Ive searched all of Bens' posting of these earphones. And no one gives them a longer review. Can someone post something worthwhile?
I am very picky about how in-ear earphones fit. I know quality ones like Shure come with multiple fittings: foam, single flange rubber, and multi-flange rubber (double or triple). I find foam fits best, with only certain sized single-flange also working.
There is an INCONSISTENCY on the website! The image on Buy.com shows a single flange rubber piece, but the description mentions "shaping the foam", which isnt possible with flange pieces. And the corporate website shows a triple-flange only. Does this come with foam too? That is the ONLY way I will buy it.
Thanks for the help!

#1 if this is the same as the ones I've got a while ago, they have the tripple flap thing, and two single round thing to fit your ear. this is not the great or best earphones like those expensive 100 dollar ones so icemat wont do noise-cancel like magic, but it does work, and for this price, it's awesome!
it doesn't have foam. it comes w/ a mic if you like/want that. I have a chance to try the in-ear so I dont care about the mic. hope this helps.

This is a very good head phone for the price. I have it and I liked it. It has a extra long extension cord for the extra length which comes in handy. The mic is nice too for skype and such. It works nicely. It's one of the few that has a pretty good bass. Bass may be slightly too strong. It's made for gaming and it works for that well. The only thing but important thing is the mid range. It's a little weak. You will notice this if you compare to a shure headphone. Good for the price.
