The cables are certainly better than iBuds. Don't seem to be particularly prone to tangling either. Woot.

I finally have something negative to say about PK3. Thank goodness. Not the most comfortable things in the world for long time listening. There. Hah. Take that, Yuin. Now, back to Denon D2000.


Edit: ARRGH. OK, i have a serious case of novelty-induced insanity. I put my D2000 on, and immediately wanted PK3 back. I know it's partly because the PK3 is more forgiving for this crappy John Mayer recording. But still... This has got to stop. I will be better tomorrow.

The cables are kinda rubbery, but they sure are durable.

Mine developed a short at the plug. Tried to solder a new one from rat shack with no luck, no skill to solder the mega thin wire, especially with my eyes. Any how-to thread on cable repair?

pk3s exist as proof that you should never judge a book buy its cover...or price

Yuin, don't you ever change!

Can't wait to get mine.

What is the big problem people have with the looks? I've only seen pictures online, but they look very ordinary and okay to me.

 

[ignorant]

I guess people expect the design/looks to be extra-ordinary

There's no problem.. people are just surprised that such an ordinary looking bud could produce such amazing SQ.

It's sad when people turn these away because they're "generic looking earbuds from China".. they sure are missing out

oh okay - I thought maybe there was something really weird about them I wasn't seeing from the pictures.

I actually saw a girl who bought the iBuds with remote for $39. It really blows my mind why people are buying such crap. For the same price you could get PK3s (I got mine for cheaper). I let her listen to my PK3s. At first she was listening to a piano play on some low quality youtube video and then she said she couldnt hear the difference between ibuds and pk3s. Then I let her listen to some regular tracks and she finally agreed that the bass is much better (its there while it isnt with the ibuds). I offered them to her for free but she didnt want.

But now she keeps asking me if she could listen to my PK3s. Headphones are like crack. Once you heard a decent headphone you'll keeping coming back for more.

Makes me want my PK3s back again.

I just bought a pair, for the third time (gave away the first, sold the second. Doh!).

 

[supersong115]

I'm glad that they not as well know as Vmoda or Skullcandies

it makes them stand out more without the bling and thus making us smarter consumers for finding them...cuz we did our homework

 

[jonathanjong]

[supersong115]

[average_joe]

Have mine out on loan and not sure when I will be getting them back. Doh to that!
