Great Deal

I grabbed these for less than $20 with free shipping. They sound good. Not great, just good. I'm glad I didn't pay full price. The cord is too short for my liking making it difficult to move around if I have my phone or iPod in my pocket. I wish there were more sizes of ear tips because these don't fit so well in my ears. I had to use the tips from my Beats to get a good fit. All in all they are decent headphones. Not the best I've ever had, but far from the worst. Much better than Beats but not as good as Shure I've ordered some JBL in ear headphones so we'll see if they are any better.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great earbuds, but the price is too steep.

After the hassle of returning my first set (they were damaged when I received them) I finally got to use my NI's. Originally I wrote a scathing review of these ear buds but I've reconsidered some of my points since then.
1-Sound. The sound clarity of these ear buds is fantastic. Highs and mids are clear and distinct from each other. Bass is there, but I still feel it is lacking. Watching Netflix on my tablet made me realize how much sound I was missing.
2-Comfort. I find these buds very comfortable in the ears but the cord! Ugh! The cord still hasn't relaxed from it's shipping form. It's like having a slinky stuck in on your face. I was listening to them last night and I couldn't figure out where the source of a scraping sound until I realized it was my chin rubbing against the cord as I breathed. Hopefully it will eventually relax.
So in the end I've decided I really like these ear buds, but not necessarily for music and definitely not at the list price. I got mine on sale at a steep discount and I feel they were worth what I paid, but I would not recommend them at the list price. I wouldn't pay more then $45 for them...but I'm very cheap so take that with a grain of salt.

I will admit that I was put off when i initially received these buds but after using them more they warmed up to be much better than expected.
Many Users seemed to complain about the lack of bass but after using them for more than a week of moderate volume the sound actually became clearer than when i first received them.
They are very clear and seem to put out nicer sounds than your average set.
As long as you warm up to them and are not blasting at a ridiculous volume level they are great.

My main gripe with the set is the plastic cable material used. They do not tangle but get in the way due to the fact they maintain their shape if you keep them rolled up.

These earphones are some of my favorite that I have ever owned. They are not only comfortable, but they also have lasted for many years. My biggest issue with them is that the back of the earphones broke off, which leaves the technology inside susceptible to damage. Besides this issue, I have been quite satisfied with my purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!
