Review:
I've only been listening with them for a little over 3 hours but am convinced that these are the best buds I've ever owned. Listening to the Pixes Doolittle which is a bass driven album, was nothing short of orgasmic, bass was tight and well rounded and although the review from Cnet claimed high end was diminished I couldn't really say that I noticed it that much. Overall seperation and stereo field was good and everything I expected and more from these buds has come to fruitition. Had them on constantly for 3 hours and experienced no discomfort, also could not hear my boss talking at me behind my back so i guess the noise cancelling works pretty well too...lol
The only thing that annoys me is why is the cable from them so short that you have to use an extention to use them in any practical application?? A small thing, but....
Overall = Really pleased with them, highly recomended.
