Delivery (Amazon Prime):
On Wednesday morning, ordered at 0:30 - Thursday noon to 12 they were there.
As used by Amazon, top!
Packing:
The packaging has to be. The headphones come in a very neat-looking, black-blue box. The inner box has a magnetic lock, which I did not notice at the first open - in this price range determined not standard, but a nice touch.
Included are 2 pair of additional rubber articles of different sizes, a clip for the cable, a small hardcase bag and the headphones themselves.
However, it seemed to me as if the packaging has already been opened. The adhesive plastic tabs were off and the headphones inside were dusty and not looked like fresh out of production. The debris could be removed quickly.
Processing:
The headphones themselves are easy, yet making a solid impression. While the look of the "heads" I really like the ribbon cable is not necessarily beautiful to look at - is a matter of taste. But if it is extending the life of my headphones relatively damn!
The reinforced 3.5mm plug which serves to avoid cable breaks particularly like.
The small box will probably serve the same purpose, for me is more of a gimmick, because I have not found a way to store the headphones in gently. The cable is mMn 20x tight wind. not optimal.
Instead, I'll use a simple lunch box for transport.
By the mid-size rubber articles headphones sit with me perfectly in the ear - neither too tight nor too loose. Along with the light weight, the comfort top notch.
Sound:
The course most interesting aspect of each earphone - I did not expect much at this price admittedly.
So unpacked the headphones plugged in and reingehört (Here I use initially like Songs of Gotye or goldfish, since these quickly identify strengths and weaknesses of headphones In this case, "Gotye - Smoke and Mirrors".)
In fact, I was not very enthusiastic: As already described in other reviews of the bass sound Marketers is very dominant. Even with hip-hop / electronic music he drowned to my mind too much from the rest.
So I slowed in the sound options the bass a little (Poweramp on GalaxyS2) - and lo and behold!
With a little less bass show the sound Marketers what they really can. The bass sounds now tired of the ups not crisp but very clear.
Whether Pendulum "The Iceland -. Pt 2 (Dusk)" - Ben Howard "Diamonds" or Thousand Foot Krutch "I Climb", so far, everything was good listen. Even Chilly Gonzales' piano pieces sound very neat.
Conclusion:
Of course it would be very optimistic about the sound Marketers to buy S8 and expected a knotless Studio Sound. They do not deliver.
But here you get to a relatively really low price (20 8.14 18.99) a pair of headphones, which offers some fine tuning with the bass a very appealing music experience - and for home, traveling or where you just want to without a large headphones need to carry.
Those looking after gets an A strong buy recommendation.
The few shortcomings rich for me at this price not for a star deduction - therefore I forgive 5 Stars!

Addendum 8/26/14:
Meanwhile, I have brought the sound Marketers both an 8-hour train ride and a 10-hour bus ride behind me. The Court found that the noise shielding and especially the bass perception in-ear typically depend strongly on the seat of the handset in the ear:
The "fixed / deeper" in the ear canal (of course everything is relative, with deep, I do not mean just before the eardrum !!), the more the bass can be felt, and the better the noise shielding. The latter turned out to be really good, even when compared to my previous in-ears, and led me on two trips to a markedly more pleasant listening experience.
I recommend both the left and the right earphone as the "seat" to adapt, that the bass can be felt equally on both.

Addendum 06:02:15:
I read that in a large number of buyers, the headphones quickly give up the ghost. This is not the case with me.
Although I have the headphones not used every day since the purchase, but accompany me whenever I undertake longer trips with lighter loads. Here, the transport has proven itself in a lunch box so far!
