You won't experience any ear fatigue or discomfort

Different voices are nicely separated, and you can pump enough volume through them to drown out any environment without distorting (not noise canceling, just ruin-your-ears loud).

I'm a big Grado fan, and I'm sure I'd like the higher end over-ear Sennheiser / Bayer Dynamic products.*SINGLE CHANNEL

Different voices are nicely separated, and you can pump enough volume through them to drown out any environment without distorting (not noise canceling, just ruin-your-ears loud).

The only drawback is the cheap, thin ear pad covering

All had problems including poor sound, uncomfortable fit, poor ear retention (especially Apple's), etc

With any headphone of this type your ears will warm up sooner or later but not really uncomfortable at all

That tells you two things 1) these are so good as far as portable headphones go (earbuds skeeve me out --my ears are too sensitive) that I still buy them over and over2

They are light weight, very comfortable, secure on the head and fit on, not over, the ears

Also I feel like I could wear these all the time and would nto hurt my ears

The in-ear buds hurt my small ears after a little while of use, and these headphones eliminate that issue.

They are lightweight, not too bulky, and my ears were not sore at all

My ears ache after short use and the foam is itchy.

They short out almost on cue after about a year (when only one ear works the other dies out and if you jiggle the jack the dead ear sputters back a bit but not much) - I thought with the new cord maybe they fixed the problem, maybe it's built-in obsolescence

Not only can I hear the person calling perfectly, they can hear me just as well as if I'm speaking directly into the phone
