Very Unsatisfied

I purchased these headphones because the earbud style is the only ones that would stay in my ear. These kept coming out, and the wire had a short in it. I was very dissapointed in the product. Every time I moved my head they popped out of my ear. I...

Down to the wire in 6 months

I purchased these headphones about 6 months ago for $40. What a mistake that was. The covering of the wire has been slowly tearing away. I'm left with the bare wire and i'm not happy. I'm really getting sick of buying headphones like these that...

Small Size, Small Price, Big Sound

After steering far away from Sony's earbud "melting" cord problem, I decided to look elsewhere. After researching far and wide these little buds caught my attention. As for the uneven length of the cord, I suppose I can understand the confusion for...

Uneven cords

While the sound quality of the headphones is good, the cords are of different lengths. I don't see how this is supposed to work, but it looks really funny and is inconvenient. Don't buy these.

Better than the sony fontopia

These are the same spesker elements as the more expensive Sony.The problem I have with the Sony is the stupid offset (one earbud wire longer than the other, this still has that) and the fact that the casing peels away from the wire if it is exposed to...

A Wonderful Surprise!

I have, over the past year, owned a number of headphones including Sony MDR-EX71SL, Shure E2c, and MyMusic MY603s. After my Sonys finally broke, as all EX71s do sooner or later (6 mos. for me), I set out to find an affordable pair of high quality...

Not the advertised model - be warned!

This product is actually the cheaper JVC 'Marshmallow' headphones (model number HA-FX35-PN), not the FX55 as advertised. If you want Marshmallow headphones, you can buy them cheaper elsewhere. (Though they're not very good - low sound quality and...
