Excellent Earbuds
First of all, there's one very important thing to be said: I'm using an iPod Mini. I'm really amazed with the sound that this small electronic device can supply.. The sound is so great that I even believed at first that the Apple headphones were great. Of course, after some time I started to notice the lack of sound quality, isolation and bass.
After searching the web for earbuds, I've noticed that there are 2 very different types:
- flat earbuds (just like the Apple's)
- ca...

Possibly the Best Earbud Headphones Period
I just bought my third pair of these headphones and that would be my only complaint -- they seem to be less durable than other non-earbud headphones.
I inadvertently crushed my first pair while walking. I took out my earbuds, lost my grip, and the right one hit the pavement just in time to meet the sole of my on-coming shoe. My fault on that one.
My second pair started to short after 3 solid years use. I am a musician/producer, and I love listening to music whenever I ...

Almost Perfect
I got these headphones and also the MDR-EX51LP, I liked these better than the MDR-EX51LP because the sounds it produced was crisper and overall just much better. My only problem with these is that the chord is a little short, just a little over 3ft.
I didn't choose the MDR-EX51LP because that the bass was way too loud. I know that people like bass, but whenever you listen to songs with lyrics all you can hear is the bass, and the spoken stuff gets drowned a bit.
I like th...

Big bang for the buck!
I purchased these headphones to use with my portable DVD player. I've never had much luck with earbud style headphones staying in my ear so I was reluctant to buy these. However, I took a chance hoping for better results.
The 21's fit even better than I expected. It takes far more than a simple head tilt to jar them loose and, at the same time, they felt very comfortable in my ear.
Next, I plugged them into my DVD player. When I read about the "high sonic output" in the pr...

Best Buds for the money
I love these phones! I actually have two sets now, i thought i lost the first and missed them so much after a week of using the crappy Apple 'phones that i ordered another set. Found the old ones a week later in the shirt pocket of a shirt that had been washed. They still worked! They are really comfortable after you wear them for a few days. Initally the earpieces are kinda stiff, and they feel weird, simply because of how they're made, but they're like a good pair of shoes: the first few...

These are the best I tryed out of the following:
I bought to try the following earphones: Koss KSC9, which are earphones with clips over the ears, Koss KSC22 which are with clips over the ears as well. I wanted the clip so that the earphones would not fall out from my ear so easely, And these two models do not fall from the ear no matter what you do. But the sound quality is depending at the way you will insert them to your ears. But Sony MDR ED21LP was a surprise to me: not only they fit so well in my ears, they will hold them selves very nic...

Best sub-$100 earphones, and cheap!
I've tried all sorts of earphones, and these are the best for under $100 (best I've tried that costs more are the Etymotics). They're cheap, the bass response is wonderful thanks to the extra over the bud 'horn'. You will get much better sound than you will with the flat buds (even the $50 ones) without actually sticking something right in your ear canal.
I use my trusty pair of these with my iPod Nano. For only $10-15 they sound so much better than the headphones that came with the N...

Nice sound, very good bass, great headphones!
Noticed the difference from the first time I tried them. Bass and sound quality are just great! (I had to turn the bass boost off in my Zire 71). No complaints.

Uncomfortable
I bought a set of these to replace my original iPod earphones when they started malfunctioning. On the good side, the sound is decent. On the bad side, these earbuds are very uncomfortable. After more than a week of usage, I still can't find a positioning that will let me wear them for more than an hour without getting seriously annoyed. Also the cord is both short and not as convenient as iPod cords when it comes to folding/unfolding, tangling/untangling.
I wish there was a way of te...

Not Pleased
I bought these ear phones after reading previous reviews. My use consists of listening to Ipod while on machines at the gym and riding my bicycle (off road). These are so uncomfortable I cannot use them. They sound so bad I don't want to use them. However, because the package is open, I cannot return them.
Comfort: They appear to be an earbud type of headphone, but with a cover which directs sound into your ear canal. The cover is 'shrink-wrapped' to the earphone, and a small p...
