Mixed feelings headphones

I have mixed feelings about these headphones after purchasing them, so I will talk about the pros and cons. Pros: decent bass, wires seem more durable than other headphones I've had, triple flanged adapters fit in ears and are resistant to being dropped and/or pulled out, but may not suit those with smaller ear canals Cons: As per other reviews the movement of the cable over clothing causes noise that is easily transmitted to the headphones (this was reduced with a clip and fastening the cable to a shirt near the neck so that the cable moves less closer to the ears), the sound quality ( aside from the bass which was decent) was unobtrusive, noise isolation even with triple flange adapters wasn't as good as other headphones. I compared them to the Etymotic ER6i (discontinued and discontinued) and the Bose in-ear headphones. The Etymotic had much better noise isolation, comfort, and the best fit in the ear canal, but not as pronounced bass (more consistent response throughout, but not as much bass). The Bose had much better sound, but didn't stay in the ears with movement and had the worst noise isolation - mostly because they thumped out of the ear slightly. Overall they are well priced given the price and fast shipping from the supplier (MP4Nation in my case) and they have a nice (but large) case for the headphones and earphone adapters and I'll probably use them as a backup until my Break Etymotic ER6i.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
