Symphonized Premium Wooden Earphones Wired (3.5mm Jack) Deep Bass Sound, 3D Sound, Microphone Volume Control, 90% Noise Cancelling for Type C Devices. Earphones for Android

I auditioned these phones with the CD "Eventide" by Voces 6--the purest, most unembellished sound (the vibrato-less, pitch-perfect, soprano-register voices suggestive of pre-19th century "castrati") I've heard in 60 years of collecting LPs, cassettes and CDs. (I use "streaming" not for attentive listening but for functional "convenience"--while treadmilling, driving, falling asleep, etc.). These Symphonized earphones outmatch 5-6 well-reviewed earphone brands (JVC, Sony, JBL, Ultimate Ears, Altec Lansing, etc.) and, to my surprise, are more full, realistic, revealing and spine-tingling than my new, studio-quality Sony headphones (cost $80) and my trendy Beats headphones (a gift, costing $250 ). Great sound from headphones is less the function of cost-prohibitive "brand" names and models than of the "seal" (esp. with earphones), the restriction of ambient "noise," and of course the engineering (at least half of my collection comprises the work of a single engineer who worked for Blue Note, Prestige, Impulse, Verve and several other labels--NONE (yes, not one) of his efforts true to the actual sound of an acoustic piano (let alone representing the unique sonic characteristics distinguishing a Steinway, a Bosendorfer, a Beckstein, a Baldwin, Yamaha, Kawaii, etc. or capturing the personal "voice" of the artist ("touch" is a word inadequate to describe the poignant, complex, textured quality that distinguishes, for example, Bill Evans' "voice" from that of George Shearing or Hank Jones or Tommy Flanagan or Vladimir Horowitz or Artur Rubenstein). If musicians are surprised upon hearing the foregoing statement, it's simply because their ears haver been favored with so few alternatives they have adjusted (or "malajusted") to the standards and low norm of a heavily hyped engineer who ate up more work than his consumers found time to attend to (musicians are not necessarily the most qualified in critiquing their art--they're too busy woodshedding, composing, gigging, auditioning tons of gear--to be bothered with a subject as nuanced as "aesthetics" or as complex as "the physics of the pianoforte." In my experience, including associations with numerous musicians, spending a bundle on sound-reproducing equipment--including speakers and headphones--is overrated and unnecessary. As these earphones (which cost me $15) prove, you can gain access to all of the humanly-perceivable information in the grooves of a track at a very reasonable price. The only question concerns the durability of the equipment. Earphones sustain damage easily and frequently--and, moreover, are routinely lost (I've misplaced them in one room of my house for as long as ten years). I've never spent more than $50 on a pair of earphones--or $80 on headphones. Sure, pay extra for the warranty--but good luck remembering that you bought it and in finding it and in convincing the issuer than you deserve remuneration for your $15 investment. So, yese, these inexpensive Symphonize earphones are hypersensitive, responding instantly to the twitch of a volume control on a powerful amplifier. And the cord noise is significant enough to provoke complaints from listeners who should put their mind on the music and not on making noise by rubbing their fingers on the wires. If you plan to wear them while jogging or doing physical work, spend the same amount on a pair of JVC Marshmallow phones--"inefficient" (i.e. you'll need to crank your player to max volume and tolerate the distortion) but usable and durable (since their hard foam tips are integral with the speaker in the phone). But the bottom line is that, ever for serious, in-studio listening--these $15 phones are guaranteed to produce not merely good sound but "epiphanies" about your chosen musical source. in short, these Symphonized phones are State of the Art.

I am comparing Symphonized GLXY to Sennheiser CX300-II and Creative EP-630i which are very similar on their earpiece shape and size. They are all very comfortable to wear and probably the most comfortable earphones I have. You pretty much forget them you are wearing the earphone and enjoying the music, with one exception that they all have quite a bit of microphonics issue and GLXY is the worst one so they are not designed for active people. I tried them on iPhone 6, Galaxy S3, and Onkyo HT-R820THX receiver that used for home theater. Onkyo AVR headphone jack is using its 130W main speaker channels discrete driver with build-in series resistor about 390ohm which is quite common for integrated receiver phone jack output. I also have Sennheiser HD600 that I use it with the Onkyo receiver. I have a dedicated music speaker system using Vienna Acoustics Mahler for serious music listening so I can claim I do know what the reference sound should be, although I can't say I am audiophile since I am not as serious and picky. The result is very interesting since different phone works better on different devices with quite extreme behavior. Using Onkyo receiver, HD600 is the best obviously, following by EP-630i and then CX300ii. GLXY is quite disappointing since the bass is significantly less and not smooth at all. EP-630i has better bass control than CX300ii but both are quite pleasant using with Onkyo. Sometimes I prefer to use them rather than HD600 since they are much more comfortable while HD600 has more pressure on my head and my ears get warm. Onkyo receiver is brighter comparing to my Denon 4308ci receiver and I prefer using Onkyo home theater for TV watching and headphone listening. I use Denon home theater for Blu-ray and other HD music. No bass problem using both CX300ii and EP-630i with Onkyo as you read from internet. On Denon actually all three are behaving nicely with well controlled bass. Using Galaxy S3 is completely different story, I was quite surprised how good the sound coming out from GLXY. I never heard IEM can produce such clear and beautiful music from smartphone, well I don't have the high-end IEM and no plan to get one either. The bass is strong and well controlled which is a very strange thing to me since it was horrible with Onkyo. Midrange is very good same as using Onkyo. Treble is pleasant comparing to both CX300ii and EP-630i. For some reason CX300ii is so muddy on its bass with S3 and it is painful to use it for the music with strong bass. EP-630i is little better than CX300ii on the bass but still far away comparing to GLXY. Symphonized really did something right on this IEM but it is very interesting that it only fit S3 driver for some reason. I give it 5 star because of this performance. Using iPhone 6, both CX300ii and EP-630i shine much better than GLXY on bass again, no muddy bass at all, amazing. GLXY somehow is missing the bass again, very strange. I guess CX300ii and EP-630i are all tuned for iPhone as indicated on their model names with letter "i" so they really sing with iPhone, but the treble is still too bright to my ear some time, especially for the music with high note. GLXY has better treble on iPhone but missing the bass is a problem, even for me who is not a bass head at all. So be careful if you are using iPhone.

I usually stick to Sony, Creative or Sennheiser earphones, which are pricey, but very good. Intrigued by these "wood" phones,and the advantages claimed for them.Was a bit skeptical ,don't know this Manufacturer,but at £15 thought that I had nothing to loose by giving them a go. Tested them on my Sony Walkman,and Kindle Fire on a variety of music types,and must say that the overall volume is much better than my previous phones, could not push the volume up to any where near maximum volume,(would have deafened myself) which of course is good from the possible distortion aspect. Great bass response, clear ,well defined, and in no way overpowering, or boomey.Great separation,good mid range, and nice treble(no shrillness ) I am no Sound Engineer ,but appreciate Hi -Fi quality reproduction,and could not fault the overall sound experience(No doubt some "Nit Pickers" will, irrespective of the very competitive price.) Impressed by these comfortable headphones,which have decent noise isolating properties,which are as good as any that I have tried.(None seem to completely "blank off "external sounds,but are fine, if you insert them correctly into the ear.) Pleased to have given these a chance, as I now see that these give the sound ,that I like,without having to pay so much more for the established"Brand Names".

Sound is good. They have good bass, but not too overpowering. They block out a lot of noise as well and are quite comfortable. The earphones themselves are actually quite beautiful. The cord is also longer than usual (roughly 5 feet [~1.5 meters]). The plug has a flexible 45° angle, so it is more forgiving in the way it bends in your pocket. The cord is nylon, and seems far more durable than rubber, but does produce a bit more noise than rubber cords when brushed against certain clothing items — especially zippers. My only real issue with them is that they don't have any volume control buttons on the mic. Other than that, great earphones.

Sind etwas kleiner und preiswerter als die neueren Symphonized NRG 3.0 Premium, aber bei der Tonqualität m.E. geringfügig schlechter. Das Kabel verursacht Geräusche was bei den neueren Hörern nicht der Fall ist. Der Halt im Gehörgang ist aber besser und dadurch werden die Umweltgeräusche besser ausgeblendet. Diese Tonqualität (von beiden Hörern) ist sonst nicht in diesem Preissegment zu finden und wenn man halbwegs achtsam mit den Teilen umgeht halten sie auch lange. Einfach selber probieren mit welchen man besser zurechtkommt, Preis/Leistung ist jedenfalls super.

Love this product. The colour is cool as well.

Buenas tardes: hace un rato que las he recibido y,de momento se escuchan muy bien.¡ a ver que pasa con el tiempo! Tengo que decir que NO vienen con ninguna bolsa para guardarlas, sólo con el embalaje de plástico.
