1.0 out of 5 stars Less punch than an AM radio, January 6, 2008

By	Kevin Knox "SuperHappyFunBot.com" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was really disappointed with these headphones. For a pair of $40 headphones, they should have a much better response than they do. The low ends are horrible and seem to drop off at about 500hz. I have had $10 sony headphones that have performed better.

The only pro that I have to write about these are that they do in fact suppress outside noise. They are not "noise canceling" headphones (as another reviewer mentioned) but rather they fit snuggly and keep out outside noise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buying my second pair, March 8, 2008

By	K. Farrell (Clarkston, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Okay, the dog loves chewing these buggers! Is it the silicone? Probably, or the dog is just weird!
Anyway, I have owned other earbuds, all have fallen out at one point or another while exercising! These buds come with three different sizes and stay in place!!! Buy them and you won't be disappointed. It's worth the $40.00. Nice storage case too. This is my second purchase, and only because the dog chewed them up, but they have not lost their ability to stay in and the sound quality is fine with me.

5.0 out of 5 stars No one seems to get it. Small ears, folks!, April 22, 2009

By	L. Blumenthal "lynn" (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The number one reason to get these earphone is because, for some of us, the standard size earbuds HURT. Those of us who were cursed with small ears simply cannot tolerate those awful earbuds that come with iPods. TG these were invented. Simply select the smallest silicone covering, pop it in your ear and, ah, comfort. I don't give a hoot if I'm getting perfection in high fidelity, I just don't want an earache when I'm done listening. (I don't think the sound is bad at all, BTW.)

I also found out I'm not alone. Many people have this same problem, which makes me wonder why Apple has not stocked more of these at their stores or offered them free if you trade in your regular earbuds. This is not a kid's issue. I'm a fully grown, middle-aged adult, and small ears are a big problem for me. Lots of people with mini ear canals are big people too. I don't know why no one has picked up on this before.

The only downside to these earphones is that they are rather fragile and tangle like crazy. They can break off between the silicone covering and the wiring for the earphone. Treat them with care. I've had to order two pair already. (There are cases available for them and I suggest you get one.) Now my sister (average size) is complaining about her own small ears, so I've got to order another pair for her. I'm just thanking my lucky stars that there's a cheap alternative out there to combat the one-size-fits all mentality. Someone has to pay attention to those of us who aren't average.
