Ultimate Ears 200 Noise-Isolating Earphones - Purple Review

Again, I am impressed by the quality of Logitrvh products. have been happily using a Logitech V220 Cordless Optical Mouse at the office and a newer Logitech Anywhere Mouse at home. They are both great mouses (mice?).
The Logitech Ultimate Ears 200 Earphones live up to the Logitech reputation. As I write this review, I have the earphones in, sitting in my office listening to CCR. The sound is good. The stereo separation is even better. While, I am used to using headphones, the earphones have some obvious advantages. Notably, they are less bulky, small enough to fit into a small plastic carrying case, about two by three inches in size.
I should note that the earphones are noise isolating, not noise cancelling. They work by attenuation of background sound, not cancellation. However, they do a good job of it. There remains only one question. How do you get any work done with these things on? "Down On The Corner, out in the street, Willy and the Poorboys are playin'; Bring a nickel; tap your feet."

Audiology Alpine iPod Earbuds Review

I use these for audio book listening while riding a bike - so sound quality is not a major factor for me - but I think the quality from these is better than average. The Maxell earbuds I bought with these are much much worse.
I bought these along with a set of Maxell EB-95's a couple of weeks ago and I like these Audiology earbuds just fine. The shape of the bud is a little different in that it has a part that sticks out and into the ear canal a little way, but not so much as to isolate the listener from the surroundings. I use these while on the bike so that's important to me. They also have a small volume control near the "Y" in the wire which I find to be a little annoying. I think this might be useful to other users, but not for me.
I give only 4 stars because I am getting a feeling that the white earbud covers are discoloring as I use them - after 2 weeks they are not as white as I recall when new. I may discard these after a few more weeks if the covers become stained from handling and use.
One more point - the plug is a right-angle type. I wish more were that way - I like to put my zen nano player in the watch pocket found on most blue-jeans, and the jacks that point straight up wear out faster. The right-angle jack works great for me.

I bought the iWOW software for iTunes a few years ago and have always been amazed by the sound quality on my computer. I decided to try the iWOW Adaptor hoping it could do the same thing for my iPhone. The adaptor totally surpassed my expectations. Everything from my music to podcasts sounds amazing! I am thinking about getting a second one for my husbands iPod for Christmas.

Well, folks. Since Amazon was out of stock, I bought them brick and mortar. I'll start by warning you thh case is an absolute joke. Gut that's where it stops being funny. The selection of tips is good, and the comfort is very good. The bass enhanced claim left some doubt in my mind as far as fidelity. Well, there is a bump in the bass.
Not a big boom, but a heft for sure. Better than I expected across the range. Comfort is above average. Wires are short for us tall guys. The instruments sound convincing (especially given the price point) Now keep in mind we have different ear shapes, and different preferences. The sound has a small U shape, similar to the tripl.fi's
It's not as refined as the triples. I gave them a 5 star rating based on the gap the less expensive iem's keep closing on the 400 dolar range of iem's At the fifty dollar tag, I've yet to hear anything under 100 dollars to sound better to my ears and preferences. After hearing several new iem's in the 50-80 dollar range, I was thinking how far this price range has come. In my honest opinion, this set of UE's sets a totally new standard for any iem under 100 dollars. I am thoroughly impressed. Do not hesitate. As I listen to these 50 dollar marvels, I wonder if some of my iem's costing as much as 200 dollars are going to get much use for quite some time. Soundstage is way above the price range, and the build looks like a nice step up from the metro fi series. I would choose these over the UE 700. That's just my opinion though. 50 dollars now buys a very solid mid-fi set of iem's.
A touch warm, while still having nice highs. OUTSTANDING !!

Emerge Technologies Retractable Stereo Computer Headset with Microphone (ETAUDIOVOIPS) Review

Emerge Technologies Retractable Stereo Computer Headset with Microphone (ETAUDIOVOIPS)
Average Reviews:

I love these headphones and their non-mic'ed little brothers.
The mic/headphone is small and simple enough to put in a briefcase and keep there until needed. On the road they provide both good headphone ability and pass-able microphone recording ability. All while not getting tangled (and therefore broken cords) and taking up a minimum amount of space.
If you are the type that demands $100 headphones or a studio quality mic, these are not for you.
And admittedly I would not use these for important client interviews. But, if I am traveling for a day or two and need to use VoIP, or talk to someone who can handle a lower quality mic (e.g., co-workers, family, friends, etc.) they work very well. The quality can be increased by raising the mic to your mouth.
The in-ear headphones provide good isolation from outside noise (e.g., airport, kids, etc.)
As with all retractable headphones/cables, eventually the retractable portion will break (happens much faster for the headphone-only versions that got used every day) and the cables will just snap back into the coil. (Which is why I stopped using the headphone only version of these.) The problem usually is that the ball bearing jumps out of the plastic track it rides in because the edges of the plastic track wears down. To "fix" this, peel off the manufacture's label, and remove the small Philips head screw that holds everything together. Throw away all the parts related to the spring (you'll never get that back together anyhow) and keep the now un-retractable cable/headphones/mic.
