Overall, these earphones are considered to offer full rich balanced sound and great value for their price.
Durability

Highlights
Quality
Great sound really gives you high quality sound.
I have been very impressed with the sound quality.
They lasted about 2 years until one of the buds quit working.
My biggest, or should i say only, beef with them is that the wires have a rubberized feel to them, and they stick to each other... Read More
Price
00 so the lower price makes them a great buy.
Absolutely this is a great product for a meager price of $20.
Avoid the mistake that i made ($50 for stand-alone purchase)and buy these phones with the 8gb x-fi zen player for $69.
Under $100, i have not found anything even in the ballpark.
Shipping
Got them quickly with free supersaver shipping since i ordered another item.
Competitiveness
The treble range is especially good compared to other comparable headphones.
Sounds better than many $50 range phones (and notorious apple stock ones).
I *suppose* it's theoretically possible to spend lots more dollars for maybe something that sounds a 'bit' better .
So i went on amazon and searched creative earphones and saw that these were identical to the ones that came with the player.

Both these headphones are still working flawlessly until this review date in 2013 the only effect the time and the heavy use had on both these headphones was last year when the small piece of rubber below the silver piece in the headphone came loose but has not affected the sound quality or the cord in any wayi dont care what the audiophiles say about this but i compared them to many other headphones including the beats inear phones

Good sound but wire feels fragile

Be careful with the volume because the new 34sealed ear34 buds are making heavy bass and can hurt your eardrums over extended periods with higher volumes

After a few minutes at lower volumes your ears may even adjust to a higher sensitivity you will hear just fine

He was quite happy with their performance until after six weeks one side lost sound

I contacted creative because they offer a one year warranty and provided them with scans they requested of the product box and all amazon paperwork about the order
