Comfortable affordable ear buds great sound
By kaylala024 on
Tired of the ipod ear buds that came with my Nano that were always hurting my ears and falling out, I went into walmart searching for ANYTHING more comfortable. I was willing to pay a pretty penny for any headphones or earbuds that wouldn't require me taking an aleeve after using them....
There wasn't much of a selection, so I was limited to choosing $15 head phones or $89 dollar head phones, and since I can be tight with a buck, I chose the $ 15 Philips HE592 Surround Sound Ear Buds (White).
These are hands down the best earbuds I have ever owned. My quality of life has improved greatly since I bought these as I am no longer stressed out by the ipod earbuds always falling out, and I can actually relax and enjoy my music. These ear buds have a soft, flexible casing around the bud that make a comfortable tight fit.
And as the name suggests, it really does sound like you are listening to sorround sound. The bass levels are great and the sound is crystal clear.
They also come with an extra set of the plastic casings, and I bet if you need more you could get them on the Phillips website for a reasonable price...
Oh and they came in a cute cushioned little carry case which is awesome and extremely portable. For those with tiny MP3 players, you might be able to use this case to carry your mp3 player in (The Zune stone fits perfectly).
Oh, and my dad was so impressed, he went out and bought a pair (getting my dad to buy anything "extra" is like pulling teeth!)
WOW! $15 ear buds to replace my ipod earpods that I just can't get comfy with...thank you so much for this info. I actually didn't know that I had any options other then getting new earphones from apple!
This is really good information. So often there is some less expensive product that works well, if only we don't have to try them all to find it! Glad you scooped it on the first try, and told us all about it. Thanks!
These do sound comfortable. I hate most ear buds.
Yes they will fit any ipod. let me know if you or anyone else has any questions, id be happy to answer
i honestly see these everywhere..thanks for the insight i'll keep it in mind
I have to check this out. I am not happy with my current earphones that came with my ipod. I don't like that I wear them for such a short time and then they start hurting. I am excited to find these!
These sound great. I'm always looking for ones that will fit. I have small ears and I have yet to find any that will fit well and not fall out constantly.
The Philips HE592 Surround Sound Ear Buds sound like a great little purchase at $15. Could you tell me how long you have had these ear buds? I ask because we have had a problem with the last 2 or 3 sets that we purchased with the wiring of the ear buds, either separating completely or just losing sound in one of the buds. We have purchased the cheaper ones, but up to about $30 or a bit over. If yours have lasted it may be the next one to buy. Thanks.
It's so great that the $15 pair made you perfectly happy!
This Product Sounds Great! And You Seem Very Pleased With Them! Thanks For Sharing!
