Review on Black In-Ear Sport Headphones - Yurbuds Ironman Inspire by Molly Hoffman

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't buy this! with headphones

I run at least 10 miles a week and bought these because I'm going to start accumulating miles for training a half marathon and the fact that summer is coming and sweat is becoming a bigger problem. All I can say is don't waste your money! I've used JVC HAFX30B, Marshmallow headphones, which you can get at Revain for $10.23 (about 1/3 the price) and they fit better and sound better. Sound quality wasn't that important to me, just need something to distract me while I'm jogging, but I figured they would at least stay indoors and be comfortable, but they don't. I've had very good luck with the right one but the left one doesn't stay up no matter what I do (except when I'm wearing a headband) and the funny thing is the right one stays up but until I get back from my run every morning (less than 30 minutes) my ear hurts from the pressure it puts on it. So I don't think resizing will help and they don't come with size adapters. The sound is very metallic and if there's one good thing about them, it's that I can still hear cars approaching because they don't completely block out outside noise, which I like. Marshmallows have a much better base sound, they hold up better, and the only issue I had was having wax buildup that I had to scrape off about once a week. I will come back to them but I wish I had bought three more pairs of Zephyrs instead of this pair of Yurbuds which really have no qualities.

Pros
  • Twistlock technology ensures a secure fit that's guaranteed not to fall out, even during the most strenuous exercise
Cons
  • Can hurt
