I bought these in a hurry at Schiphol airport having just broken my sennheiser PX10. After spending what has seemed like weeks I finally managed to get them to fit properly and the sound is a big improvement over the PX10 - a little quieter but far richer more balanced sound. The biggest problem is that when fitted correctly the coil sits level with the mid point of my neck, so any movement which touches the loop can potentially displace them. What is odd is that they can sit in the correct position for long periods however you are always seconds away from having to readjust them. So, if you use headphones for the following activities then you might want to think carefully if these are the right ones for you...
* At the gym - fine if you don't minding spending an extra half hour readjusting them (not easy at all on the treadmill, rowing machine forget it)
* On a flight (I travel frequently with my job), OK if you want to sit bolt upright in your seat. Not so good when dozing off to the gentle sounds of AD/DC
* You are in bed (again away from home in a lonely hotel room) and wanting to drift off to sleep but the pillow keeps displacing your sound
* walking your dog - head movements when looking left, right, or up.
* wearing any garment with an upright collar eg a fleece when walking your dog
* wearing any form of hat / headwear (baseball cap, hood), if you are out walking your dog and it is raining
* Simple bending down to tie a shoe lace
I paid 60 euro for these and have noted since that all airport retailers charge between £50 - 60, much higher than the price on Amazon. For £20 they are good value, but not worth £60.
In summary the sound is good however they are so easily displaced that enjoyment can swiftly change to frustration.
