I have have both Vibe Vmoda headphone -lrb- the metal one , not the plastic one -rrb- and a pair of dennon black in ear headphone . although I have the Dennon 's for a couple of year , which could have cause some sound quality to drop , there be not a noticeable difference between these headphone and the dennon 's -lrb- I paid about $ 60 for the dennon 's on amazon . -rrb- I would definitely say these be very comparable to many $ 40 to $ 80 in-ear on the market . they come with all the accessory you would expect from a quality pair of headphone , with a case and insert . I be a stickler for sound , but could not shell out another $ 60 for some nice one and think I would have to settle for these , but have actually be suprize instead . I have consider buy another pair so I would have they on reserve ... one note , if you plan to use they while move quickly -lrb- like on a motorcycle or scooter -rrb- , they do have bad wind noise . I suppose I should not wear they in this situation anyway ... definitely worth the $ 20 !
