for about 6 months now and I am disappointed with them. I use a Sennheiser headset at home for online gaming and it works great. I would steer clear from this one. I may try a Sony pair that got recommended to me, or just something without the obnoxious protrusions on the top. The fact that the cushions come off and are lost easily is sort of a deal breaker for me.
Great value for quality headphones October 6, 2008
After a reasonable amount of research, I was very happy to discover these very capable sport headphones. I have found that the sound quality is very good (including an excellent low end). The fit is comfortable, even after several hours of wear, and with several pad sizes included, there was some flexibility in terms of fitting my ear. I would almost say that my favorite feature is the cord. Unlike other sport headphones, this cord is a bit thicker and stiffer. Where some might consider this a detriment, I find that it makes the cord much less likely to tangle when not in use. I highly suggest these headphones. The quality and price make this a great buy.
