2.0 out of 5 stars Poor wiring - good sound, November 5, 2006

The wires wore in numerous locations in less than 2 months. The gage is too small to hold up to active use. I would strongly suggest looking at an alternative.

The sound quality is good which is typical of Sennheiser, but they have to improve the materials to justify the purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good sound, horrible fit!, April 11, 2007

I thought that the over-the-ear design would be the way to go for a pair of gym earphones, but I've found that it's more of a hindrance than a help. The ear buds always come out of my ears - sure, the over-the-ear arm keeps them sitting ON my ear but without the buds being right into your ear canal, you get no bass. This results in a very washed out, tinny sound.

If you hold them in your ear (or if you're not moving), then they sound great - but unfortunately, my experience (over about six months) is that they just don't fit properly. The over-the-ear arm puts the ear buds at the wrong angle, which makes them pop out. I suspect the twist-to-fit MX75 ear buds - Sennheiser MX75 Twist-To-Fit In-Ear Stereo Sport Headphones - would be a better purchase.

I would not buy these again.

I've tried a lot of headphones and earphones (see my other reviews), and these are the best, IMO, for a pair of casual earphones.

They go on easily, they stay on very comfortably, and they sound good. The next best option, the Bang & Olufsen A8's (I had a pair of those until they were stolen), sound a bit better, look more refined and look sturdier, but these Sennheisers cost a third as much, go on easier, and are more comfortable.

Most any clip-on pair doesn't sound as good as in-ear phones, particularly the bass, but then again sometimes one would like to hear one's surroundings. I think the sound of clip-on earphones is better with more pressure pushing them onto the ear. These OMX70 are gentle, in contrast the more-firmer-clamped PMX70s sound a bit better at the cost of getting uncomfortable after a couple of hours. Also, the OMX70s take a surprising amount of power from my iPod, although they still play as loudly as I'd like.

The styling is gaudy, but my family hasn't complained yet. These come with a cool case.
