If you like crispier highs get Creative EP-630, if you like more bass, get Creative EP-830. Also if you are active while using your headphones order some puddy for molded ear plugs (Google "DIY Custom-Molded In-Ear Headphones" for exact link on the puddy and instructions). Enjoy.

In a word, Yes. In three, very much yes. On a budget? I'd suggest the Sennheiser CX-400S. Money not such an object? Go for the Shur E2c. That is of course, if you're wanting to stick with earbuds and Amazon as a buying source.On a side note, if you listen to a lot of MP3s, don't.. "acquire" any that are below 256KBs. Anything lower is.. ew.

The bass is nothing great, but sufficient enough. Your source also makes a difference, plugged into my android listening to Pandora, meh. Plugged into my iPod nano,...whoa yea!

They are cheaper than Bose, but Bose are better on IPhone. You can make a decision .

It's pretty good. Very clear on both my iPod n iPhone on all sound settings including bass. N it fits the ear better than other in-ear headphones. I've been using these since 2009. I can't go for any other head phones. Just my opinion

JBuds J2 sound ok. To me it fills like your missing part of the sound with them. The bass isnt full and cant hear the hi hat on the drums. Im gonna try the V-MODA next to find some better earbuds

Not at all if you want to enjoy what's on your ipod more. They help make music more enjoyable to me by allowing me to hear things I don't hear through normal speakers.

I checked the reviews on wirecutter.com and they said this version was rated best buy for sound quality. They sound great to me on my ipod.

Yeah, the jbuds do sound a bir muffled to me. Well compared to my other in ear headphones. Just not very clear. I dont know its hard to tell. Its not super muffled like covering the speaker, but it is lacking in i "crispness" u could say

Honestly, the earphones from Apple are way better. I would rate in the five area as they do not suck but they don't add much to your listening experience either. To me, I wanted the cover and every thing else was gravy because of the awesome price I got.

Thanks, Billy, from me, too!I'm ready to replace my 1st gen Touch. (I'm slow.) I actually have $10 Sony earphones, and I use them with all my audio devices.

Marie, You should get excellent sound thru the ipod. I continually listen thru mine. I can't answer pertaining to your laptop. A great feature of these headphones is they are so comfortable you don't realize you are wearing them. Hope this helps you choose.

Are you listening to digital or analog recording? I have only listened to digital music with these, and they have had good response. Not having ever used say a $300 pair of headphones; I don't know how they would compare. They do beat the small earbuds by far; and are not too bad to sit for extended times on the head. You will have to sit up though, these are not that comfortable reclined or lying down.

I have little ears so the ipod earbuds never fit in my ears. To add to this, my ear canals are different sizes. I have had good luck with the Skullcandy brand (approx $22). They come with 3 different ear pieces so you can customize your fit. They are also pretty noise-canceling, but not to the point where you can't hear what's going on around you (if you are biking or running). Also, some versions come with a volume control on the cord, so you don't have to fiddle around with the dial.

They definitely do sound better. It's like a richer and fuller sound. The difference in the lower frequencies can be heard most significantly. For sound quality, I recommend highly.

They are better/louder than the iPhone earbuds in my opinion but not by much. I use these for running because the iPhone buds just fall out.

Yes I have and still do. I use earbuds but it's still not all that great. There are other issues too, do you have a problem with clarity? The touch screen is not very "touchy"...very frustrating. Battery also gets extremely hot Ihave to turn it off after a while. I would not buy one again.

I also have hearing issues. I have Oticon behind the ear aids. There is an option Oticon sells where a optional segment is attached to the aid. The output plug would need an adapter to fit the aids from the standard headphone jack. The highest volume from my iPod just wasn't enough for me so I bought this amp. It does not make a huge difference, just barely enough. I am using earbuds not aid induced. I believe the aids sound like "manufactured" sound to me. Which, is a whole lot better than hearing nothing :). I would suggest getting a stronger amp and good earbuds. Good earbuds like the Sennheiser $40.00 ones I mean, not the $250.00 ones. Over ear may be a good option as well depending on how you will be listening. Good luck.
