My favorite part of the FR of these is its emphasis on the sweet spot where kick drums are usually heard, so it's ideal for listening to music (for me electronic, etc.) while running, treadmill, etc. I think the cord is a good length, but keep in mind that the cord is detachable and any cord with two 1/8" male ends will work with it.

Please tell me are these cans bassy enough? What type of music is meant to be played in these ones?
How do you see them fit in gym activities? Won't cord be long enough or are there any other points I should take a look at?

-Yes.
-All types, but EDM especially (V-MODA was founded by a DJ).
-The CVO of V-MODA goes jogging in his.
-It comes with two cords if you order direct from V-MODA. SpeakEasy cable is 52 inches long (normal pack-in). Audio only is 69 inches long (freebie).

Hate to be a grammer police, but CEO val kolton.

I agree it works for all types of music, but i dunno if i would say especially for electronic. Id say pop music more so, the m100 would be more suited for electronic id say.

I never got the freebie audio cable. whats the cable like??? I want one!! Lol i was gonna get an audio cable

No. It's CVO = Chief Visionary Officer.
 
And the free audio was automatically added to my order when I bought the XS. It didn't show up on my invoice, but it did show up on my friend's invoice.

Nothing showed up in my invoice... Still haven't received them though but if it isn't included I'll be really curious as to why some got it and some didn't. I placed the order the day they were released.

Actually, as CEO, Val has granted himself the title of "Chief Visionary Officer" -- so SpiderNhan was correct, grammatically and factually.
 
Also, it's spelled "grammar," officer.

 
 
 
 
EDIT: Beaten to it by SpiderNhan himself.

Haha touche gentlemen lol . But im still wondering wherea my audio cable!! I ordered it 10 mins since xs was annouced!! I heard others have it as well!! Waited a whole 6 days paid priority shipping too ($40)!!!

Email them. My first M-100 shipped without the V-Cork. They're pretty responsive about stuff like that. Include a picture of your invoice.

Got my XS in yesterday. Initial thought was dang these are tiny. Every one says that but when you hold them you'll understand. They sound great, maybe even amazing, and IMHO have plenty of bass, but I doubt I'll be keeping them. If on-ear is your thing then you'll love them. I listened to them for about an hour and went right back to my m-100. To me they just don't have that great fit that the m-100 have (which is to be expected from an on-ear I suppose). If you are stuck between buying the XS or m-100 to me it's very simple, get the m-100. The XS seems to be priced correctly, but the m-100 could easily be sold at $400.

I would love to try them out... Anyone knows if they are open in some stores ? (like the M100 at Brookstone)

Well i did take advantage of the extra shield. I got gold. What should i say??

" i heard other owners on headfi say they got an extra audio cable. But wheres mine?

is it odd for me to say a plain audio cable sounds better than with the speakeasy cable?

Where do you live? Some people have seen them at Best Buy (Magnolia). There are a couple places you try them in NYC.

You could say that. You can see my purple audio only cable in my unboxing. It came inside the plastic bag the XS box was packed in.
