These Suck.
Philips HE591 Surround Sound Earbuds
I bought them yesterday and I can’t get the damn things to stay in my ear. Maybe my ear canal is just too large after so many years of leaving bananas in my ears. Or maybe the concept of ear buds that only fit in the ear due to polyethylene corks is impractical… I think I’m going to go back to Best Buy, complain to them about the inferiority of their selection, and then accept that they won’t exchange a used product that I blatantly haven’t cleaned off.
Also, and this is important, the sound sucks. The Highs are muted and the bass is lackluster at best, considering the buds sit directly in the ear canal. (Or at least they should; did I mention that I can’t get these to fully sit in my ears?) Anyway, I hate them. They’re fucking assholes and I hope they get raped by a shit-crusted hobo at the bottom of a box of used porno and condoms in our garage.
Also, the case is useless. I liked it in the packaging, and it might work for somebody not me, but it's too cumbersome to handle effectively and it takes too long to put away the earbuds. Frequently, I need to pop the buds from my ears and stuff them into a pocket in fairly short measure. This case does not allow for that. So far it has only aided me in cramming the earbud and accompanying cords in a tangled-jumble into my pocket.
I’m thinking of these, simply because I like the idea of being completely isolated from my co-workers. Also, it’s only $10 more than the set above, and those suck ass.
Philips SHN2500/37 Noise Canceling Earbud
At the same time, I miss my old Sony wrap-around earbuds which gave up the ghost recently due to manglage on my part. They looked terrible, but the NEVER EVER fell off my ears. They were perfect in that regard. Also, the sound was spectacular for a simple $9.99 set of earphones that came out in the early years of the Ipod.Current Mood:  restless Current Music: The Gymnast, High above the Ground - The Decemberists |
