After reading the reviews for these headphones, I thought I would give them a go - at this price if they were rubbish it wouldn't matter... I had just tried some Sennheiser CX300's of a friends and was not impressed with the lack of bass, these out perform the Sennheisers hands down and would recommend them over the CX300's to anyone. The bass is far better, and the trebles more controlled. They don't have the greatest build quality in the world, but having said that they are worth every penny and then some. If you are in the same boat as I was, trying to find reviews for a decent set of headphones under £50 then give them a go - I found lots of reviews for the likes of Sennheiser CX300's, Skull Candy's etc, but they all differed, some people giving 5/5, others giving 2/5 and it was getting frustrating. It seems as though headphone preference is a personal opinion, and if, like me you are not sure then I would say go for these, you can't go wrong really!!
Excellent for the price

From the moment I opened the box, I knew these 'phones were quality kit; well- packaged with a hard case (with an integral cord-winder) and looking sleek and sexy in black, these stood out from others I've used. I plugged them into my Touch - expecting them to simply replace my previous pair (which I'd been very happy with). Well, these babies just about knocked me out! They were fantastic with an thrilling dynamic range, solid sound cancellation and a sturdy main cord that wound easily into the case (and didn't tangle, either!). The BASS is awesome and the high end is punchy and bright - without being overwhelming. I get a real 3-D feel from these 'phones - I think you will too! My only quibble is I'd have liked the cord to have been asymmetrical so that I could easily tell the left from the right (and they'd stay around my neck more easily... but that's a personal thing.) Get these - you definitely can't beat quality and performance at this price!
Great 'phones for a CrAzY Price!

I purchased a set of these earphones for my wife for xmas to go with a new ipod and can safely say that they are the best earphones that have used so far. The sound is really clear and the bass on them is brilliant. They are comfortable which for me is a big thing. I have used a lot of earphones including some Bose in ear, Sennheiser sports and the classic default apple headphones. The sound insulation is great as well. I have been in a room with people shouting my name and could hardly hear them.
Best Earphones so far!!!!!

these earphones were not the most comfortable in the world and tended to slip out despite coming with 3 different size buds. But they have an rlly rlly amazing bass sound and they really do cancel out the noise, so watch out for cars !
amazing bass, sound cancelling,good value

These earphones have proved to be a very good purchase for me. To be honest i wasn't expecting the earphones to be outstanding, but the sound quality is actually very good indeed and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality.
