Review on ๐ŸŽง Westone UM Pro 50: Redesigned Body, High Performance Five-Driver In-Ear Monitors for Ultimate Noise Isolation by Barbara Murphy

Revainrating 5 out of 5

great headphones! fits headphones

This is my third set of Westones. I currently have w20s, w40s and uh pro 50s. Comparing the sound of the 40's and 50's the difference to observant ears is clear and I think it's worth spending the extra money to get the 50's now. I'm not saying the 40's are bad, just the 50's are better. a little cleaner not much but the sound seems much more natural and the extra driver seems to clean some tones better. A note on Westons: if you're buying them for working out, don't use soft headphones. They absorb water and can push it into the monitor, effectively frying it. Use rubber tips, and while they can slip a bit when you really sweat, they do a better job of keeping the monitor out of the water. Finally, westones customer service is seriously 5/5. They and garmin for the most part are just superb. They do everything they can to help you and keep you in their products. I'm just amazed by them!
