Customer Review: No tangles! Over One Year Out and still alive!
Summary: 5 Stars
I like these headphones. Whoever designed them came up with some innovative features that I haven't seen on other headphones. The cloth covering on the wires does a great job of keeping them from getting tangled. Most other earphones I've used have knotted up fairly easily and the rubbery texture of the cables makes them difficult to undo. The cloth covering helps prevent this. The magnets keep them from knotting up as well. I haven't seen these features on any other phones, though there are probably some out there that I don't know about. The cable does make a little noise if it rubs on something, but I haven't found this to be particularly annoying as some of the other reviewers have suggested. The sound quality is good and they seem are bit louder with my Zune than others that I've tried. I generally go through a pair of headphone every 2-3 months (usually JBL or Phillips in the 20-35 dollar range). Hopefully the zune headphones will hold up longer. The construction seems sturdy. I've had them 3 weeks now and they are holding up fine.
****One Year+ Update*******
I use these phones almost every day so they have a fair amount of wear. I don't wear them while exercising, just walking or listening to podcasts in bed. I haven't really beaten on this pair but I haven't babied them either. They have held up well though not perfectly. The cable herniated through the woven covering in a few spots. This happens if you let it knot up and pull it tight*. The cables resist tangles but aren't tangle proof. I still think they are easier to keep straight than cables insulated with ordinary rubber because the fabric isn't as sticky. The rubber boot over the audio jack started to split a few months ago. I wrapped thread around it to prevent further splitting. Even with the cosmetic wear, these earphones still work fine on both channels with no wiggly connections. They might not be pretty anymore, but they keep going. I think they are definitely worth the price considering other phones generally have lasted 2-3 months with the same level of usage. I'll post again when they finally die.
* If I could prevent my 14 year old from "borrowing" them I think the hernias would be less of a problem and they would be in better condition in general. I got a pair for her to use, but somehow she often wants to take mine.
