VERY good earbuds so far.....

I just got them today, plugged them into my laptop to play an orchestral piece. It was a bit bass heavy for my taste. The Shure E2 was a lot clearer for my taste when listening to classical. Now, I'm sure if I used them on my iPod and change the EQ settings I probably can get the sound I want. But the box did say that it's bass heavy, so maybe not.

Aside from my own preference these earbuds are great. I'm sure listening to other styles would be awesome. I'll write a review again when I use it on the train listening to jazz, hiphop, rock and bluegrass.

I just a review that it needs time to break in, so the sound may be different after 2 days.

Better than Bose

The last pair of headphones I owned was the Bose TriPort headphones (the ones that go over the ear and fit around them) and I am so very impressed at the fact that these little buds are more powerful than these massive cans! I was a little skeptical at first because 'V-moda, who the *$%# are these guys?' But my Bose garbagephones left channel quit working after 6 months of use. As I looked at the flimsy rubber that connected the cord to the jack, it reminded me exactly like a pair of headphones for $2.99 on the clearance rack. No wonder they stopped working, they are built like garbage! I saw the cord design of the V-Moda's and I thought "now this makes sense, a straight plug held together by metal housing!". The colors match my iPod's case, they are tiny, and extremely lightweight. Even at first use I was blown away by the quality of sound, the bass is extremely powerful; a much more powerful punch than the Bose, but not so powerful to the point where it distorts any midrange and highs. The soundstage is completely enveloping; the moment I put these headphones on, they fit perfectly in my ears and sucked out a good chunk of outside noise (not perfectly isolating, but adequate for quality sound, better than the Bose). Upon first wearing them, they felt uncomfortable at first, almost a painful uncomfortable, but I just needed to change the fitting to the next size up, then no problems. They say that you have to 'burn them in' by letting them run for 12 hours, After using them for about 6, the sound is getting better and better. The bass at first is overpowering, but the mids and treble start mixing themselves in and you get a perfect blend of truly blissful sound. The soundstage of the bose over-the-ear headphones had space to resonate around the ear, and that created a unique soundstage, but bass notes at certain frequencies felt inconsistent, by comparison to the Vibes, the sound is straight-to-the-cranium intense. Sound is very incredible, perfect for portable music players. Other, more expensive headphones obviously will get a more 'genuine' sound, but I couldn't imagine what more you could want when using an MP3 player.
