Sennheiser MX 90VC

The good ‘ole ear bud. The staple, cheap headphone included with nearly all portable electronics, has finally received a makeover. Sennheiser tries to set itself apart from the competition by designing an ear bud that addresses one of the most annoying...

Improved fit over traditional ear buds; stylish design; in-line volume control

Cords tangle easily; sound quality is not inspiring

Sennheiser has re-invented the ear bud with their "Twist to Fit" design found in the MX 90VC.

Background: I was trying to decide between these and the Sports line of MX series offered by Sennheiser (70,75,80 etc) and was a little worried about the complaints over durability and sound quality. After some research I noticed that the MX 90's had...
