 not very durable,and not easy to use. sound is ok though October 30, 2008
when I travel with these, I have to be careful that the extended pad doesn't come off. try to find that little thing when it falls off on the plane. they are made to be changed around for size, but not very durable. also, this item comes with a case that is a very strange shape. maybe they were trying to make it look 'cool' or artsy or something, but it takes about 3 minutes and as challenging as a sudoku puzzle to try to get the earbuds and cord to fit inside. most of the time I can't get the case completely shut. i have started to just carry them around in a ziploc bag since the case is useless. ALSO, on the first time i opened the package the long, chrome colored piece of the body (the part farthest from your ear) fell off. I had to super-glue it, now it's fine. another piece that would have surely been lost already.

(REAL NAME)
I really had high expectations for this and wanted it to work so bad because I was willing to spend $12 on it (the street one). I expected the vol to be low because i had read reviews, but i was willing to accept that in hopes that the fit would be right. even all the random sizing accessories couldn't make the thing fit in my ear. The bud was too fat and the top thing didn't help at all (the angle of the bend was too great it couldn't even make contact with my ear).
As far as the sound goes...sounded muffled, some bass. I normally have my mp3 play vol on 10/24 when it's quiet, but these required somewhere between 14-19/24.
I attribute the fit to my asian ears, but I much prefer my Panasonic Ear Drops (RP-HV21) which cost me $8.12 here on amazon. The fit was nearly perfect and the sound is decent (I'm not an audiophile).
 best headphones I've owned October 25, 2008
these things are great. great sound, comfort, quality. If you have any problems with the bass not sounding deep enough, thats because they're not fitted in your ear properly. These are a must have if you intend to use them while you exercise.
 Sennheiser MX 55 earphones October 24, 2008
The quality of the product is fine but the padding around the earbuds and the supporting padding areas are the worst. I lose the padding on a consistent basis. The casing is an exercise of design over function. In order to put the ear phones back in the case, if takes a minute or two.
Difficult to stay in ear and fell apart after a year of use October 21, 2008
I bought these earphones after reading tons of glowing reviews about how they perfectly they fit in your ear. When I received it, it does come with several pieces to fit different size ears, but I could never find the right combination that would allow me to not adjust the earphones at all while running. I find that when I am running, I keep having to push the earphones back in. They are only a step above the earbuds that come with your ipod in terms of staying in your ears. I think my ears are medium sized. The other issue I have with it is that after less than a year of use, the earphones do not relay sound consistently. I keep having to adjust the wire, otherwise I can't hear at all from one side or the other. This is particularly an issue when running outdoors with the wind moving the wires around. I am currently shopping for a new pair of earphones for working out.
