When I later went to take them out, I had noticed that one of the ear buds had broken in half, exposing the innards of the headphones and rendering them useless. I contacted V-Moda since it was under warranty, and they did replace the pair after I paid for the postage to ship them back the broken pair and explain what happened. The problem is that the replacement pair broke in the exact same way again within a month or so.

3) The wiring quality looks a little tougher than the SONYs, but we will have to wait and see how they hold up...as I noted in my SONY review on the MDR-EX71, the quality of the wiring jacket sucks and the reason for the change of manufacturer. 4) Length of cord is good - but a little too long for my tastes. Good to have a cord wrap to tighten up the loose wiring.

For the money I was expecting better quality after several months they stopped working as well, then I could only get playback in one ear. They are a cut above the cheapest earbuds and they do stay in pretty well unless you are jumping up and down. I was disappointed but not surprised.

These earbuds defiantly hold up to title description and are better then the same price you would pay for apples version. I have a ipod and i also paid a lot of money for apples version of earbuds, while they were significantly louder the thin silicon ear cups were disappointing in holding themselves inside my ear as i worked out. Even more so they were too fragile when the cord got disconnected and i was left with just one working ear bud.

At that point, I had enough, and didn't even bother trying to go through the whole process of trying to get them replaced by V-Moda. The only pro I got out of them was I was able to take the silicon fittings for the V-Moda ear buds and use them on my old Sony ear buds, which have lasted MUCH longer, and maintain the benefits I listed earlier about V-Moda's silicon fittings. So there you have it, the V-Moda Bass Freq is a fine product for the buck on the surface, but underneath, the quality of its construction is extraordinarily poor and may end up being a wasted purchase.

I bought these to replace my old JVC earbuds that after two years of heavy use and wear and tear have all but given out. The sound is good and the bass is better than average; however, I wouldn't advertise them as sound isolating and the "modawrap" seems unnessecary seeing as how the cord is only a couple feet long (which was another disappointment for me, my old JVC buds had a cord at least twice as long, which was nice for listening to music on my computer without disturbing others around me). Overall I'd say they're okay, not great, but not a bust either.

Luckily the Tekserve folks allowed me to exchange it; apparently it happened so often V-Moda should call it a package design defect. Also, the silicon plugs keep getting pulled off so I keep losing them. My left earbud finally stopped working after 14 months of use, and I used them only once a week.

The problem was that after six months of normal usage (commuting via subway daily), one ear stopped working entirely. I came to find out that these earbuds use notoriously thin internal wires that are prone to breaking when flexed. With a little research there are alternative earbuds with great bass definition in the same price range that have better durability.

Before, I was using the headset that came with the IPOD; which I thought wasn't too bad but some great sound was missing. So, when this headset finally became defective, I had the opportunity to find another one. After trying a couple of mediocre headsets, I checked the internet for some recommendations, and most of the positive remarks went to V-MODA.

For me these were a waste of money. The sound is tinny and washed out. The bass isn't that great either.

A week or so later the left channel went out too. Order date: 10/8/07, right channel failure date: 11/21/07, left channel failure: 11/29/07. Unless you see headphones as part of a disposable 2-month cycle, I would purchase something else.

I buy these V-MODA and not only does the black color match my black ipod but they were cheaper and work better. The silicon cups are thicker then apples and hold way better, i switched from the small to medium size and hardly move; also due to the thickness it locks out outside noise better.

I purchased a pair of the V-Moda Bass Freq in Bling Bling Black in September 2007 and was initially very pleased with the product. Reviews that awarded praise for its booming bass (perhaps too booming for certain audiophiles) and overall good sound quality for the price ($30-40), compared to like products, were spot on. After owning multiple pairs of Sony MDR-EX51LP Fontopia Headphones with silicon fittings that would repeatedly fall off and get lost I was very happy to not experience that with my new V-Moda ear buds.

They also did a much better job of blocking out noise than my previous Sony ear buds, and were clearly louder, which meant less need to turn up the volume on my iPod and waste battery. As someone who lives in NYC and takes the subway where this is a huge factor, as I would often have to jack up the volume to full to even hear music clearly (and I do not have hearing loss). So, it seemed like the perfect purchase, but that was to change much sooner than anyone could expect.

One evening I was carrying the headphones in my jeans pocket (which does not come with a case, although who ever uses most of them anyway?), attached to, and wrapped around my iPod. I may have sat on them, but I am not heavy by any means, and I'd done that with previous ear buds without a problem. That was also the only place I could carry them, but it appears that was a big mistake.

When used with an iPod the volume had to be cranked up just to get sound out of them. Compared with the original Apple ear buds these don't even come close. Not worth returning...probably just throw them out.

I have the "Bling Bling Black" Bass Freq's and they sound better than most of the earbuds I have tried. However, the rubber earpieces get really slippery when they're wet, so they slip out very easily when I work out. They're fine for use travelling, but I would not recommend if you will be using while exercising.

These produced so much bass with my I pod that I could barely hear the music, just the pounding. I like bass, but unless that's all you want to hear, then these are not for you. There were a comfortable fit, but the cord tangles easily.

I guess I was one of the lucky ones that did not get a defective product .. for $20 I think they are worth every penny...

I tried several different makes with "bass boosting" or "bass enhancing" designs and I was disappointed with the results. Too often, the other brands I tried just sounded muddled or they didn't fit my ears. I was not looking to spend a lot of money on a set of high end ear buds that I would need to worry about losing or ruining accidently.

I tried the V-MODA Bass Freq earbuds, and they do not have the treble clarity necessary for classical music. Their sound is quity tinny.

General sound quality is mediocre, sorta muddy, and the bass is particularly bad. Maybe their higher end models deliver good bass, but these earphones are not very good.

The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is that they didn't provide nearly the amount of noise isolation advertised. They're better than the iPod earbuds since those don't provide any isolation but not even close to that of something like Etymotic Research ER6i Isolator In-Ear Earphones (White) the sound isolation of the V-Moda is marginal, it does a little bit but not very much. They're on par with other earbuds of this type.

but these are great because they actually have nice bass (especially when you ipod EQ is on bass boost), fit nicely and are pretty durable. Also the silicon are hard to remove which is a major plus because I hate losing them. You can't go wrong with these, and they're only $30.

I didn't want to spend buckets of money on headphones I would probably end up losing or destroying, but I couldn't abide the pitiful sound of the Apple supplied ipod earbuds. Scattered amidst the many positive reviews here on Amazon were a few that complained of either too much bass, or not as advertised bass.

Low quality earbuds, tiny bass sound, cheap treble. Never could get crisp sound out of them even after messing with the ipod's EQ. Not for audiophiles.

I just hope that the durability of the V-MODA out lasts my SONYs - it will be a wait and see. I would recommend these to someone that is looking for something different than iPods or SONYs ear buds. But with V-MODA, they need to still work on the sound quality.

Perhaps not for bass officionados but plenty adequate for the average music enthusiast and at a reasonable price.

V-Moda offers a pretty modest array of colors to choose from (enough to match your music player). The style of these earphones is pretty slick, and it will match with your music player quite nicely.

If you listen to clasical or jazz music or a lot of audiobooks then these may not be the speakers for you. However, if you want to have a great sound and comfort while working out, you are not going to find better even at double the price.

General sound quality is mediocre, sorta muddy, and the bass is particularly bad. Maybe their higher end models deliver good bass, but these earphones are not very good.

The interchangeable buds allowed me to finally find some earphones that not only fit in my ear but were not uncomfortable and stayed there while I exercise. All around decent product.

I own some Noise Canceling Headphones which basically produce white noise in order to drown out external noise. With that technology, battery power is necessary. However, these earphones do not require batteries to turn down external noise.

The downside of the heavy bass is that if you're not a bass addict, you will most likely not like these. These earphones are for the people who enjoy deep bass. If you're a person that likes earphones that have balanced low, mid, and high frequencies, you will possibly not enjoy the quality of these.

V-Moda's description is right on the money. I recommend these to anyone interested in a good, COMFORTABLE set of earphones that you don't have to pay a fortune to enjoy. I also like the little silicon cord wrapper that came with them.

These were great headphones until they broke after only 5 months! What a bust, I should have listened to the other reviewers about the likelihood that the cord will break where it connects the plug. Now only the left side works...not recommended!

The only thing it would really do is add weight to the cord and pull the earbuds out of your ear... *shrugs* All in all these earbuds aren't bad, but honestly I'd recommend going for the Sonys even if they are a little more money now.

Unfortunately, the sound quality isn't as clear as the Sonys, nor is the bass as solid. The fit on these isn't bad, the swappable ear pieces is nice (the Sony comes with that as well). I've never found a use for that crummy little thing you wrap the cord around.

Even though they supply three different cushions, the middle size still did not fit as well as the MDR-EX71s. So I swapped out the V-Moda's for the Sonys and they fit better...but the sound quality changed... It was interesting to note that the sound had a more bass and slightly muffled...so I kept the V-Moda's cushions on.

Despite the good customer reviews for this product, I was still shocked at the premium sound quality they deliver. The earbuds are comfortable and simply due to their design have quite a bit of intrinsic noise canceling.

Overall a fairly good product for the price, but if you're looking for great sound quality you're buying the wrong product. Also, FYI the plug does not work on the iphone like other v-moda headphones.

I bought this product because it had a good editor's review on CNET. The sound quality is not as good as the buds that came with our MP3 player.

I would recommend trying out all the ear pieces (which are included) in order to determine which ear pieces give you the best sound isolation and ultimately the best sound quality. I am not disappointed so far by these.

First, its fit is superior than any other earbud I tried. The material that gets inside your ear feels quite special, it somehow sticks to your ear and do not get out with movement. Yet, when you want to get it out, you get surprised with how easily you take it off.
