I just bought a set of these from Best Buy (special thanksgiving sale netted me a 35% discount). The construction of these earbuds seem pretty good and I particularly like the cloth-wrapped cord. However, The sound is a bit strange. Maybe I was expecting the earbuds to have the sound of angels for their retail price, but phones’ shrilly high-ends are really disappointing. The bass is really strong while the high and mid ends (particularly in the vocals) are weak. Maybe I’ll need to burn them in.
Still, this was a nice little treat for hours at the library. Combining that with my new messenger bag, I am kinda liking going to school. Moot, here we go.
