3 out of 5 stars Okay -- Not bad but not fantastic   April 21, 2008
I bought this headphone going by the ratings and reviews from other users. I am not satisfied with the sound quality. It is not rich and deep enough.

If asked to compare I will still rate my original Apple earphones better than these. They have got excellent clarity and cover both high and low ends. The only problem I had with those was that I had to use black sponge earphone covers which my brother gave me. Without those sponges Apple earphones dont stay in my ears even for few mins.

For people those who disagree with me on sound quality, I would like to mention that I use Bose On-Ear headphones. No questions asked when Bose is mentioned because they are stunning when comes to sound quality.

So comparing Bose on-ear with Apple and these Sony ED21LP in ear ones.. Apple ones are definately better. Any earphone which just give bit more of bass doesnt mean that it has got good sound quality. Clarity and coverage of treble, depth of Bass everything counts.

Those who are finding replacement for Apple ones, I will say just try to find the sponge covers and you will notice improvement in sound quality because they fit bit more close to ears providing richer bass and very clear treble plus they stay in ear.

If you still looking for replacement, I will say spend once but go for really great brands like Bose in-ear or Shure kind of.. You will get quality for money you spend.

I dont recommend these sony ones to those who are looking for rich quality. These are good for those who just want to listen music with quality and dont bother rich quality.

Only positive: They fit in ears perfect and tried shaking my head like anything but they didn't moved even 1 cm.. So good when you are walking or are in tube.





3 out of 5 stars Lead is too short   March 28, 2008

I bought this 1 month ago and after using it a few times, I've come to the conclusion that the lead is is too short to keep to my IPod comfortably in a trouser pocket - it's just over 1 metre long. I now have to buy an extension lead for it. No lead length is mentioned in the product description.

Really good peair of earphones, our second set as the one of the first pair packed up after about a year. However, for convenience of use, performance and price, no problems with recommending these to any prospective purchaser.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent sound quality, poor build quality.   February 26, 2008

I have a love/hate relationship with these things.

They have the best sound quality I've heard from any set of headphones, they're pretty comfortable and the in ear part helps to block out unwanted noise. I'd definitely recommend them on these counts.

The problem is that they're quite fragile. In the last year or so I've gone through two sets, which is a more than I'd like. Sure, at 12 they're not that expensive to replace every six months but it's the hassle of doing with a lesser set or none at all while I try to find time to buy a new set.

Excellent headphones, but be prepared to replace them relatively often.



5 out of 5 stars BUY BUY BUY!!!!!!   January 29, 2008
I cannot praise these earphones enough. I use these with my ipod and the sound is exactly right for me. The bass is clear at all volumes with the right amount of treble. Very comfortable and never fall out, I use whilst at work (landscaping) and I'm always moving about.
I listen to all types of music and they can handle everything.
