What do people say
Some Positive
It’s a rarity that I find them hanging in the headphone section in the stores. The sound is great, and, if well cared for, they will last a good eight to nine months, which I think is fair for the price. Other headphones, like earbuds and over the ear headphones make my ears bleed, while the behind the head headphones have uncomfortable ear pads, and these are the only ones I can wear comfortably.

I typically use my iPod at the gym while working out. I have small ears and can’t use earbuds; I have yet to find a pair that will stay in my ears, so I am constantly readjusting earbuds and usually can’t hear well.
These headphones are light, comfortable and stay in my ears. Typically I listen to podcasts rather than music, and the sound quality is more than adequate for that. Read a full review.
Some Negative
These are the only head phones that stay on while I run or go to the gym. Earbuds do not work in my ears and the ones with over the ear clips don’t stay in place. I can easily pull them out of my ear to talk to someone. If I want to run for a bit without music, they hang around my neck without any problems. The sound is great. However, like another reviewer, I have had 3 break on me. After several months, the wire connections break either by the ear piece or the connector.

The good news is that these nearly weightless headphones sound great, and will actually stay in the ears of those of us who can’t seem to master ear buds (and seriously, what’s up with those anyway?) The bad news is that I’ve yet to have a pair of these last longer than about 3 months before one channel (usually the left) goes dead.
