- Just works fine
- For some reason the typical ear buds just don't fit my ears - I don't know how anybody can walk or move without standard ear buds falling out. These, however, just fit and sound ok. They are comfortable and easy to use. Bass response is a bit weak, but I can live with that for the price I paid.

- twist to fit doesn't work
- They work fine as regular headphones but the twist to fit system is a joke. It's stupid, it doesn't do anything.

- Decent sound. Not as comfortable as you'd think.
- Not a bad little set of earphones. They sound OK and there is quite a bit of customization, but they just never quite fit my ears. Good for the price.

- Poor build quality, but a good idea
- The headphones do what I believe their initial intent is, in that they stay in your ears while you are being active. However, everything else about them is a let down. When I received them in the mail, I was excited to try them out as my original ipod ones have been falling out while running since I lost the little foam covers on them. So, I get the box and open it, and even though these ship in their hard plastic protective case, the silver backing on one of the ear buds was completely detached. So I re-glued it together, let it dry, then went for the run.
The little nubbin that sticks up top does exactly what it is designed to do; keep the damn things in your ears while you are bouncing around. That is good, as this is the exact reason I bought these, but after running with them for 2 weeks now, I have had to re-glue the blue rings that surround the screens on the right bud twice, and now the left bud has picked up a "popping" noise when I go running with each step.
So all in all:
PRO: they stay in your ear, just as they meant to
CON: Horrible quality, will likely fall apart while remaining in your ear. - 2008-11-24, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Decent Buy!
- As far as sound goes, I have no qualms. I've always been a fan of Sennheisser.
The twist-to-fit system makes the design sound a little more sophisticated than it actually is...but it works.
The case that comes with the headphones is excellent. It may be time consuming to use, but the care is worth it.
These are not earbuds so they don't fit inside the ear to provide maximum sound inhibition. However that may suit the user's preference.
The accessories (silver/blue casing) fall off easily. I'd only had the headphones a week when I lost the left side casing. - 2008-11-24, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
