I was frustrated with my learning curve on how to best insert the ear buds. It took me several days and was a frustrating experience. I almost sent them back. But now I've mastered it and it is not a problem. I am glad I stuck with it. The sound is incredible. I had been using Klipsch and most recently Etyomic that were about $125. The 425s give me about twice as much music, a much more expansive sound and great soundstage or presence. Over the years in auditioning stereo electronics and speakers(anybody remember Vandersteen?) and now headphones, my benchmark recording is Steve Winwood's Back in the High Life Again, especially the drum intro, and more recently added Jack White's Lazarretto. I hear sounds on the 425s that I did not hear on the others. The overall listening experience was significantly improved. I did not audition other earbuds in this price range, these were recommended by a knowledgeable friend. I am very pleased with the purchase.Read full review

Blocks out noise, even my tractor and weed eater. I wear these for hours while cutting grass. Excellent sound block, comfortable, I am hard on these but they are built well and comfortable.

I’ve tried 4 different kinds of ear buds. These have the best noise isolation, sound quality and comfort for singing live on stage with a live band!

Sound quality is excellent but they are a little difficult to place in ear until you get used to them.

The IEMs are just like brand new ones. They offer great build quality and fit my ears perfectly. Little BASS but I don't care. Anyway, they are the best IEMs I have met so far.
