Does movement (like walking) interrupt music because you can hear every bumping sound the cable makes against your legs, body etc? I have owned Skullcandy Ink'd earbuds and when I walk with them the cable sends all the noise to my ears (isolated from all other sounds) and it interrupts the music flow.

I've read posts that there are third party sellers selling counterfeit Sennheiser products. Did you purchase yours directly from Amazon and not a third party? Just curious.

I've read posts that bigfoot and the chupacabra are running rampant in the SE United States, too.

I have two devices that I use in alternation, one ear, then the other ear. I choose not to use both ear pieces at the same time due to the sound amplification beings "too loud". For me at least. But the devices work wonderfully well in amplifying high tone sounds and words, which is what I was lacking. Tom.

I've had both. Sadly they both suffered from the same problem. They became disconnected from the bud itself. It was nice having the big water proof dongle for runs and things like that but ultimately I think that the sound quality was roughly the same between the two. I had both for about 6-9 months. Don't get me wrong these are great earbuds but I did expect them to last longer and I will probably not purchase them again. Currently I have both the Harman Kardon BT over-ear headphones and the NC model as well. No complaints yet.

The neck ones suck for exercising. They stay in your ears-but the neck band rubs against your clothes and you pick up the sound. It's really annoying. I found them unlistenable. I only tried them because I've been forced into wearing hats when I run (skin issues). Try the Sony MDR-AS35. I ordered a pair of Sennheiser (Adidas) PX 685i. They are over the head. Have not tried them yet (still using my Sony pair). The look like they may be great. Barr Hill

I assume by "microphonic" you mean they transmit noise up the cable to the headphones when the cable touches something. The cables are thin and relatively stiff. I just confirmed that if you tap on the cable, it will transmit the noise into the headphones (done with no music). I don't move around much when listening with headphones, so I haven't noticed it as an issue. My biggest concern is inadvertently inducing a crimp in the cable (because they are stiff, much more so than the cables for my Grado SR125s).

By any chance, when you activate it, does it just sound like moderate white noise, but you still hear what's going on outside of the earbuds? Because I have that problem as well, and I too have an Android. The noise-cancellation isn't all that great. If anything, it makes the sound quality worse. Why the noise-cancellation doesn't work well, I don't know. I'll just say the quality of the earbuds isn't the best.

On long rides I play music and hear it just fine. I do not use earbuds and play my music through the speaker. Actually I had to turn it down a few times because the other riders would comment on my music selection. (I tend to listen to hard rock & metal when I exercise.)

I do hear that noise occasionally, especially if I'm trying to play softly. However, I don't seem to hear it when I use the headphones. So far, it hasn't bothered me much, or else I'm getting used to it.

The cord does not transmit sound from bumps or rubs on clothing. If you start out by straightening the cord out before you start listening, it usually does not bunch. I do recommend handling it with care.

I use earbuds however, I didn't like the fit so I use the ones that came with my iphone. I have an old set of Koss headphones and the pin type plug in works fine with it. I don't use them because they are bulky but I just tried them and the sound was fine. If the Sansa ever quits working and is charged. Reset it by holding the start button for a minute or so. It did that once to me and restarted ok.

Just a guess: because you can't hear the instructor? Or her music? One thing I love about my UA iPod is that my gym plays loud (terrible!) music over their speakers. The earbuds fit so well, I can't hear the awful music at all. If you're doing water aerobics, don't you need to hear what's going on around you?

I'd like to know the same. It happened to me exactly you described and my headphone only plays on one side and it's very disturbing to have to fixed it every other stroke.If you find that out let me know. TksClaudia

Since they are over ear and on the large side, they may move around with activities, like running on a treadmill. There are more portable options out there, like in-canal earbuds.

Cristy Showers, I am unsure as to whether there are replacement buds. Did you not receive the extra 2 pair included with your original purchase? I have found that all the earbuds I have, no matter the brand, the earbud sleeves are interchangeable. I have had probably at lease 6-7 pair of all names & sizes. As long as the little speaker is near about the same size? You can use any kind. I am sure if you contact JVC they can give you more info. I never have them long enough to need replacement. I bought 3 pair of behind the head, over the ear, and ear cup styles now. I have tiny ears, and cannot stand buds anymore. If I were you, go up to a better pair of JVC that surround your ear, you will NOT believe how much better the sound is.

I'm not sure what that is, but it doesn't work well with my iphone. I am casually listening on my commute (bus) into work, and it'll work for a second, then it sounds like I'm in a tunnel, and I have to jiggle the connection to get it working again. the colors are cool, and they stay in my ears, but the sound is in and out.

I believe in my personal experience is to provide better quality of sound. My EarPods are great and working wonderfully, the pointing at you is the main speaker that feeds you most of the music. Try it out, I was spekitcal and switching too, but I tried it and now I probably wouldn't go back because the pervious ones I had would always hank on my ears when trying to pull them now quickly and these just flow out. You know what I mean. I hope this was helpful and enjoy if you do decide to change EarPods.

the sound comes from your computer not the ewi... so yes if you plug in the head phones it cuts off the sound to the speakers...and since there are no moving parts, there is no clicking sounds from touching the keys... it is an instrument all by its self and requires you to practice the difference from changing octives, once mastered there is no end what you can do with the ewi... have fun
