I have purchased many Maxell products in the past and have always been satisfied. Not this time. I received them today for a number of reasons. I needed a set of black headphones, I liked the in-ear look without anything superimposed and the Maxell name. While they sit comfortably in my ear, the sound is definitely lacking. As expected, the mid-range sounds good and powerful. The highs are difficult to diagnose and the bass is definitely weak. Even when I turn on Bass Boost in my MP3. Another issue is that while they fit comfortably in your ear and you can even lie sideways without discomfort, there's really nothing that can take them out of your ears other than the wires themselves. Now I see they don't will last that long. A few weeks ago I bought a set of JBuds for less than this. You are much better. They're crystal clear, have great sound and strong, tight bass. I would recommend going this route.
