For what it was, I did not expect to madness headphones, but I'm not disappointed, it is to me sufficient for the bus in the morning and high school. Good sound, but slightly too acute by powerful they are against, but you should never put it up! Let your eardrum will explode or sometimes to music or bass is strong, you can hear some sizzling. In conclusion if you looked for cheap earphones, gummy are the right choice, even if I preferred but still original iPod earphone.
