Surprised and pleased

After my old AKG K 324 P in-ear headphones (not more uniformly loud, insulation breaks, peeling silver paint, sound quality decrease massively) were already übelst taken after years of use
I have decided to buy new headphones, and am after a long search in these InEars stuck.

To my requests to an ear (of course it is not on the plan that he can fly so expensive headphones are now also again not.): Good sound, durable, outwardly calm shielded (quality design)

* Direction Electronic Music, classical, rock should be presented in a balanced for me - the AKG were rather very bassy, ​​or at the end rather mushy. - The Philips are surprisingly clear and powerful. Am very satisfied.

* Shielding: Since I now and then in the library listening to music, have made me already aware people that the AKG are very loud when they * are * in the ear. I never noticed, because if I take out, they are barely audible. Apparently the sound is somehow transmitted through the housing or on the pinna and thus disturbs the whole neighborhood without having it "wants". - Although it is not specified in the Product Overview: This Philips are outward * completely silent *! One can fairly hear loud music and the neighbor does not hear anything. Impressive. Must be because of the aluminum housing.

* Processing: The aluminum housing makes a very solid impression, and gives one the feeling of having invested properly. The reinforced fabric cables to the separation of the cable to the fork is properly chic as it is no longer so easily twisted, and if you wear it under tshirt not stick to the skin. Toll.

* Rubber essays: The pre essays were too big for me, even though I thought I had full-size Lauscher - after a while they slipped out of itself, or if you reingerammte properly, you had to time a headache or an unpleasant pressure on the ears ner. Then have it made smaller. And lo and behold - no more problems.

* Android - do not use the app, the button on the remote control also works as to start and stop the music. I do not need more.

* Headset - people with whom I speak, are very satisfied with the sound quality (my phone itself with the built-Micro has big problems). Amazing - I would have expected more of a product in which Köpfhörerlastige quality, but the few euros more have apparently brought me a pretty good micro.

* Cable cleanup help
But quite nice gimmick is somewhat tricky, every pure push the cable ends. Provides one probably represents an increased cable breaking point, if you do this for a whole year, so am careful. But it helps. So unverheddert I rarely transported headphones.

So I can only recommend the InEars, they make a good impression all round, and so far nothing negative I noticed, even though I, as regards technique can be quite querulous (in the context of the price)

If something I'll notice update it here at this point

** Update 07/02/2014: Almost a year ago and still satisfied. Still good sound, cable is in perfect condition, twisted anything, not bent. Still looks almost like new. Drive it every day bicycle, use them in the library and continue the path. **
