Much better than the ones that come with any iPod or MP3 player. Sound isn't the same as studio headphones, but these are portable and don't cost as much.
I find these headphones to be very, very comfortable, to the extent that I often forget I'm even wearing them. I haven't tested the sound quality at very high volume settings due to not wanting to damage my ears, but I imagine, like the vast majority of other headphones, there are rather sever sound distortions at the upper sound levels. These headphones have a high max sound volume - I can't imagine anyone wanting the sound any louder than its max possible volume.
The audio is only decent, not great, and I'm no audiophile. The in-built volume control is a very handy feature, though I've noticed that when put above the minimum setting, it tends to distort the sound with slight hissing in the background. I've owned these headphones for over a year now, and they're still going strong.
Nothing terrible, but when I have a choice, I'd much rather increase the volume using my mp3 player, and not the headphones, because that doesn't cause any sound distortion. Overall, I think there are probably better headphones out on the market for the same price range, especially if you care a lot about sound quality, but if you value comfort, and a hardy design, these headphones are for you. Probably better than the standard ipod headphones though.
The build quality is very good - I've been pretty rough on them, yet they're still in very good shape.
The latter are way superior to anything I have used with my iPod ever.But I do like the case. I had read a lot about these, but when I finally got them I was a little disappointed as they were not that great. Ended up replacing them with a pair of CX300s for airplane trips and PX100s for home use.
Comes in great handy when someone starts talking to me, as my MP3 player tends to be tucked away and locked.I would definitely recommend these earphones to anyone looking for some good quality sound without emptying the bank. I was amazed at the great sound, and they have a super handy volume control on the chord too. These are great. I was looking for a cheap, but not too cheap pair of earphones, and stumbled across this gem. These are AWESOME earphones for a small price.
For 9 USD i guess you cannot expect more from them. They seriously lack bass. I owned 2 other sennheiser products, excellent. I thought these ear buds will be as good, but they are not.
