Where's the bass?

By Old Guy

from Roselle, IL on 6/23/2008

Pros:

Clear undistorted sound

Cons:

Weak bass

Describe Yourself:

Primary use:

Personal

Bottom Line:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I wanted to replace the phones that came with my sansa e260 with ones that had good sound (i.e. full sound) and were isolating, with out breaking the bank. From what I read, it seemed Skullcandy Smokin Buds were just the ticket. Boy, was I wrong. While my first impression was how clear and undistorted their sound was, it didn’t take long for it to become obvious that they were not producing much, if any, real bass. So, back to the store they went and back to listening to music through my ancient (over the ears) Sony MDR-V7 phones until I can find a suitable replacement.

For [$] I dare you to find a better sounding pair of earbuds! These sound awesome and the inline volume control is so important when you need adjust it! No, more digging around for my zen v plus mp3 player to adjust the volume. [...] These are perfect, they sound amazing and you just cant beat the price!

GREAT PRODUCT FOR CHEAP PRICE

By EAT DONUTS from NY, NY on 7/30/2007

Pros:

Cheap, Lightweight, Rich Sound

Cons:

EAR BUDS.

Best Uses:

Music, Portable Devices, Running, Travel, With My Computer

Describe Yourself:

Audiophile, Frequent Traveler

Primary use:

Personal

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great product, great design and catered to those who do not want too spend much but still want good quality. i bought two of these for myself they are that good, reason being I wanted to have a back up, just in case and not have to worry about ever finding it again.
THE only con is that earbuds can get very uncomfortable after a while, and those stupid earbuds fall off quickly, but that is on any type of earbud.
GET this cause its the cheapest, best earbuds ive ever had

Very Very Good at a GREAT PRICE

By Globalgold

Comfortable, Highly Compatible, Lightweight, Rich Sound

Describe Yourself:

Primary use:

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I was looking for an earbud that was sound canceling, light weight, good sound (and Bass), inexpensive. Read some reviews online and these seemed to fit the bill so I picked them up. At any price these are real good buds, at this price these are great buds. My wife took one listen to them and I had to go back to staples and get her a pair – she wanted Pink – mine are black.
