I have have these for about a week . I love the soft rubber cap -- three size include ; very soft and much more comfortable than foam cap . they do not slide\/pop out of you ear , either . Bass response be respectable for this price . asymmetrical cord design be comfortable . cord separate in the middle -- you can use shorter length for arm or pocket player location ; add extension for belt or backpack use . a small ear buds-only case be include , which keep the bud protect from dust or other unwanted dirt when not in use . also include be a feel drawstr pouch to hold piece you be not use , or all of the part if desire . I be very pleased so far . I have use they for jazz , rock and classical listening . they be not active noise-cancelling type , but in-ear design block out most noise , anyway .
