Customer Ratings & Reviews

The build on this product is very good, the cable is of the flat variety which more or less makes the buds tangle proof. The connection points (to the buds and to the male plug) is robust. I did have 2 issues that may be of concern to some. The buds aren't quite as efficient as the CX 215's I own therefore they don't play as loud. Also the silicon ear plugs themselves are too slippery so much so that they tend to out of your ear if you perspire heavily.

The cord is of good/ above average quality and the packaging is rather elegant. Perhaps if the sound had a bit more bass, it might make up for the over-exceeding treble. The felt tips that go in the ear tend to slip out and cleaning your ears is required for them to stay in for more than a few minutes. My overall rating of these for the money is a 6.5 out of 10. $25 would make it a near perfect purchase.

These being Sennheiser, they definitely come through with quality. They sound very full and immersive amongst all frequencies, especially the bass. I've read other reviews that say the bass on these are just too much, often overpowering. But I found it just right, full with lots of depth. The flat cable is also well constructed so that reduces much of the cable noise... A couple gripes tho: If you have a device that allows you to EQ, do it. Straight out of the box, these sound very muddy. But with some EQing, all the clarity and bass comes through. Secondly, and this is very slight, even with the EQing, at a certain point, the highs become a little washed out so some of the full crispness is lost... Regardless, these are pretty good for the price.
