Consumer review (newegg.com)

earbuds

 

Good sound, decent quality. I bought these for my wife and she likes them the most out of all the headphones I have bought for her

If your an audiophile you will not like the quality, but for exercise, daily use they are decent

Nice and cheap.

 

I like how they fit in my ears, and the sound for the price is fine. A decent pair of cheap earbuds. I dislike the cord design/style, I wish it were symmetrical and a single tube style wire covering.

The price is what made me buy these. I just wanted a cheap replacement of the default ipod buds that fit in the canal. I'm no audiophile, but the sound seems to be better than the default ipod buds. They are very comfortable in the canal, the 3 sizes...

The cord drives me nuts. I assumed the cord would be symmetrical and seamless like most modern ones. The right earbud has an extra long extension from where the cord spilts(1.5 to 2 feet), while the left is much shorter (~5 inches). I put it behind my...

These are SOLID ear buds!

 

I'm not sure what the other reviewer is talking about. I was in professional radio for 10+ years, and have used the highest-end headphones available...and these JVC ear buds come pretty close to those closed-ear headphones I used for years. They work...

Very sturdy construction; cord doesn't wear out. The 'buds come with several sizes of caps. Solid bass response; very good high-end as well. Works great with my 5G iPod. Cord is just long enough. 'Buds do not slip out of my ears...ever. For the price,...

None come to mind

Weird Length

 

Decent sound, plugs pretty tight into your ears... so it blocks out external sounds pretty well

the left bud has a 3 inch cord from where the cord splits and the right has a foot and a half cord from that point. the only way they can be worn is from the back, over the left shoulder. that is a little annoying. i really wish somewhere in the...

not bad at all

 

Not too bad so far. Unequal length cords leading to ear buds (Ones that came with my old Sony player were the same).If you put the long cord behind your neck it is fine, but leaving it dangling in front is not good - it catches on things. Cheap at...

3 different earbud sizes, very light & can't feel them pressing in your ears.Good

Unequal cord lengths, soft bass - heard worse though

Stick 'em in your ear

 

I bought these as a replacement for the painful stock earbuds that came with my Creative Zen Micro. I picked these over the others because of the wide frequency response, the in-ear design, the 3 different sized inserts for a good chance of fitting me,...

good fit good sound good price

unusual unequal length wire design possibly fragile

Consumer review (shopping.com)

Good clarity but very poor bass. A waste of money.

 

These ear buds are quite comfortable. I like the long cord, and they appear to be quite durable. With the right size ear fittings, they don't block out outside sound, or you can use bigger fittings and they work like ear plugs. The high frequency...

Good clarity, superb high frequency response

Very poor bass response makes these unusable

Excellent!

 

Hard to beat in it's price class. Using the in-line volume control I was able to increase the impedance which improved the sound quality from my Palm T5 dramatically. I bought an extra pair for my wife!

In-line volume control. Full bodied sound

Dont Bother With These

 

People buy earbuds for activities. The JVCs wire is way too long, and there is no way to get rid of the slack without tying it up. A problem with these earbuds is the lack of bass and this is readily evident on these headphones. If you turn the bass up...

Comfortable, Good Highs, Multiple Ear Pieces

No Bass, Too Long of Offset Cord, Poor Value
