| | Customer Reviews: The sound is anything but cheap! (29 July 2010)Great sounding earphones. Truth be told, after listening to them, I'm ready to pay double than what I did! Used with 2nd Gen iPod Touch, Laptop and Xbox Clarity of Sound = ***** Build Quality = **** Noise Isolation = ***** Bass Response = ****1/2 Value for Money = ***** Definitely a strong contender for a second purchase. RECOMMENDED Peace Out! Good value for price (24 July 2010)This item is good for blocking out external sound, therefore you should be able to play your music quieter (which is safer for you ears) and gives good sound quality for music. The only small problem with this is, if exercising and the wire is flapping about, it makes banging noises which carries up until the ear peace. The way around this is to put the wire under your top and keep it taught wrapped around your music player. I would recommend this item for the very cheap value of it. Obviously if you want something absolutely fantastic you would be looking at the more expensive earphones, but if you are a casual listener, this item is perfect for you (for the value). Reasonable sound, fragile wires (23 July 2010)These 'phones are about right for the reduced price; they offers acceptable range and decent volume levels, but as with so many models available, they don't stand up to much wear and tear. The wires become brittle very quickly, so wrapping them neatly between uses is not practical if you want them to last. This is a common issue with lower-end purchases, but still remains annoying - some headsets at low price have sturdier wires. Not the best of the Creatives, but still good for the price (17 July 2010)I've owned Creative earphones in the past and have really liked them, however when they finally broke I couldn't buy the same ones again. So in trying these I thought they'd be similar. I find them being just as comfortable as looking the same, however the earphones do not portray the high end/treble very well at all and the bass could be must better aswel. It seems these earphones are more for the mid than anything else. All in all I am not complaining and the difficulty with highs and lows can, to a small extent be countered by altering my Zen's EQ. However I would look for other options before buying these again. (As for as the noise-insulation goes, there fine) Fragile (12 July 2010)I've had 2 pairs of these headphones. Although the sound quality is crisp and clear (if lacking bass slightly) they seemes to break after not a very long time. They only lasted a few months each at most. The first set just gave up through general use and stopped giving out sound while the second completely fell to pieces. It didn't last as long as the first. Also the buds are very prone to coming off and getting lost. These headphones are okay but you can get much better and more durable ones than these for around the same price. I found Skullcandy headphones were better. |
