 Listen carefully! August 29, 2008
The Galloping Major (UK)
Well let me say that I really liked these earphones. When my first pair arrived I liked them so much I immediately ordered a second as the price seemed so reasonable. They certainly did the job of cutting out the thumping dance beats at the gym and allowed me to listen to podcasts and my own choice of music in relative peace. When the first pair lost sound in the right earpiece after a few months use I assumed I might have snagged the cord and caused it myself; so I simply opened pair number two. But when exactly the same fault occurred, I read this comments list more fully and saw that others had suffered exactly the same fate. Well, I've just been on the phone to Amazon, was given the number of Creative Labs HQ in Ireland, got a reference number off them, called Amazon back and will shortly be returning the earphones and getting a refund. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful. A bit of messing around and one international phone call to the worse but it's the principle rather than the price that made me determined to sort it out. Sadly it's twice bitten, thrice shy. I shall be hunting for different pair very shortly...
 short lived excellence August 29, 2008
B. Foster (London)
As an awful lot of otherpeople have already stated about this product, they give excellent sound quality and are excellent for blocking out peripheral noise (excellent for London Buses!) BUT! they seem to have such a ridiculously short lifespan. I've had mine for little over a month and am already experiencing a similar problem to many other users whereby the sound in the right ear-piece cuts out frequently. You can fix this by wiggling around the jack but this is an exercise in frustration as it clearly loses sound again.
In short 5 stars for product when working, 1 star for longevity!
 Fantastic quality, low price. August 21, 2008
Mr B W B (UK)
I have never found a pair of headphones better than these for the price. They have good balance, they are good with all of those different technical frequancy stuff, which I've read about and agree with fully. They've got very good bass and are quite comfortable. I have to buy another pair though because I threw away the spare rubber ear bits and then lost the one on the earphone. But I don't mind because look at the price, BARGAIN!!!!
Many of my friends and family have bought the same ones as me because these are so good.
Wonderful August 18, 2008
Fantasyreader (Southampton, UK)
Using these as replacement for supplied earphones and no wonder I was getting ear irritation, these with the supplied rubbers for ear insertion make listening a very comfortable experience.
Eight Quid.....Bargain August 18, 2008
Lucky Archbold (Wirral, Merseyside United Kingdom)
Just received these little beauties through the post, ultra fast delivery by Amazon as usual.
I'll cut the bull, they are 8 quid, they knock spots off the pathetic earphones you will receive with your ipod.
My tip, ditch them immediately and buy yourself a pair of these. Bargain hunters will not be disappointed, all you designer branded, image conscious freaks might as well move on and read an anoraks review instead.
Really comfortable and actually stay in your ears.
Nothing more to add, you are looking at these earphones for a reason, they are brilliantly priced and they work...
