How are the headphones? I've had someone tell me that the earphones that come with the ipod really suck, is that true?

On the contrary, I love the headphones. They're inexpensive so buying another pair is very simple, they are stunning white and I find them to be durable for my everyday use, and the fact that you can pull this little tab up them to make winding 'em up easier is SUCH a great feature that it offers, and I find them way more comfortable than a lot of headphones--but that's just me.

I wear them a lot at work, bout 8 hours a day 5 days a week. They are horrible. They hurt really bad after about an hour. I now have red parts on the ears because of the irritation they cause. I would suggest using them for a limited time or buy some in the ear earbuds.

Are you kidding me? Everyone I've talked to says the earbuds are horrible. For 300 hundred dollars you think they could include the ac power adapter and some in ear buds. Its not much to ask. These things hurt your ears and are only comfortable if you only use them maybe an hour a day. Past that, severe pain.

The earphones that come with it do suck. Mine lasted two weeks before I replaced them with some Sony in-ear buds. Not only are they more comfortable, but they tend to block out ambient noises.

Actually MUCH better. Audio on an iPod is compressed sound, but most audio from a home system is not. Plus, your home audio system has a much better amplifier, meaning less distortion in sound. So not only can you crank the volume louder, it will sound much better at both low and high volume than with an iPod. So yes, great headphones are even better with a home system. Hope this helps!

Hi Andrea, I would love to help you here. Have you been able to pair them to any device or is it just the iPod 5 that you are having trouble with? Is the LED flashing blue/red alternately which indicates the headphones are in pairing mode? Please send us an email at support@lil-gadgets.com and we would be happy to help you further troubleshoot.Jacquieco-founder, LilGadgets

I can only vouch for the Q's. They are the best headphones that I've ever owned. I love them daily. And they're very comfortable to use.

In my personal opinion this is the only true "iPhone Killer" I've ran across. Like the popularity of the iPod and iTouch, of course accessories are not as abundant as the Apple Products (only, due to pure marketing by Nokia). Please share your opinion regarding this subject. (Present owner's of this item please respond)?

I love my Klipsh S4 earbuds. Far superior comfort and sound compared to ipod stock earphones. Cost about $80, but you wont believe the difference in sound. Especially bass.

I have had my iPod for many years and it works nicely with it. You need to use earphones to hear it. My ipod predates iPads.If you want the exact year let me know.

I don't have an issue with the bass setting on mine. Have you checked the EQ on your iPod? Make sure it's not on Super Bass. Or, you can make sure you lighten up the bass setting.

Yes I have and still do. I use earbuds but it's still not all that great. There are other issues too, do you have a problem with clarity? The touch screen is not very "touchy"...very frustrating. Battery also gets extremely hot I have to turn it off after a while. I would not buy one again.

Hi John, u clearly can save ur money because you get punchyer bass out of much cheaper earphones. This one is great in hearing the details, it feels like the iPod is connected to the brain directly "Super great details and presence" but overall is not the best comfort hearing solution and money wise is big waste if not used

They do have good sound. I'm really liking them. If anyone else is around and you are using the headphones, make sure they know to tap you if they need to get your attention unless the volume isn't loud.

If you have these headphones, your bass should be kicking! I get strong bass even when driven from an iPod. Check the headphones with a different source, plug them into something else and see if that improves the bass. If it does, then your source is not driving the headphones well. If there is restricted bass even with another source, I think you have a bad set of headphones that need to be returned. These things are very strong in the bass. Mine were bass happy out of the box, but the recommendation to loosen them up is a good one and I support that.

The $70 apple in ear headphones are amazing and well worth the money, regardless of whether you are buying them for the new shuffle or something else. I've tried others that cost much more that were not nearly as good as these.

I have had a Zen Micro for over a year. I'm pretty rough on it. The headphone jack started acting up about a month ago. The left channel works intermittently if I rotate the jack. Other than that it has been flawless. Screw Ipod, I'll buy another Creative product.

I think they should be fine. I use them primarily with my computer-good noise reduction and sound quality. Can't see why it would be different with an ipod. Enjoy!

i haven't noticed any changes in volume during any time using it with a typical ipod. i dont have the phone, so i cant tell you if there is a connection issue. these are great though!

Actually, I've found them quite good out of the Apple system and can probably compete with the Beats i have at home, they sound amazing in my computer and home system as well.. good luck with them.
