 Rubbish Build Quality January 7, 2009
marv101 (UK)
At first when I got these, they were a bit weird, but after reading other reviews, I felt the same as them - you get used to it. They do block out external sound to a degree and you can really hear yourself (especially breath or if you knock on the wires - it's like a stethoscope if you've ever used one) if you attach the correct size ear bud on. The bass is really good, however, the treble is RUBBISH. I read that on another review and I wanted to know what he meant so I altered the treble settings on my actual speakers when listening to music and then on my iPod Touch with these earphones and I really know what they mean. Treble really brings out the vocals in music tracks, and these make it rubbish.
I got over that until 6 months down the road, they break. Not through my fault, but through normal use - not even that frequent! The back has come off and Creative won't send me new ones saying I've physically damaged them. I can't clip the back on either as the sound is now terrible.

 Good But don't expect Fantastic January 6, 2009
P. Henderson (UK)
Basically you get what you pay for.. Gone through two pairs of these and for 7 a pair they are good.
They sound great when you first get them but after a couple of month you notice you have to turn the volume up to get a decent sound.. Which I don't like to do..
So they are ok, if you just want a cheap pair with decent sound but expect to be back on here after a few months looking for another pair..
 love these earphones January 5, 2009
Peanut (Manchester, England)
Bought as a spare set of earphones for my new Sony Walkman MP3 - really prefer them to the Sony ones supplied. Great sound - easy to use and comfortable to wear. I would recommend these to anyone. A bargain price and free delivery from Amazon. Excellent value.
 Just one gripe January 5, 2009
C. Harrison (wirral Merseyside)
The only gripe I have is the Left and the Right speaker wire are the same length. This means I can't wrap the longer lead around my neck. This is useful when you take them out of your ears, and let them hang around your neck, like a stethoscope. This is useful if you need to take them out of your ears briefly to talk to someone.This old design means they just drop to the floor. Apart from this baffling omission they are good value for money. I have owed a few pairs of sennheiser cx300 and these are very similar, However if your budget can stretch a little further I would go for the CX300
VERY VERY NICE January 2, 2009
Miles J. Hart (Swansea UK)
I didn't buy these direct, however Dell ship these with they're top-of-the-range laptop ( 3,000)
And these are the best headphones I've ever used, I misplaced these just before going on a business trip, and bought a 70 pair from the duty-free, and the didn't compare.
