"Nowhere near as good as they should be."
Pros: Vocals come through crisp.
Absolutely excellent isolation.Cons: Expensive.
Summary: I picked up a pair of these SE110s yesterday, and I'll be returning them tommorow. They'll beat the earphones that were bundled with your iPod, but not by near as much as they should. A ~$75 price-tag is disgraceful; make no mistake, these do not sound like $75 earphones. My last pair of Audio Technica earphones were less than half of what the SE110s cost me, and I'd have them again over the SE110s.
Sound quality does not come close to matching the price tag.
Absolutely no bass, regardless of configuration or fit.
Low and medium end are reproduced very poorly, translating to an extremely tinny sound with overbearing vocals.
They'll make just about any song in your library sound tinny, and forget about anything with bass in it - you'll hardly hear it, let alone feel it. By all means, treat yourself to some nice inner-earphones, just make sure it's not these. You'll feel cheated.
