Great sound for a low price

I've used them for years when using Creative MP3 players and now use them on my iPods because the sound is richer than anything I've tried , and I have the $! 00 Bose set. The only suggestion would be to have a remote and ribbon cable, but I know that's asking a lot for the price. If Creative adds that to these headphones, I'll buy them in a heartbeat.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Multiplier set

I love the sound: in-ear headphones

Like others, I bought this because of all the headphones I've used since the Creative Zen Media Player, it's the only one with accurate full-spectrum sound that doesn't require deep penetration into the ear. I will continue to buy only these. The only downside is what I ordered was wrapped tightly on itself. It's been about 4 months and I'm still pulling the spool out of the wire. I'll definitely get another one as a backup.

Pros
  • Absolutely great!
Cons
  • Repair

love the buds! - In-Ear Headphones

I originally bought these headphones about 5 years ago along with a CreativeLabs MP3 player. Well I still have a player that works great even after years of everyday use. But the kidneys are starting to wear out. The wires are a bit bent and I'm a little worried about the connection points. So I bought another pair to keep in reserve so I don't have to wait for another set to ship when they run out. They sound great and I use them every day. In my opinion a great buy for the price.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Appearance

Simple design and great sound for the price

I'm a bit of a music lover and use these kits for occasional listening at work or at home. Creative makes great products and this is one of them. These headphones have a really good balance. I have much more expensive Sony studio quality monitors so I'm picky about the sound and they work great with MP3 players and smartphones. After my son tried them on his Android smartphone and iPod, I had to order a set for him. You can't go wrong with this. I'll keep a few more sets for the price.

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • Not bad

Great headphones

I've always preferred this type of headphones. I have several Creative products and am delighted with the quality of the headphones. I think these are excellent. I don't like the ones that seem to be so popular at the moment that come with different sized caps that allow the headphones to go deep in the ear. They strike me as tinny. I particularly like the foam cases that come with the Creative headphones. When they wear out, Radio Shack has a replacement. I am deeply disappointed that Creative

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Too stupid

Excellent Quality: In Ear Headphones

Over the years since 2008 when I first got my first mp3, mp3 creative zen these have to be the highest quality earbuds I have ever used . I've never had really expensive ones, but I've tried. maybe 5-7 different brands of earplugs, there were only 1-2 that were even worth using. I bought a Sony for $10, the sound was crappy, horrible, horrible quality. Phillips is comfortable and nice, and for only $10, it's second best. The only downside with this is that it can be a bit small for your earsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Great sound at a very low price

These headphones are worth the price. I had a 5-6 year old pair that came with my wife's creative player; They were a bit big for her but perfect for me. I was surprised at how good they sounded and used them for many years but abuse eventually took its toll and the cable to the correct element broke. Seeing the same model available for purchase here, I wasted no time and ordered another set. I was a little skeptical that the new set would be as good as the original based on some of the recentโ€ฆ

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Minor flaws

They don't sound as good as the stock headphones

Doesn't sound as good as the stock headphones that came with my Zen Vision M 30GB (I tested this player). I have understood. and plugged it in, as soon as i did i heard static noise as i put it in my zen. I had a feeling it wouldn't sound good. I ordered it a month ago and was wondering why it didn't arrive until I emailed Amazon and they explained why and got it two days later. The box says Creative Zen Micro. This is EP-480 for Micro. Not EP-480 for Zen Vision M (Which leads me to believeโ€ฆ
