Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the superb sound quality, deep bass, and comfortable fit of these earbud headphones. Many appreciate their lightweight design and reasonable price. A common suggestion is the addition of volume control on the cord. The tangle-free cord is also a frequently praised feature.

    These earbuds have great sound quality. The bass is strong, but not overbearing and muddy. They have very good sonic clarity. Midrange and high frequencies are reproduced very well, too; making the overall sound well-balanced. The only minor drawback is there is no volume control built in, but with voice control; you can adjust that just fine.

    The sound, the quality, out of this world. I got them on sale for about $30 and holy smokes these were worth every penny. Also very durable. I got the 2 year replacement plan because i plan on stick to these for a long time.

    These sound amazing for the money, even better if you grab them for the sale price they're often found at. I haven't heard bass and mids like this in really anything under $100. I'd put the Klipsch R6's right up there with these though, but for different reasons, different sound. I find the mids just the smallest bit pushed back, but not much and the bass comes to life on these beauties. Highs are good, not sharp at all which is good in my opinion, I'm all about that bass, no treble... sorry for that, don't think less of me now. Comfort is very good for me, but this is subjective and largely depends on the tips you select. You'll want to install the largest tips you can comfortably wear too, because that's going to give you the best seal and thus the best bass response (in other words, tighter fit better bass). Call quality is decent, but come on guys, we're not getting this set for calls are we?! Nah, it's that Sony bass. I really like the cable on these (think miniature vacuum cleaner cord), it's durable and doesn't do to much in the way of microphonics (Google that word if curious, you'll learn something). Overall I am giving these 5 stars for the price/performance ratio, I wouldn't want to be without mine.

    This is actually my second pair of these. I bought an extra pair while they were on sale to take with me when I travel. My original set has held up very well despite hours of daily use and they still work great. They have a very crisp sound with a good mix on the bass and their earbuds offer me great noise reduction. I've tried bose, sennheiser, and AT, but these are hands down my favorite.

    These headphones have good sound quality for the price point. They come with extra earbud covers that adjist the thickness of the earbud. They have great quality base.

    I purchased these earbuds to replace my Beats earbuds that became damaged. At first I was skeptical because these were so much more inexpensive. I'm glad I purchased these because the sound is rich and full just like my old Beats earbuds without the high price. These even fit in my ear a lot better due to the way they are designed. Snug fit and cancels out outside noise. Very happy with these. You don't have to spend over a hundred dollars for quality earbuds. Get these.

    I like these buds. They stay in my ears better than my beats buds and sound just as good if not better. I would give 5 stars if you could control volume from mic piece. You can change tracks but not volume!

    Great headphones. Sound is full with bass you can feed for earbud style headphones. Very comfortable. Comes with multiple sets/sizes of ear plugs to create a seal when you wear the headphones.

    If you're looking for a decent pair of headphones with great bass, you won't go wrong with this selection. The clarity of sound and the quality of the bass is outstanding. Great for use on a bus, plane, etc.

    I bought these as a replacement for some of my light weight running earphones. These are are not the light weight kind I am used to. I am sure they will stay in, but they were too heavy for me. HOWEVER, once I got past that, these are some of the best general purpose earphones I've ever had. Great quality sound, volume, and bass.

    Best Bass for the Price by Far

    These headphones in my opinion are my new favorite set and are now my day to day used set. They are lightweight, feel comfortable and sound very nice to me. I can get a nice set of highs, mids and these do have a slightly increased bass compared to the others and my OEM Samsung type. What makes these stand apart from others is the excellent bass without loss of mids-highs and how the bass is not overly done or distorted. It is solid yet full.

    Decent sound, comfortable to wear. There are better ones out there, but I too often tend to break or lose earbuds in all my travels. Bought on sale and with reward points so if I have them for a year, I'll be happy!

    The headphones are extra bass and it will be liked for the people who enjoy bass. But if you don't enjoy extra bass, don't buy this. Also note that there is no volume control equipped with these if you are using Iphone.

    I was very surprised with the overall sound quality. These were better than expected, sound quality is outstanding in my opinion. The extra bass is tight and does not overpower the clarity. I listen to mostly old school rap, hip hop, and r&b. Fit is comfortable, I wore them for 4 hrs while working on my car, never experienced any pain and had no issues with them falling out.

    They’re pretty great. I just needed some with a microphone so I could record things for school and I’ve been using them for a long time. I really love the sound and how they don’t bother my ears. I’ve had them for more than a year and they’re still awesome and when I first bought them. Totally recommend them.
