Sennheiser LX70 Sport Flexible Stereo Headphones

For years, sports accessories have been amongst the biggest areas of iLounge reader interest, and for good reason: from mini to shuffle, nano, and 5G, each year's smaller-than-competing model iPods simply make better exercise companions than their...

Lightweight sport headphones that are like Apple's packed-in iPod earbuds, but with a loop-like flexible connecting cord between them, water- and sweat-resistance, greater durability, and bright, sporty green coloration. Very good audio quality, with...

Highest-priced of the Sennheiser sport earphones we tested, without commensurate benefit. Foam covers may be tearable ; additional reinforcement provided by soft cable to keep these on your ears isn't as strong as on Sennheiser's other sport options ;...

I love the color, and the thick cable

Sennheiser LX 70 Sport

These headphones are clearly made for aliens who don't sweat, and have strangely shaped heads. To begin with I was very pleased, and thought that �6.49 was an absolute bargain for a sennheiser product, this being a company which I hold in high esteem.

1. Great sound quality

1. Terrible fit

Best Workout Headphones I've Ever Owned!

I bought my pair of Sennheisser LX70 headphones almost 4 years ago and they are just now starting to show signs of wear (although they are still functioning). I have ran/exercised in tropical, subtropical, cold, and dry environments and these things...

Such a Shame

In the name of design Sennheiser has sacrified comfort. I bought these headphones based on their reputation for quality sound, which they do have it, but all is lost in poor design. The earbuds do not stay in place, and they are very uncomfortable. I...

Great design, lousy durability

These are good enough that I bought a second pair when the first ones wore out. Sadly they ALSO disintegrated -- and faster than the first. The wires' rubber coating cracked and separated from the ear buds. Beautiful but almost zero longevity.

I love these, but you might not

I love these headphones. I want something lightweight that I can carry with me at all times. These are perfect for exercise, where they don't fall out of my ears, but can easily be removed from my ears and wrap around my neck. In-ear headphones always...

Another set of heaphones!!!

Saw these Sennhesiers on Tiger Direct for $10, and without searching for user reviews, bought a pair. I totally agree with the other folks who said that these just don't fit very well. I would describe the head band as a spring loaded knot in a set of...
