HAF160B Gumy Ear Bud Headphone Black

I've bought these headphones almost a dozen times over the past decade, and I'll probably keep buying them until they're no longer being made. Every other set of cheap wired headphones I get have all the same problems: A) Tinny low-volume, B) flimsy construction, and the biggest offender, C) earbud designs that are made to be stuffed deep into your ear canal or they fall right off. Can't stand any of it, so I stick with these for the good bass, decent construction, and more importantly, comfortable for people who don't like things buried in their ear holes.

I bought these back in 2017 and was just coming back hoping they had upgraded them or added an option for usbc. These are my absolute favorite headphones I've ever had, and I bought a few pairs in 2017 because I lost the ones id been using that were purchased in a store somewhere. These are my go-to headphones for everything. They are durable, work very well for music and listening, and they sit in my ear dip very nicely. In ear headphones give me headaches from the pressure, even when I use the different sizes. These sit nicely in the dip outside the ear canal with the little projection focusing sound into the ear. They are perfect for me, and my only ask is a usbc at the end of the cables. Please and thank you <3

Don't look like photo shown but work and sound good on audio books. Find mid-bass muddy sounding on music.

I am using earphones as my monitor speakers when I perform live. Essentially they are "poor man in-ear monitors." I have several different versions of Sony earphones - the best of which are out of production. Additionally, when I bought these new headphones, I also bought 2 different Sony earphones and another JVC Gumy one which is white color. I'm always looking for a better sound. Well I found one: These JVC earphone used to say "Bass boost" or something like that but for some reason now I can't find the place that claimed "bass boost". If you look at the picture of these, there's a small additional hole on the earphone that none of my other ones have. Presumably this is for bass. OK, then, the verdict is out: these JVC earphones are the best sound quality of all the earphones I have! The overall "spectral distribution of the mix" coming through these headphones is, admittedly, not quite right - but the sound is still better than any of my other options, i.e. other earphones. Please keep these in stock and don't replace them with some cheaper quality earphone. Thank you.

Honest reaction lol They get LOUD and I wasnt even prepared lol Definitely will come in handy when Im trying to drown out my kids gaming time! Now I can really enjoy my audiobooks! I also remember wanting these growing up and I finally got me a pair! Im older now and decided against the ear inserts because the ear inserts make my ears itchy and I dont like that. These fit snug and perfectly fine! I love the nostalgia of using wired headphones! I love that these wont need to be charged! Id say these are a great value!

There's good and bad- The vocals and instruments will come through sounding clear and great, however there often seems to be a latent white noise / hum of soft static in the background. And its very noticeable when listening to slower, softer, acoustic style songs or when there is a lull in the music/vocals. And if a silent moment persists longer than a few seconds, the white noise cuts out finally, only to kick back in when the music cuts back in, which makes that whife noise even more noticeableto me. And it often makes you think your headphones stopped working or your music stopped. That, and the white noise, both are super annoying. And I've tried the same song on different headphones to make sure its not in my head, its definitely the headphones. If youre in a noisy setting like airplane, public place im hoping you may not notice this as much. I have smaller ears so i do appreciate the smaller ear bud size as they are hard to find, and the old school flat on-ear style much like the old school original iPod buds I loved. I cannot do the in-ear stuff that is everywhere now. I will note the shape of these are not a perfect circle and has a bump out in a section that I would assume is meant to fit an ear better, but for me it just makes it a bit painful after a while. No matter the angle I try to change it to. I hope this will ease in time as I get used to them since my ears are used to the round kind. I will keep as back up since i got them on sale and these old school styles are hard to find.

I WISH I KNEW ABOUT THESE SOONER. If I remember, the packaging was difficult to break open, but now I use these suckers ALL THE TIME. My kitten has tried to bite through these, and they still work as normal! I've had these for months, and I will choose this brand anytime over Apple earphones. My favorite part: You don't shove them deep into your ear! I hated how my earwax would get stuck inside my other earphones, and it made me anxious over whether I was letting myself get an ear infection. It also hurt my ears trying to shove the silicone-part of the bud into my ears before. Like the Apple earphones, these don't do that! I don't know if you still need to clean these, but I'm still infinitely happier with these. Sound quality: I bought some cheap $20 Bluetooth earphones (Airpods ripoff), and the sound quality of these earphones are way better than the Bluetooth ones. They're also probably better quality than the Apple earphones too, because I remember at some point one of the sides of the buds gave up on me. Some Apple earphones have glitched out on sound quality also. This hasn't happened for these earphones. The wire length is about an arm's length (a bit longer), so they're convenient for travel and a lack of tangling. They're not noise-proof, but I personally like that because family members barge into my room all the time asking me questions and I'd rather not have to ask them to repeat themselves.

These earbuds have been the loves of my life for 15 years. For background, I’m a deaf/hard of hearing person with some residual hearing. My hearing aids don’t have Bluetooth, so I need earbuds in order to listen to music and actually pick up all the nuances of it. On top of my deafness, I’m also the kind of person who wants my music to basically melt my face off anyways. Combine the two and I require some seriously loud earbuds. Most earbuds are basically useless to me, including a lot of the expensive name brand ones. I’ve tried tons over the years and I always come back to these cheap SOBs. They get LOUD, especially paired with some Spotify equalizer finagling. To be clear, I doubt the sound quality would wow any audiophiles. They have exactly zero bells or whistles. At the volumes I subject them to, they wear out every 8-12 months. I don’t care about any of that. They give me the gift of fully enjoying music and I will continue to repurchase them until they’re taken off the market, I go completely deaf, or I die — whichever comes first.

Good quality sound. Glad I made the purchase

D. rechte Kopfhörer funktioniert mit super Klang, leider ist stereo Wirkung hin, da d. linke Hörer nicht funktioniert. Rücksendung problematisch auch wegen Zulieferant wie auch durch Amazon. Wird einfach erschwert.

Excelente sonido. Seria mas útil que tuviera el plug en escuadra para evitar daño o torsión del cable, y por ende, mal funcionamiento.

Love there hadphoned going to by they’d agin

Good
