These are great if you need something for workingout & don't need the best sound quality in the world. Sound quality is good & you can still hear outside noises which is good for those of us that live in cities where drivers don't care if they hit you & rapists/killers never sleep. The headphones have survived my workout bag so far & they have survived my crazy amounts of sweating without getting stinky. My one dislike is that they don't get any tighter on your ears. They haven't fallen off yet but they don't feel secure either.

I previously had the koss but changed since they keep falling out. I have tried this for about 3 weeks @ 3x a day. The fit is the best and I never have to touch them again. The biggest problem is the sound. I don't constantly have to fiddle with the earphones however I do have to change the volume constantly. For some reason the highs are extremely tinny/loud and when playing certain music it hurts my ears. The bass is obviously lacking. I'm no audiophile but when playing music that used to sound good on regular headphones now hurts the ears is really bad. I think I had to crank the volume so high to hear the mids and lows that when the highs come in they hurt.

Overall:
Fit: 5 stars
Sound: 1 star

Length:: 1:49 Mins

I recommend spending double the money and get the Sennheiser Sport PMX 70 (or better: the updated PMX 80). These headphones are very small for male ears and sound like a can of beans. They actually came off a couple of times as the behind-the-ear design is too small and flexible. They are light-weight, though. So together with the bad sound you won't notice when they fall off and you step on them - no difference either way. I also doubt that they are "sweatproof", as only the rubber pieces that touch the ear are "washable" with a wet washcloth - the actual drivers have large openings where sweat will run in (yuck). The 24 Ohm impedance makes them also a bit on the quiet side. I definitely NOT recommend them!

I purchased these for a hearing asistance device. The wearers like the comfortable fit as well as the volume it sustains without distortion. The headset sits at the ear canal without entering it. I have even considered getting a set for myself when I don't want to lug arround my HD280's

These headphones lasted me a couple of years, which is better than most. I have small ears and most earbud style headphones hurt my ears, but I need something that will stay in place while I am running. These do the trick. They do leak sound, so you'll hear ambient noise, and people sitting next to you might be bothered, but neither of those were an issue for me.

Even the spec says "Frequency response: 14Hz - 24kHz", there is no bass. The core is very hard and thin. They will stay on ears (all sizes), but definitely not worth more than $10. Sony MDR-J10 h.Ear Headphones with Non-Slip Design (Blue) has better sound quality and less than $10. I like other Panasonic products, but this one ruined their reputation.

They are very confortable to run and the sound quality is acceptable, you still hear the outside and enjoy the music. I would have given the 5 stars with more sound clarity.

It's very comfortable and flexible. But I feel that the length of the wire is short.
