Customer Review: 2yr+ Review.
Summary: 4 Stars
I haven't read all of the reviews for this because it would be a little bit insane.
I have had these headphones for about 2+ years now, the truth is that I don't even remember when I bought them, I know it was for one of my bdays, so for sure it has been at least TWO YEARS but it could be more.
First off, let me say that I am not an "abuser" of headphones, but if your definition of abuse is stomp and treat your headphones badly then I hope you find some headphones out there for you (there has to be some...at least they should make them). I also moderately exercise but should say that I wear my headphones EVERYWHERE, I am one of those types of people who NEED music constantly to drown out either STREE NOISE or people-noise, I rode the bus for a year (two connecting buses back and forth from my house to go to college in downtown Denver) and I walked to and from classes that were on opposite ends of campus. With that out of the way let me describe what I HAVE done to these:
- Put them in my pocket (almost all of the time) as well as my messenger bag (I'm female but I am not a girly girl). They DO coil, but I will include a costumer picture on how I kept them from uncoiling too bad (this doesn't let me link to pictures).
- I have ran/walked with them, outside, inside on the treadmill, and in different weather, snow/cold, and summer heat (CO). I say this because they are very sweat resistant compared to all the other headphones/earphones/earbuds I have tried.
- After two years, you would think these things would fail, but the sound is STILL unparallel to any other headphones I have tried, including these : Sennheiser OMX50 Street Line Flexible Stereo Clip-On Earphones; on that note these made my ears have zits/bumps that hurt, but maybe it's just my ears.
To be more precise:
- The protection where the cable ends and the plug-in connector begins does unstick, but that only happened to me 1.5 yrs after I bought them, I simply force it together and it sticks back up (I think either superglue or tacky glue should work on them however).
- I lost one of the small cushions on my right earphone, for the life of me I cannot find the extra ones, and even then the things still WORK, and the sound is good.
- I haven't experienced ANY tears on the wire-covering, none, whatsoever, and maybe it's just how I TAKE CARE of them, but it's not EXTREME in any way, at all (I don't treat them like I treat my mp3 player).
- I have to say that it took me about three days to get used to the way these earphones fit. They did hurt for a bit because my ear wasn't used to having something inside, but after that period it was like I didn't have anything on.
NOTE: IF your ears are weirdly shaped or you just can't get used to the earphones in a week I would say just find another pair, it's not worth it to suffer pain for $20 + shipping, when I bought these they were above $35 so I had a bigger incentive.
What I would recommend for people (other than the picture I will upload) is that they CLEAN THEIR EARPHONES, it's easy to open up the cushion pads around the earphone, just do that and have a q-tip with RUBBING ALCOHOL (Sometimes they label it Isopropyl Alcohol) and just clean all the gunk out of there. It helps and it's sanitary :).
* Another note is that I use these earphones still (I WIll buy another pair soonish), I started using them when I had a CD/MP3 player (yes one of those old big round ones no one uses anymore), then I bought a cheap $25 mp3 player at MicroCenter, that died, and now I have a Mini Sansa player (pictured in the customer pic), that SEEMS to be dying, but the earphones are still going.
I have tried many many earphones, among them cheap $10 earbud ones from sony, from panasonic, as well as over-the-ear ones. I looked many years before I decided to try these ones.
They are not a perfect fit for everyone, like I said if they hurt for too long change to others. However, if you are looking for a good pair that does not move while you exercise/move places and has good quality sound I would highly recommend these.
Description of Sennheiser MX 75 Twist-To-Fit Stereo Sport Earbuds
Stereo headphone with Twist-to-fit systemThe Sennheiser MX75 Sport Line Stereo Headphones with Twist-to-Fit System combines a flashy neon green profile with a convenient twist-to-fit design that ensures stability while you're out jogging. The two earpieces contain rubber stoppers that press against the outer ear to further enhance stability, and a cable clip is included to hold the headphones to your clothes when they're not in use. Then, you can put them in the included vinyl carrying case for storage. The headphones themselves deliver low-end bass and drum clarity together with crispness in mid-range frequencies, and the overall sound quality is comparable with Sennheiser's studio headphones.
