I was just looking for any headphones to replace my ipod earphones, and so I tried the Lift Audio headphones. I have also tried out the skull candy, j-buds, and v-moda headphones but the sound quality wasn't good enough. So this was my fourth attempt in finding a good pair of reliable headphones. I am very satisfied with the Lift Audio headphones, the sound quality was amazing, and the sound isolation really works!
I felt like I was listening to a $100 pair of headphones. These are also very comfortable and the extra silicon fittings helped out because I use the smaller fittings. Not to mention the keyholder case, is so convenient, I always have my headphones safe and protecred with my keys. By the way, the BASS is KNOCKIN' !!!

I got these a few days ago and have used them multiple times since then. The quality on music and handheld games is just as good, if not better, than some larger headphones I have. Overall, I have no complaints with the quality or comfort of these headphones.

I do have a couple of small problems that I feel warrant mentioning, though. I needed to switch out the medium earpieces (which come pre-installed) for the small ones. Pulling the medium pieces off was no trouble at all, but getting the small ones on was a real pain. It must have taken me 20 minutes to get the small earpieces to fit snugly onto the speakers, and I found one of them to be slightly loose after my first usage, which was a bit frightening; no one wants these earpieces to actually come out in their ear canals! Fortunately, I've used them several times since then and they've stayed 100% snug.

The other complaint I have is that the cable, at least initially, is not split far enough. As these headphones plug directly into the ear canals, every single movement of the wire can be heard. This is because the two cables merge too high up. Peeling the cables apart a little further down the line gave the cables more breathing room and greatly alleviated the sound of the cables knocking around.

One star knocked off for the scare and minor annoyances. Overall, though, I'm very pleased with these and am considering reserving another pair or two.

UPDATE - February 18, 2010

After about 2.5 months of light use, the speaker covering on one of the headphones just came off. I don't mean the rubber covers, I mean the little piece of thin cloth on the headphones themselves. I was not hard on these. The carrying case fell apart, as well; the keyring just snapped right off. These headphones have good sound quality, but exceptionally poor build quality - they break quickly and don't even have L/R markings. Splitting the wire also did not help my interference problem as much as I initially thought, but this is apparently an annoyance with all canalphones so I won't knock them for that. I am not nearly as happy with these as I previously was.

I don't write a lot of reviews, but these can't be beat for the price (I paid ten bucks). I'm using them right now as I right this and they sound GREAT and don't fall out easily like the Apple ear buds.
