"Good, but not perfect"
3.5 starson by d_adamsPros: Great bass. Perfect for watching movies like Transformers, Star Trek, etc; sounds like the movie theatre! Good with -most- music. Sounds great with electronic (owl city). Nice design; like the silver cherry.
Cons: Bass is a little too strong for some music (folk, symphonic, and certain indie tracks). It tends to wash out mids, highs, and low volume vocals. Mids and highs are never 'perfect' it seems. They're sometimes a little below the quality I'd like.
Summary: I bought these to replace my Apple In-Ear headset, which I loved...until it broke after 5 months of use. These phones are an adequate replacement. They are not quite as balanced as the Apple phones, but they beat them in the bass department by a long shot. They also look a little tougher, but we'll see about that in the next year or so. The bottom line is, they sound great for the price.
