4.0 out of 5 stars Super clear sound!, 30 Jan 2007
By C. Hutton "retropop" (Dorset, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Excellent IEMs, all-round balanced sound. Highs, lows and midtones are produced with superb clarity, the bass is there but it's not over-powering. I found the bass of the Sony EX71s a bit over-the-top making them a little muddy, however none of that problem with these.

The build quality is super. I can see these lasting a long, long time. The cord is quite thick and feels very sturdy.

The earphones come nicely packaged in a blue & black cardboard box. There are four sets of ear buds (S, M, L and one set of flanged buds), a thick book of instructions, and a small leather carry case.

One thing I will mention is the ear buds. I couldn't get them to fit because even the smallest buds were too big for me. Having used the Sony EX71s and knowing the smallest of their buds fitted me, I ordered some Sony replacements and they fit perfectly on to the Ultimate Ears. It's good to know that if you ever need replacement buds you can get hold of some, because I haven't yet found any spare buds supplied by Ultimate Ears themselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent buds, 20 Dec 2007
By Mr. D. Papadopoulos - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
These replaced my Sony EX71s so I'll more or less directly compare them.

Pros:

*Build quality. Just top notch. Nothing feels cheap, I only have them for a day now and I'm sure they'll look exactly the same in years from now. I'm really impressed. Some say cable is thick and heavy. Its definitely thick, I'd say almost two times thicker than the EX71s'. Heavy ? I wouldn't say so, feels fine. Also don't expect the cable to tangle around, ever.
*Cable length is exactly right. I was really tired of EX71s'. No behind the neck silliness (some people like it, I hated it), these offer a traditional Y setup. To give you an idea, length is practically the same as the iPod crappy earbuds have.
*Sound quality. Superb. Just what you'd expect from Ultimate Ears. Obviously these 'phones like bassy environments, I mostly listen to electronic genres, everything from Ambient and Chill to Psytrance and Industrial and I'm already in love with these. Unlike with Sonys bass is really clean, never muddy, never covering other frequencies. And I'm sure as they'll "burn in" they'll do even better.
*Comfort/Fitting. Unless you have strange ears you'll be pleased. For me what worked best was using the out-of-the-box medium buds. Just perfect, they just seal perfectly. I haven't used them for hours and hours yet so don't really know if they'll be tiring after many hours of continuous usage.
*Sound isolation. Very good, far far better than Sonys'. But I guess thats depending on how good they fit in your ear.

Cons.

*Jack. I tried hard thinking of something negative to say. So there you go, the only thing I didn't like was the 3.5mm jack. Yes, it has "Quality" written all over it, it's just a bit big compared to your standard average jack. To give you a rough idea, its thicker than my ipod nano.

All in all so far I'm extremely impressed and pleased. I was expecting these to smoke my Sonys out of the water, thats why I bought em, and thus far they didn't disappoint me.

Last but not least, if you care about packaging (I personally don't) its just excellent. Box is very solid, feels professional and you even get a colored glossy user guide/manual and not yet another tiny cheap piece of paper.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great sound...BUT....., 2 Dec 2008
By Stephen Griffiths (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Bought these ear phones last week. The sound produced is very crisp and clear. No complaints on that score. The phones sound good if you keep still, so they are probably fine if you are travelling or sitting, but I like to use my player when I am working outside on my allotment and in common with some other reviewers I have to say that the ear buds supplied are really not very good. I have had problems with the phones falling out at the slightest movement. I am inserting the phones correctly, but there seems to be no size of ear bud that fits my lugholes. I substituted the ear buds supplied with my Sony NWZ-A829 which fit well. As reported elsewhere there is a lot of noise transmitted through the cable so as I move about I keep getting a rustling/rubbing noise. Irritating. Also, again in common with another review, I have added a right angle adapter to the plug. I have already wrecked the cable on the phones that came with my Sony NWZ-A829, which is also straight and I don't want to do the same with these.
So, good sound for static listening but not the greatest for music on the move. Would I recommend them to others? It depends. Yes, if you want them to listen while travelling or sitting, but no if you are going to be active.
