these are pretty good, i was put off by them hearing about all the high bass, not a bass person but i think those bassheads were turning the bass all the way up on the EQ anwyay and going deaf. retards. i did have to turn the vol level on my mp3 player wayyy down to get it to reasonable level so i assume these are really really loud if need be. more comfortable than my full enclosure headphones and sound about as good

What a sorry company & website (ebuyer). It still kept wanting to charge me tax, so I used their crappy 'eNote' contact system (they have no email) where you have to keep checking back to see if they answered. Their answer said they have to charge tax for AZ, TX, and TN. This just says AZ.
Not to mention I keep getting popup warnings on every page about secure/insecure data.

No... The point of speakers is to reproduce sound the way it was intended to be heard. Bass and treble are just terms used to describe the high and low ends of sound. But, most importantly, there is the middle range which has most of the music, especially vocals. If your speakers don't recreate a FLAT sound curve, the whole sound range is distorted. There is absolutely NO way to get around this, because adjustments on an equalizer and adjusting bass and treble only further distort the sound.

But, game sound quality isn't very good anyways. And rap music is just horrible quality period. So for either of those you probally won't notice much of a difference.

Don't worry, I'm not. No offense to you was intended.

To make things worse, they've now cancelled my account after, in reply to their eNote that they charge tax for AZ,TX,TN, I sent them an eNote back only telling them to see their own stated policy on the website and quoting said policy!? What kind of people are running this place? I see their RR's are not very good.

i got mine today... tested it out on some mp3 and movies......
i have to say the bass is great... probably the heaviest i have heard among all my earphones..... the verbal is clear as well.... but it lacks in mid range... as everything else except voice and bass seems to lack in clarity and amplitude.....

nonetheless it's a good buy for $20..... this earphone is probably best to be use on airplanes (provided u don't own a noise-cancelling one).... since its bass can reach your ear rather than the overwhelming turbine sound....

thanks op.... nice deal it is..

for that guy above who said "the point of speaker is bass..".... you definately haven't enjoy your music yet.....

I need a decent set of earbuds to use with my Motorola i870 (it has an mp3 player built in with microsd media cards). I only use it as the gym.

Do you suggest these?

** edit ** WTF they have an external battery pack? Do all earbuds have these?? I don't need the extra bulk, what do you guys recommend for $20-30?

It comes with a clip so you can attach it to anything with a pocket. You dont have to keep it hanging pulling on the buds

AY YO....man these mofo headphones are BANGIN! I just received my order from WALMART.COM
Man I plugged these into my IpOd mini and took out my $20 Sony headphones and the sound is AMAZING for these lil things. WOW.

I have a pair of Panasonic SHOCKWAVE VMSS(Virtual Motion Sound System) headphones also and they are bangers, but these Headbanger Audios are AMAZING!

I wish I had known about these before christmas, They would have been Christmas presents at an affordable price.

For thoes using thiers on thier PSP. The clicking sound that sometimes can be heard in quite moments I have found just moving the amp thingy makes it go away. Has anyone else found this to work as well?

As to above comment. Now you see why I was so excited when I made this

warning---
i ordered the universal set off of amazon's website but from gamestop. my amazon receipt clearly says universal but my packing slip from gamestop says psp version and i got the psp version. now to enter the hell that is trying to get an exchange and not pay shipping. this just may be my bad luck but i dont see how the two could have been confused at the website so the interface between amazon and gamestop may be fubared.

Therefore, if your one of the many people looking to replicate the fantastic bass response you receive from your home audio, or car stereo systems in a pair of earphones, then look no further, these just might be what you?re looking for.

Of course, for accuracy, car systems are almost always utter crap (that's true for accurate bass as well as midrange and treble). However, if the only thing that's important to you is bass, then these will obviously do the trick- in the same way that some would suggest the Z-5500s over Gigaworks or Klipsches that are much better in terms of accuracy all the way around.

Here is another case of how subjective opinion about audio vary.
While I agree that high, midrange, and sometimes midbass sounds can be hard to reproduce accurately in the car, subbass however can be reproduced fairly flat down to below 20Hz in a car with a very modest system compared to a home system. Most home systems need to be big and powerful to get down low and flat.

I think many may not have a good idea about what an accurate system sounds like? If not, then take a trip to a good high end audio shop and listen to their reference equipment...usually set up in the " listening room."
Then, try to listen to a good set of headphones...the tonality should be about as close to the reference system.
Now, if you bought these $20 headphones listen to them....How do they sound compared to the reference stuff? More than likely they will sound bass heavy in comparison.

It all comes down to a matter of personal taste.

this thread just wont die.

so because of this, im going to run some errands to the mall (gamestop), walmart and best buy today.. and see if any of those places have them in stock.

its $20, i burn hundreds of dollars on fine dining, so i'll try out these little puppies regardless of my skepticism.
