    How are they for working out in the gym? It is a pain in the butt when they fall out on the treadmill.

    they are completely crap.. i paid $15 at Target and i got super bad sound quality out of this headphones, your better off with JVC Gumy or Marshmallow around that price range.

    #4, Probably bad QC.
    #3, The wires are thin and rubber coated. They would get noisy while jogging. You can read the reviews Amazon.

    They SUCK as is....BUT take a pair of these and use the spare pair of JVC marshmallow pads on them. You'll have a pair of earbuds that you can't TOUCH for under 100 bucks! Great highs, clear mids and fabulous TIGHT, low bass!

    Try it and see if you don't agree...they are MUCH better then the marshmallows (which aren't bad).

    these are decent and for the price they are way better than my iphone earbuds. I don't know anyone's ears those fit in. These hold tight when i am running or even walking. For $10 they are definitely worth it.

    I got them. I like them quite a bit and great for the $. However, I find that the ear bud gel falls off the main part quite often but usually I find it. It comes with replacements in various sizes.

    for the same money I would rather get a pair of sennheisers, or a few bucks more for a sony. skullcandys are not that great of earbuds in the $10~15 range.

    #3 I didn't have a problem with the wires causing any problem. But the buds don't seem to like to stay in. For the gym you would want something that loops over the ear to hold it in place. But the sound quality is really good with these (and I only have the 9mm ones)

    Could anyone compare this pair of earphones with Sennheiser CX300 or PX100 in terms of sound quality?

    #11, what Sennheiser earphones could you get for $10 to $15?

    I have the Sennheiser CXL-400s, Creative EP-630s and Razer something-or-others. I put these as better than the Creatives and perhaps on par with the Sennheisers and Razers (which appear identical). I think the Skullz have an artificially enhanced bass sound, which is fine for general listening to Rock, Pop, R&B, etc.. If you're listening to Jazz, Classical or some other hi-fi, non-bass heavy stuff, the Skullz don't reproduce as authentically.

    My biggest beef with the Skullz is that they have no way to tell right from left. I used magic marker. Some use nail polish.

    these things always hurt, and the sound quality is subpar....

    great price on some good earbuds, definitely better than the ones that come with your ipod/iphone.

    have you actually tried putting the marshmallow pads on the skull buds? Do they stay or keep falling off like the original skull pads?
