I just got them today. Bigger than expected but a really good sound quality. From my understanding the sound gets better over time. We'll see...

My music listening is as follows:

80% earbuds
10% mini speakers in my bathroom
5% laptop
5% car (I work 10 minutes from my house, not much of a commute)

That last one kills me cause I love listening to music in my car. I need something for around the house and I've been eyeing some bluetooth headphones for a minute.

Bluetooth range is excellent. I left my phone on the 1st floor and was able to listen to music on the second floor. I even answered a phone call while on the 2nd floor. Communication was very clear.

Don't be scared of the brand, people. I own both of these:

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13645_3-57337747-47/how-good-can-$21.59-headphones-be/

http://lifehacker.com/5927570/the-monoprice-8320s-are-the-best-earbuds-youll-find-under-10

And they're both fantastic. The build quality won't match $300 cans, and they're generally pretty ugly, but good god the combo of sound and value is so far beyond anything else I've seen, it's ridiculous. I highly recommend both the in-ear monitors and the cans.

(Note: I am not an audiophile.)

I'd recommend them to any one. And really, the price is almost a feature unto itself, as they're pretty replaceable.

I'm looking for something I could exercise with or do yard work. I get my cord caught up all the time and once cut thru it with the hedge trimmers. My buddy at work got some that he likes a lot but they were like 150.

Did you get em? I read about how people were saying they fell out of their ears in the reviews and decided to wait. Probably should just do it for 30. I got my brother the bluebuds. Didn't want to risk it on a gift but I'll try the cheap monoprices for myself. Anyway let me know what you think if you got em.
