"A ton of features that are well worth the price." on by deegrin
Pros: These earbuds are very ergonomic. But not only that, their sound quality is through the roof, especially with the interchangeable earbuds. Reverse Sound Technology makes for a comfortable and safe listening experience!
Cons: Not many cons, I just wished the cord was nylon. Haha.
Summary: I recently acquired a pair of these very buds, provided by http://www.amazingtechproducts.com and http://www.purebudsrevolution.com. Might I say that these are the highest quality earbuds I have ever used, in all aspects. Perhaps the first noticeable feature is the asymmetrical and ergonomic design of the cord: the left side wire is short and the right side wire is long so that the cord remains out of the way. But what ends up blowing your mind away, almost literally, is the adjustable high sound quality provided by the interchangeable earbud tips. You can almost imagine a sound equalizer change as you listen to the full range, bass boost, and surround sound tip. By far, my favorite is the bass boost tip in combination with the bass boost setting on my music phone, the thumping is incredible and best of all: the earbuds are designed for ultimate safety and comfort! Reverse Sound technology and the earbud shape allows you to listen to music for hours at a time, you won't experience discomfort from the speaker vibration or an uncomfortable earbud. These earbuds are well worth it if you're a sound junkie and the protective case is a plus!

"I can hear the music and my surroundings" on by LeahMichelleTaylor
Pros: The sound doesn't feel as if you're taking off years from your hearing and you can also hear what's going on around you. The cord's design prevents becoming tangled while running.
Cons: The earbuds are exposed somewhat, especially with the surround-sound tips, so if you're running a full 26 mile marathon, your sweat might come into contact with the hardware. I haven't had an issue yet though!
Summary: I was just getting used to being annoyed while running and working out by my earphone cord when I got my hands on these Purebuds. What a difference! Unlike the traditional 'Y,' this cord is designed with a short left side and a longer right, allowing the cord to stay to one side and out of the way (rather than your arm getting tangled). I also enjoyed how I could hear the music AND hear what was going on around me, which is very important while running. Not that earbuds are really heavy to begin with, but these are pretty light and aren't uncomfortable. They come with three different attachments depending on the experience you prefer: surround sound, bass boost, and full range. The best way to hear the difference is to try all three with the same song. You know how you hear a plane flying over a scene in a movie, and the sound seems to be coming from the left, then it gets fuller, then 'moves' to the right as it grows faint? You can definitely have that experience with these Purebuds, or not; it's up to you!

"Impressive set of Earphones." on by Benmk
Pros: I plugged my Purebuds into my cell phone the sound is down right AMAZING. I listened to everything from Johnny Cash to Eminem. I tried Ipod touch and listened to the same songs the music sounded better but its designed for music.
Cons: I have thus far used my earphones to listen to Itunes on my laptop, the quality from my laptop left some to be desired but it is a three old laptop
Summary: I received my Purebuds Earphones on March 19th. I have thus far used my earphones to listen to Itunes on my laptop, the quality from my laptop left some to be desired but it is a three old laptop. However I plugged my Purebuds Earphones into my mobile phone (Samsung Moment, Sprint) and the quality of the sound is as far as I'm concerned is down right AMAZING. I listened to everything from Johnny Cash to Eminem and Martina McBride. Next I plugged my Purebuds Earphones into my 1st Gen Ipod touch and listened to the same songs. I thought the music sounded better on the Ipod but then again it is designed to play music. I tried out two of the three included Purebuds Earphones silicone tips. The Full Range tips work very well for all of the music I listened to, it was very clean with no distortion even when I turned it up as loud as I could stand it. The Bass boost tips work great for listening to Hip-Hop or rap music, I could definitely hear the added Bass tones. I felt no need to to try the Surround Sound tips for my music.
I went back to my laptop to try out a movie with my Purebuds Earphones. I chose Top Gun for the opening music, this is how I test all my audio equipment. I did use the Surround Sound tips for the movie and they sound great. I tried the Bass Boost tips for fun on the movie and there was more bass tones but you do not need it. I thought the Full Range tips worked best for the movie I chose. The sound was very clean. I turned on my TV and turned up the volume while listening to my Ipod touch and I could still very clearly hear the music. And the Purebuds Earphones did not drown out every ambient noise around me while listening at a moderate level. I like this especially while riding my bike.
I think they are very comfortable. I have had a hard time finding a set of earphones that fit comfortably in both of my ears or will even stay in my ears and the Purebuds Earphones do just that.
Over all I think you would be hard pressed to find a better sounding set of earphones, especially at the cost of the Purebuds Earphones. I like the selection of the silicone tips and how they enhance the choice of music or video. I am very pleased with my Purebuds Earphones. I will be using them each time I need to use earphones. -

"way better than ipod earbuds" on by alteredlife
Pros: the full range earbuds are super comfy, one of the only earbuds that ever fit me. Silicon buds are far superior to foam-covered earbuds. the sound quality is great, very vibrant and focused. the carrying case is a nice touch.
Cons: the surround sound earbuds don't fit at all. the bass boost fit, but give a distorted sound, (think bass booster in the trunk of the car next to you at a stoplight). i thinktheir too expensive, but some people will think it is totally worth it.
Summary: they seem a little pricey, but the sound quality is really quite excellent. the comfort is far above average earbuds, as long as the silicone buds will fit your ears. these are probably way better than whatever you are using now.
