Wish it had a button for stopping/volume/skipping tracks but just on sound alone, I highly recommend it. Great highs and middle that are extremely clear and bright. The bass has depth and isn't just there for just bass sake.
** Update Nov 2015 - the headphone bud area that connects to the metal outer portion separated. :(
I don't treat my headphones with the utmost care, but I don't throw them around either. Sorry I can't gauge if this is a fluke or a defect. Still, I stand by the sound and would probably purchase again to replace.
I got these after several pairs of Skullcandy and JLab earbuds bit the dust. These sound significantly better than those. I also have some $200 Pioneer DJ headphones, so I have some kind of reference point for what "good" sounds like. These hold their own against the Pioneers, but lose out in bass reproduction.
The sound is very clear across the frequency spectrum. Since I'm using these primarily for bass-intensive music, I suspect audiophiles would find them unbalanced toward that end.
Build quality is good, but I worry about the lack of strain relief on the 3-button remote. I have a feeling that's where failure will occur one of these days when the wire pulls on something at the gym.
Overall, these headphones are a joy to listen to. Plus, the gold and black is a sexy-looking combination. Highly recommended.
06/07/14 These are my go to buds of the six I own I grab these almost every time. I no longer hate the two piece cord it has probably kept from either breaking my Ipod or my buds I think it`s a very good thing now. All I can say is if you are thinking of spending some big money on ear buds, try these first give them 50 hrs. of burn in, you will not be sorry.
The packaging was great and the extra pouch for storage is really nice. She uses this with her iPhone 5 and with her iPad 4
The downsides:
1.) The volume adjustment is a wheel that doesn't interact with the iOS software. It is similar to the method used in older headphones before smart phones. This means you have both iOS volume control and manual volume control. If your iPhone’s volume is set really low, the wheel won’t impact the volume much on the headphones.
2.) The microphone and controls are wired too far down the cord. My wife has to hold the cord up to her mouth to get good volume when she is speaking. It is not as convenient as Apple’s included earbud microphone.
Despite these two downsides, I still highly recommend these headphones because they sound so great and you do have adequate control over the audio playing through them.
- I took note of the presence of bass. It's there, and satisfies all but the extreme bass heads.
- The mids and highs (if that makes sense) seemed didn't seem to be as clear as others have claimed.
- From my perspective, it seemed as though these headphones are settled for darker, punchier music.
- Instrument separation was surprisingly good, I took note of some percussion and backing vocals that I didn't catch before on some of my other headsets.
Some things to keep in mind, before these headphones, I frequently used the Sony MDR-V6 Monitor Series Headphones with CCAW Voice Coil and Grado Prestige Series SR-60i Padded Headphones, so it's possible that my preferences are just accustomed to the mentioned products above.
Again, I'm not a an audiophile, but I do enjoy my music being reproduced with respectable quality, and for what these IEM's offer, they are definitely respectable. After burning these in, they'll only get better, so my advice is to pick these up if your looking to replace or add on to to your headphone situation.
EDIT:
Well howdy, it's been over 3 weeks since my review, and these IEM's are holding their ground. The "burn in," be it psychologically or with actual work on the drivers, has really made the ATH CKM500's sound fantastic. The emphasis on bass and the low ends is still there, but it's not as overwhelming in comparison to the treble as was straight out of the box. In short, its sound signature more sincere compared to 3 weeks ago. Build quality is still holding up, and the sound isolation is acceptable enough for me when used on my daily commute via bus.
I'm bumping this up to 5 stars, as I now see why those on Head-Fi regarded these IEM's as comparable to to $100+ IEM's. Simply outstanding in the <$75 price range.
I strongly recommend you to check out the reviews at this site ([...] It has great reviews, discussions, and comparisons against many well known IEMs.
To put it in the perspective, the sound quality of these earphones are close to full size ATH-M50. I am not kidding. And if you don't know ATH-M50, then Google it. You will find lots of great reviews on ATH-M50.
As other reviewers mentioned, the placement of the microphone is not optimal. And if you are using the mic a lot, it may bother you as you would have to hold the mic close to your mouse while you speak. But on other hand, it is easier to see the button and volume control since it is NOT next to your chin. This make actually easy for me to use - since I don't talk on the phone a lot.
Despite the placement of the mic, because of the great sound quality and price (and I don't mind the location of the mic), I don't hesitate to give 5 stars on these earphones. And I recommend them to everyone and will buy it again.
While the earbuds themselves are quality, I would not recommend purchasing them due to the bizarre design choices of the placement of the microphone part.
As a professional in the audio field I am no stranger to the way things should sound, and given if a person was used to generic $5 chain store earbuds they would probably think these were nearly amazing, these do not perform on the price point they are selling for to me... Save some money and try the TS Rains...
The sound...with hundreds worth of audio equipment you'll hear why multi-hundred dollar earphones are better than these;
but with a stand-alone phone, they hold their own.
If you're an average consumer looking for something you wont have to think about replacing for a long time, get 'em!
Works well for calls in the car, in the office and outdoors.
Excellent ambient sound isolation.
Excellent incoming sound. Excellent outgoing sound, when microphone is raised towards the mouth.
Only problem I face is that the microphone hangs low, I have to raise it towards the mouth when speaking. I end up tying the cord to the top button of my shirt to keep the microphone close when speaking; then it works very well. Inclusion of a small clip in the package would have helped a lot. However with the microphone raised, the cord length from microphone to phone connector becomes short.
The shortcoming due to microphone placement and cord length prevents me from giving five stars.
Bass: The bass is well extended, very clean with no signs of distortion whether it's through my iPod, laptop, or O2+ODAC combo. The bass hits hard and is quick, but the mid-bass is a bit pushy, this may change with burn-in though.
Mids: The mids are intimate, clean and smooth. These are the most realistic mids I have come across in my endeavors for an IEM.
Highs: Well extended, no added sibilance, and balanced really well with the overall signature.
Instrument Separation/Soundstage is one of the best I've heard in an IEM. I feel as if I'm in a small club that is tuned to provide a clean sound. Instruments have room to breath even in the most complex parts of songs I've heard that even sound a tad confusing at time on my Audio Technica Ad2000.
I know I'm saying clean a lot, I can not stress how crystal clear the sound on these is. A lot of people praised the Fostex T50RP for their black background, well I think these may even be cleaner sounding.
The comfort isn't the best, the IEMs don't fit too comfortably in my right ear, but they IEMs stay in and form a good seal despite the semi-shallow insertion. The build quality is top notch, you can't ask for better at this price, again Audio Technica sets the bar for IEM quality.
So that's my quick review after 3 days of ownership and about 20 hours of listening. Yes, 20 hours. These IEMs have made me want to re-listen to every song I own over again, which is something next to my Meelectronics A161p and Audio Technica Ad2000. These are the headphone to beat under $100 and I'd be impressed if any company could build a driver as clean as this for their IEMs even at double the price. There's my gushing mini-review, these deserve every bit of praise they get.
As someone else mentioned the shortness of the cable is kind of annoying even though they do provide and extension, I've never been a believer of the effects of burning in headphones but perhaps with time those effects will show with these IEMs or more likely my ears will just get used to them.
