"Worst headphones I have ever used" on December 25, 2008 by sugar_dust4459

Pros: I guess they look cool. You can extend the length of the wire. Compact.

Cons: Basically everything...

Summary: I hate pretty much everything about these headphones. Even though are there are 3 different sized silicone buds for your ears, the med. and large sizes were too big, and the small ones fell out of my ears about every 15 seconds. The wires are too thin and get tangled terribly all the time. Every time I went to use these, I spent about a minute or 2 untangling them before I could use them. The package advertises that these headphones have good bass, but in fact there is none. I had to turn on the bass booster on my ipod to get a halfway decent bass sound. All of my music sounded terrible with these headphones. Also one side is longer than the other, so the shorter side would constantly fall out of my ear. In the center of the wire, there is some metal decor in the middle weighing them down and causing the earphones to fall out of my ears even more. Not that they advertised this, but they are not noise-cancelling at all. Don't buy these unless you want to get really really irritated every time you listen to your music.

By the way, I just bought a pair of JVC HA FX34 Marshmallow ear buds the other day, and I couldn't be happier. They fit comfortably, they completely block outside sound, the cords don't tangle, and the sound quality is excellent. They were the same price as these phillips, but 10000x better!!
