I would recommend these to anyone looking for a great pair of earbuds. I picked these up after accidentally muffling one of the buds from the pair that came with my phone (Alfredo sauce isn't kind to earbuds). I've had these for a couple weeks now and I use them when studying and when at work. I'd say I've listened to then for about 50 hours at this point (I'm actually using then now as I right this review), and I am thoroughly pleased with the sound quality, the comfort, and the look of these.They are highly capable of playing any type of music or video I've listened to/ watched so far. They have a very nice balance between bass and treble, which is very nice so you don't hear flat bass and overwhelming treble or vice versa.The only negative thing I can think about these earbuds is that they do not have a volume control/ mic on the wire, but that's no big deal to me because I never used either of them anyways.These come with a case to keep the headphones in, which is very nice when carrying them around so the wires and buds don't get crushed. The buds also come with multiple sets of different size and shape buds to make the fit as comfortable as possible. They are a fantastic pair of earbuds for an amazing price.*Update*I've now used these for well over 300 hours, they still sound amazing and are very comfortable, I can wear them 8-9 hours straight while working without any discomfort. I am extremely glad I bought them. These are easily my favorite earbuds I've ever used.*Update 2*I've been using these 20 months now and they still sound fantastic! Also, they have no cosmetic damage despite the constant use. I still highly recommend these to anyone in the market for some earbuds.

I bought these headphones because I had read reviews on Head-fi and ABI that raved about them. I'm not a hard-core audiophile but I do enjoy good quality sound and am a huge music lover so I'm kind of picky about headphones. When I saw so many true audiophiles across the web raving about these $35 headphones, I figured I had to give them a try.The sound is incredibly rich and crisp and these sound like a pair of headphones that could have easily have cost $80. I will say that I was a little unimpressed with these when I first tried them with the included silicone tips...they just didn't give a very good seal and the bass was lacking. Then I decided to spring for some Comply foam tips and I was blown away by the difference they made. The better seal provided by these tips allowed the e10s to really come to life and the bass sounded incredible. It's a warm, controlled bass that still allows the mids and highs to come through clearly and the overall sound signature is very pleasing to the ears and seems to suit any type of music.The build quality is pretty good on these although I wouldn't be too rough with the cord (this is true with almost any headphones though). I like the metal finish and the overall look...very clean and sophisticated. My only complaint in the looks department is that they stamped the "Made in China" right on the housing for the plug. I have no problem at all with these being made in China...I just don't think the country of origin stamp looks good right on the plug like that. Otherwise these look and sound great.In conclusion, you're definitely going to be pleasantly surprised by these and for the low asking price, you really can't go wrong. As with any IEM style headphone though, you absolutely must try to get a good seal or they won't truly be able to shine. I highly recommend getting the Comply foam tips for these...they're a little pricey for what you get, but they make a huge difference and are not such a bad deal when you consider the small price tag of the e10s.

My Bose IE2's finally wore out after 4 years so I was shopping around for something to replace them with. I researched many different models(Klipsch S4 - II, Sennheiser 300 CX 300B MK II to name a couple) trying to find what seemed to be a good pair of earphones under $100. All of them seemed to have significant issues(Klipsch durability, Sennheiser cord design etc) and I was seeing many mixed reviews. I had pretty much given up and was going to buy another pair of IE2's but didn't really want to spend $90 on them. Finally I stumbled on a couple comments about these and then came here to see all the great reviews.For $35 I have trouble believing you can beat these. They are louder then my Bose IE2's(an Issue I had with my IE2's right from the start, needed to have almost everything near high to max volume), they produce a little more bass but they also have good mid tones and treble. Overall the sound quality is quite good. They fit very snug in my ears and do isolate a little bit of sound(not a whole lot but an improvement over non isolating earphones like the IE2's). I haven't worn them for a long period of time yet, not sure if they will be as comfortable as the IE2's to wear but the sound isolation and louder volume makes up for that.Overall this review is probably sounding pretty impressive so here is why I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5.a) I didn't want a microphone but these do not even have a start/stop/skip button so you are stuck fiddling with ipod etc. This is something I am definitely going to miss from my IE2's. This is partly my fault though as I didn't research it good enough to know this.b) The build quality seems to be decent but I have a real hard time believing these will last even half as long as my IE2's. If they do and I get 2 years I will definitely be happy.c) Straight jack instead of right angle, I knew this when purchasing and am sure it will be fine but I would have preferred a right angle jack.So overall if you are looking for good sound quality at a cheap price definitely consider these. Buy the microphone pair if you want to have ipod controls though. Only time will tell if my question of durability is true or if they are stronger then they look.
