Updated Review!! OK, this review replaces my earlier review. First off, as stated in my previous review, the headphones are very comfortable and isolate sound well. I get a very good quality sound with good bass response. Overall, I think these are a great value. In my original review, I discussed a short near the 1/4" jack that had occurred after about one month of use. The sound to one side was cutting out periodically. As I stated in my previous review, the cable is pretty thin and not very robust and needs to be treated carefully. Another small gripe is that the rubber ear pieces come off easily. I've almost lost one 4 or 5 times. The headphones come with some other ear pieces in different sizes. However, they ARE different sizes. So, if you lose the one that fits best, you may not get a great fit with the other pieces. Now for the update (and the good part). I was ready just to move on with my life without calling them about my issue. However, after I posted my review, a representative from SOUNDXTC contacted ME via e-mail after reading my review and offered to replace the headphones for free (even though the 30-day guarantee period had already passed). Sure enough, I received my replacement headphones within a few days and they are working perfectly. Customer service like that is rare and very much appreciated. I have no doubt that this company will handle any issues that may come up with these headphones. So...for the price, these earphones are worth 5 stars. For the service I give it a 6th Star... if that's possible. excellent product I thought it was a gamble buying these earphones, since it is a new brand, and there weren't many reviews... I'm glad I took the chance. These earphones are simply great. First, they block out most ambient sound, leaving you alone to enjoy you music (this is especially useful when you have to deal with noisy buses every day). Not only that, the sound is excellent. It's clean, crisp, balanced... I'm no audiophile, but I do appreciate good sound, and when you can clearly distinguish all the instruments in a song I'd say you have some prettty decent sounding earphones. The earphones look and feel well finished, solid and durable. The cable feels pretty durable too, it's long enough and strangely tangles up very little. Overall this is an excellent product, and I'm sure I'll keep them for quite a while. The only thing in my mind is which Sound-squared earphones I'm buying next :D Sound XTC earphones - earbuds I looked at a lot of earbuds for me Zune 30gb mp3 player, I had ordered a pair by another company and then noticed these and thought I would try them for 2 reasond, I liked the fact they are made of something other then plastic and they looked really clean and thoughfuly built. They came today, great service from a new company to Amazon, took only a couple of days, shipping was more then fair, and after using them for several hours with the medium size soft rubber ends found them to be of excellent sound quality and the fit is great! I listen to all kinds of music from county to crooners etc, so I put them to the test. The base is outstanding and the fact I could hardly hear the phone ring a few feet from me says they will be good at noise canceling. Many choices of styles at a great price, will keep me coming back. Jimmy
