I have been using the cheap end of the earphone market for years, mainly because I'm tight, or careful, depending on your point of view. After my last pair of Sony's bit the dust I thought I'd take a chance and spend a few bob (quite a lot of extra b...Read moreobs actually) more on these. I used the rational that these must be considerably better quality than the stuff at the bottom end of the market or they wouldn't sell. And being a mail order purchase I could always return same.
I am by nature, a very sceptical person, so I wasn't expecting a huge improvement in aural pleasure but boy, was I wrong. Everything about these little fellers is right, the design, the packaging, the choice of buds (so many) and above all, the quality. I was not expecting the massive improvement. I'm no spring chicken and have a music collection that I started in the sixties and is very catholic (note the small c) in taste, ranging from Tallis through to Travis with a lot of stuff in between. I have heard inflections, detail, breathing and parts I have never heard before. I was amazed. My only regret is waiting so long and missing so much.
