"Not nearly as good as the JBuds." on October 27, 2008 by miniblaster

Pros: I wasn't satisfied with the product.

Cons: The cable was flimsy, they were uncomfortable, and sound and poor.

Summary: After throwing these away, I tried the JBuds J2 from JLab Audio for $30 on Amazon.com. I was blown away by the style, quality, and comfort. The beat the V-Moda hands down.

4.5 stars

"Spectacular bass, overall very good earbuds" on October 26, 2008 by smallfry560

Pros: phenomenal bass, good sound isolation, overall sound quality is equal to many other uber-high priced earbuds (e.g. Shure)

Cons: cords management... a little more to desire from the mids and highs

Summary: Overall, i was very happy to own these earbuds. Even though there are a bit more to be desired from the mids and highs, for the price, i was very satisfied. I compared them to my friend's Shure E2s and I feel like my V-modas are even better. Only annoying part is the cord management problem--tangles easily and the modawrap doesn't really do the job.

"Absolute affordable (Sound) QUALITY!" on October 17, 2008 by Sebastian_Santo

Pros: Decent sound, perfect to use on-the-go, easy wearable design

Cons: Muffled sound on some songs, thin wire easy to break, cheap looks

Summary: I just received my V-Moda Bass Freq (Bling Bling Black) and I need to say that, provided it's my first time with in-ear earbuds, the sound quality of this is pretty decent. Tschaikowsky sounds simply AWESOME, some electronica songs sound very good; others, not only electronica sound kinda muffled but I discovered part of that i because I was practically shoving the tips all the way into my drums....now i adjusted them and they sound better but still some songs sound muffled.

As to the looks, I wish these looked like the Vibe ones, those are pretty stylish, these look like 2003 Sony walkman's...lol

Ah, one more thing: same shape on both earphones makes it difficult to know which is R and which L without having to look at the respective letters

"Hey, they are great. And cheap." on September 29, 2008 by evman2021

Pros: I like my in ear bass.
Comfortable feel, and with a design that can serve as a somewhat noise canceler.
Pre-tty.

Cons: Somewhere along the wire, they can go bad.

Summary: So far I've had them about half a year, and enjoy them a lot, however a month prior I had to look up an instructable about swapping ear bud wires. The wire of the v-moda are already kind of flimsy, but the problem for me came in the connector that would only work when halfway inserted. So overall the sound is good, especially for the price. They are comfortable, at least for me (and I have had trouble with all sorts of other earbuds). And they aren't hard to swap wires in, which is good considering my need to swap. So I still have them and glad for it.
