Great sound - while it lasts.October 26, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Folks, take the advice of one of the elder statesman in this group; only buy these ear buds if you have a high threshold for aggravation.
The sound VModa achieves is outstanding, albeit a bit heavy on the bass, but, overall, the listening experience is WONDERFUL - *while it lasts*.
I had these ear buds for less than 30 days before the left channel went dead on a long overseas flight; nothing to do but break out the book at that point.
I'm looking for something else, right now. There are too many reported instances for this to be a chance occurrence.
Great sounds, terrible durabilityOctober 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
These earbuds took a little getting used to, as the fit doesn't always hold. I used the smallest of the gel earpieces and they still popped out a lot. The sound, however, is amazing! I use them primarily at work to listen to books and drown out my coworkers. They made me feel like I was sitting down with the reader. They don't last, however, less than 5 months and they are already broken beyond repair. No good!! The sounds is awesome, but they aren't worth it unless you have $100 to throw away every couple months.
DO NOT BUY!October 15, 2008 These are extremely overpriced earbus. I have had 2 sets, on replaced under warranty and they both broke. I am really carefull abou them the sound is just so-so. Better bass that most but Female Vocals and piano sounds are just terrible- they can just a lot of boom boom and completely-un-HiFi tunes. They both broke at the jack, and there is a lot of cable rustling - there are others that are a lot better. I have had Bose Tri-ports, for Jazz Classical and Vocals -excellent. These are just Volume brain blasters. If you want your brain fried, these are it. But it won't hold up for long.
It's been 2 years and I'm still in love!!October 14, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have to admit, the price scared me in the very beginning but I have owned the SAME PAIR of v moda vibe earbuds for more than two years. I use them when I'm just sitting around, I use them while I run, I use them everywhere and I have not had one issue. The sound is excellent and the quality even better. I would not buy anything else. My husband has the $100 bose earbuds and wishes he had mine. I bought them specifically for when I run and, mile for mile, they have not let me down. I've even worn them on a 14 hour plane ride. If you want to get your money's worth, these earbuds are definitely the way to go.
Very solid for the priceOctober 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought these to replace a set of UltimateEars that I murdered with a pair of garden shears while working in the yard. Some observations: The earpieces themselves are quite light, lighter than what I expected. The cord (as mentioned) has a braided insulation. It is less tangle prone than many others that I've used. These come with 6 sets (small, medium, large in black and clear silicon. Most wearers should be able to find a combination that is comfortable. The fit is comfortable. It doesn't, however, give a very tight seal like the Etymotic ER-6i, so there is a trade off between sound isolation and comfort here. One small annoyance: the L and R markings are quite small and hard to read. The sound is solid. They have more bass than others in the price range, and the highs aren't overly bright. Do not expect greatness in this price range, however these are very competitive with others in this price range. The styling is better than most of the others, and (if you are of a mind) the differing colors can be made to match a player.
