Had High Hopes, 2010-07-28
I bought the J2 Earbuds to replace some Sony earbuds to use in conjuction with a Sansa Clip, primarily at the gym. I am an avid gym goer, in the ballpark of 4 to 5 times a week for the past several years. I mention this because the gym is the location of my primary use for headphones. That said, on with the review.
The Good:
- The headphones appear to be well constructed, perhaps even durable.
- The cord is about 3 ft., a perfect length if you are going to be twisting, turning, and generally move around a lot.
- Price.
The Bad:
- A side effect of the durable construction is that these headphones are heavy. If you move around a lot, especially in a gym or running environment, these will not stay in your ears.
- They are big, these are some of the largest earbuds I have seen, both in circumference and length. They stick a good distance out of your ear and are not comfortable in any way.
- Straight plug. I should have remembered this from reading reviews before I bought them but somehow glossed over it. An angled plug is a requirement for me. This is just a matter of preference. For me though its a deal breaker.
- Sound. I read many reviews about the sound quality and had hopes that these were going to have fantastic sound quality, especially when it came to bass. Maybe I set my hopes too high for a $15 pair of earbuds, but the sound was adequate but not stellar and in order to get the headphones to produce good bass I had to customize the equalizer settings in the Sansa Clip.
I really wanted to like these headphones and am surprised that they let me down after reading so many reviews. In the end though the old addage rings true, you pay $15 for a set of headphones, and that's what you get.
DISAPOINTING, 2010-07-30
THIS EARPHONES ARE AT A VERY LOW VOLUME AND ARE NOT WORTH 20 DOLLARS...THE BASE SOUNDS GREAT BUT THE VOLUME IS A HEART BRAKER
Two failed on me. I'm very surprised., 2010-07-28
I'm very surprised by the number of high ratings for this headphone. The whole reason why I bought these were due to the high ratings. Unfortunately, I went through two of these in less than 4 months. In both cases, one of the ear piece stops playing music. I returned on to amazon since it happened within a week of purchase. I would guess the failure occurs due to the way I store the headphones. I wrap it around my mp3 player. Not sure of any better way to keep your headphones from tangling, but I suppose this method places a lot of stress on the soldered connection.
My last complain is that these ear buds are not securely in my ear. They tend to slip off sometimes and I'd have to jam them in my ear to get them to stay decently well. It's quite annoying. I would avoid these pair of headphones and look else where. *Sigh* Another $15 dollars down the drain. I wonder if there are any headphone companies that have a 1 year + warranty.
Mediocre quality, 2010-07-29
After reading all the reviews before purchasing it, I was convinced that this would be a decent product. I'm the only one that uses the earphones for my iPod. I only use them for jogging, working out at the gym, or mowing the lawn. I ordered these in February, and within 6 months they no longer work. The jack that slides into the iPod is of poor quality, as far as I'm concerned. I know it's the JBud instead of the iPod because my original earphones still work. I have to manipulate the jack to get the sound to actually work, and even then it's not working that well. I don't hear the bass or lyrics or vice versa, and the music cuts in and out. I am returning the product.
great earbuds for the price, 2010-07-30
After i purchased the Jbuds and the left channel went out on them i contacted customer service on their website. It was the most pleasant return experience I've ever had. I received my replacements in 3 working days and didn't have to pay a penny for shipping. They've worked flawlessly. So I purchased the J2's and I am impressed for the price. They sounded awful when I first plugged them in, but after a 30 or so hour burn in they are spectacular. Of course you can buy better for more money but these are my favorite in this price range($15-$30). I have the V-moda's, a pair of skull candy rasta's, and a few others. I like the J2's sound and fit the best. The heavy wire is nice also. It just seems strong. And I like how the stress points are reinforced. The plug is solid and is easy to grab. They never fall out of my ears, even when sweating. I'm a roofer so they've taken some abuse. But my main praise is of the customer service and that has become the most important thing to me. No product is ever perfect but a company who stands behind theirs will continue to recieve my business.
