Audio-Technica ATH-CKF500 In-Ear Headphones w/ Rhinestone (various colors) $11 + Free Shipping (expired)

I can tell you from first hand experience, that these guys have the best customer service around.

I bought the Audio-technica QuietPoint ATH-ANC3 Noise cancelling earbuds. These earbuds are great for travel and plane. They reduce a good bit of noise reduction.

Probably within Yr 2 or Yr 3 (original warranty expired), after much use in gym and travel, the wire started to weaken and I had lost some of 4-6 variations of earplugs they provide (to fit your ear mold). I emailed the company thinking that there was no way I could get them fix or send me a replacement of earplugs. To my amazement. They REPLACED the entire earbuds plus a new traveling case and earplugs. All I paid for was shipping to them.

They care about their customers.

Thanks for the new code, it worked perfectly, and just before the cut-off of 4pm for Christmas shipping. I got a black one for me and a pink one for my sister-in-law, the specs for the earphones actually look really great.

It comes with a key. Why the **** not.
I got the gold/brown version with JAM code

no paypal with code?

any reviews about these headphones? about to be buy but just wondering about the quality, better than cheap skullcandys'?

Quote from mrheavysilence : Any comment on the bass?

Not bass heavy, the bass is tight and well defined. I like it, because it is as neutral as possible. It doesn't mud the sound.

Most people with different understanding for music will not like it - if you enjoy heavy bass subwoofers for a rap music in your car, probably these are not for you.

Also, as I said, these are clipping. It was apparent at the beginning, it seems not anymore, after two months every day usage. They need burn in.

Amazon has the brown for $12.60

Quote from eknick : DONT get it if you are a guy, the ear buds itself is way too small to fit a guys ear and it comes with 'bling'

Can anyone else comment on this?

Edit:

From the manufacturer's site [audio-technica.com]:

Quote : Designed for women, the stylish ATH-CKF500 earphone is embellished with rhinestone detailing, elegant calligraphy and comes with a chic key-shaped cable wrap.

cheaper at buy.com by a buck

I will take brands from Audio Technica and Sennheiser over craptastic Dre Beats any day in terms of quality and value. I was suckered into getting Dre tours and pros and regret doing so since I don't even use them. Good deal.

how do these compare to the ultimate ears 200 that amazon sells for cheap?
