Skullcandy S2INCZ-033 3.5mm Connector Canal Ink'd Earphone Black/Black (2011 Model)

Pros: Great sound

Cons: Lasted 3 months

Pros: I've had this for five months. It's very durable. The wires seem very thin but they are very strong. This went through the washer twice and it works perfectly fine. I'm getting another one since they finally broke.

Cons: Wires are too thin and tangles.

Other Thoughts: Lasts you about 6 months

Pros: Nice sound quality, easy fit earbuds. They fit nicely in my ears when so many others haven't.

Cons: The cord has a really good memory from when it was originally packaged, making it really hard for them to lay straight. They bunch up and that can be annoying

Pros: Unsure - bought it as a present.

Cons: Unsure - bought it as a present.

Pros: - price: good headphones for 12.99
- good bass
- great sound WITH an equalizer

Cons: High range sound was pretty bad and metallic sounding.

My computers realtek audio drivers have an equalizer with the frequencies (100, 200, 400, 600, 1k, 3k, 6k, 12k, 14k, 16k). To get the best sound out of these i slightly lowered 100, slightly raised 2 4 and 600, slightly lowered 1k and 3k, greatly lowered 6k, left 12k around the default, and gave a moderate boost to 14k and 16k. Dropping 6k cancelled out the metallic sound but left the treble overall too quiet, necessitating a boost to the frequencies above it. The rest was very minor, mostly vocal-centric, tweaking.


I tested this equalizer setting on a variety of rock, hip-hop, pop, folk, classical, jazz, and opera, and found it made a huge improvement universally. There wasn't a single exception. The only commonalities were that all the music were high bitrate mp3s, my laptop, my ears, and the headphones. One of them had to be causing bad initial levels, and its almost certainly the headphones.

Other Thoughts: They can't seem to generate the bass properly unless they're fit snug in your ears, like 100% airtight. I'm not sure if that's really a con or a universal condition for this kind of headphones.

Pros: Sound great
Inexpensive
Fast Shipping (as always)

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: I tried these out for about a week loved them, then a friend of mine tried them out and she wanted them so I gave them to her... will be ordering more if they get more in stock.

Pros: Sound Quality
Price
Comfort

Cons: None, except I believe Skullcandy is out to mess with me...see other thoughts.

Other Thoughts: Do these things actually come with 3 silicon tips or what? This is the second pair (the other being a blue pair) I have purchased that only came with 2 sets of the tips (small and large).
What gives?

Pros: Cheap. Black color is in at the moment.

Sound is decent, does a nice job of producing both highs and lows.

Cons: Lets see. Was a little disappointed when I received these ear buds to find that they had no label for left and right. With music, I could see why you wouldn't care. But with some movies and tv shows, the designation matters.

The cable itself is plastic. The internal may be braided nylon, but that is kinda useless if you are hoping for a more durable cable like I was...

Mine also died after four months.

Other Thoughts: I dunno. $10 isn't a lot of money. But should earbuds really be that pricey? Labeling the buds w/ L and R seems simple enough. I also don't like that the cable wasn't the braided nylon that I was hoping for.

If you plan to travel with these, you should probably look for another pair. If you are going to leave them at a desk or chair somewhere..then they will probably do the trick.

Pros: Sound quality is amazing on these little things. Really a wonderful product.

Cons: None - Hope they last

Pros: Everything. Great sound, great fit, look and feel. Quality, price.

Cons: Nothing.

Other Thoughts: I've gone elsewhere for headphones and even paid (way) more and I was disappoint. I have learned my lesson. Skullcandy or nothing! I'm going to buy a second or third pair just as a backup. Buying from Newegg and Skullcandy is a worry free purchase.
