I didn't see an appreciation thread here. So this thread is for everyone out there enjoying their new Apple EarPods!
So as my screen name suggests, I like my iPhone to be my one stop shop for music. The old Apple Earbuds never fit for me (or my wife) and would always fall out, rendering them unusable. Therefore, I was excited when I got on Head-Fi and decided to buy a pair of Meelec M6p's. It was fun to listen to music on my iPhone.
Well now we have the iPhone 5. And I love the EarPods!! My wife and I absolutely love the EarPods so far because the EarPods fit and stay in our ears! Not only do they fit but they sound great as well. Comfort and sound are better than the M6.
Quick comparison- the EarPods have better/more natural bass, mids, and highs compared to my Meelec M6 earphones. I would guess these EarPods have a larger diameter driver because the main difference in the sound is the EarPods have a more natural attack and note decay across the frequency spectrum. Even on compressed audio, like Pandora, all the pianos and guitars sound natural and vibrant. I love it!! Bass goes much deeper and has more physical impact. Also, it seems the music app or something is different on the iPhone 5 - comparatively I am hearing the music more clearly at lower volumes, and it all sounds so good!!
Please post appreciation along with all your listening impressions!
