Quality Headphones with Amazing Sound
As a Musician and Audiophile, headphones are something that I am extremely picky about. Recently, I was looking for a pair of high quality earbuds, and came across the Symphonized NRG Wood in-era headphones. At first, I thought that the whole wooden thing was just a quirk being used as a selling point that would have no affect on playback. However, seeing how good the reviews were, and that they were fairly reasonably priced, I ordered a pair. And wow am I happy with them! Here are some important points that I experienced with this product.Packaging and Contents: I was pretty impressed with the packaging. It was simple, yet effective and did a good job of show casing the product. You could tell that Symphonized really cared about this product and the buyer. What I was most surprised about was the contents of the package. The headphones came with a nice carrying back that seemed to be made of good quality material. It also came with two full set of earbud replacements, each with three sizes. One was black and one was gray. I thought it was pretty cool that you could choose the color you wanted, as well as having a backup.Build Quality: Very well made. They look just like the pictures. All materials seemed to be high quality. The nylon cord is awesome! Helps prevent tangling and is much more sturdy than a plastic cord. A lot of in-ear headphones have problems with the earbuds falling off and getting lost. This is something that is all but impossible with these headphones. The earbuds are fitted on the headphones extremely well. Even trying to remove them myself, I had issues taking them off. I would much rather have it be a little more difficult to change the earbuds (something that you rarely have to do) than being afraid of losing them throughout the day.Comfort and fit: I have really weird shaped ears, so I usually avoid in-ear headphones since they either fall out constantly or don't make a good seal. However, these headphones seemed to fit nicely and produce a good seal. The earbuds themselves were very comfortable. I was able to wear them for multiple hours at a time without any real discomfort, which was a very pleasant surprise.Sound Quality: This is where these headphones are set apart from the rest. As someone who listens to almost every single type of music, I often have a hard time finding a pair of headphones that can fit everything. These are about as good as it gets. The wood actually makes a pretty big difference. As soon as I started listening to tracks, I was amazed. The low tones are very heavy and full. Listening to bass heavy music was incredible. If the bass in a song is super heavy, you can even feel the wood vibrating (sounds weird I know, but it was super cool). The best part is even though the bass was so rich and pronounced, it in no way overpowered the high tones. This is huge for me. I hate it when bass heavy headphones just drown out the treble in the track, so all the hear is booming. The high tones were very bright and crisp and were able to rise above the bass, even on super heavy bass songs. The result is an almost perfect playback mixture. That being said, on certain songs, the mid range tones can feel a little drowned out. I rarely had this issue, but it is worth a mention. For a majority of the tracks I used to test these headphones, the playback was absolutely golden.Other Thoughts: I already mentioned that the cord was really well made,but I didn't mention the length. The cord is a very good length, longer than most, but not too long that it gets in the way. I could put my phone anywhere on my desk and still have the headphones fit very nicely. The noise isolation was very good. When you get a good seal, these almost feel like total noise canceling headphones. One thing to note is that these headphones stick out pretty far from your ears. If you are looking to wear headphones under a hat or helmet etc, these probably won't work for you. Besides that, I had no real trouble with it.Overall: Pros: -Amazing sound quality, very deep bass and crisp treble -Good comfort and fit, even for my weird ears -Very well made with quality materials -Great value for price Cons: -Mid range playback could be better on certain tracks -Stick out fairly far from ears, making it hard to wear them under headgearAll in all, these headphones are incredible. They very much exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a quality pair of headphones, you can stop your search now.

Fine for the price
I bought these because I lost (ok, as it turned out washed and dried) my Klipsch earbuds, which I was fairly pleased with. Based on the reviews, they sounded like an exceptional value. My opinion is that they are decent for the price, but don't really compete with my more expensive pair in terms of sound quality.I will say that the bass is impressive, but like I read from some other reviewers, somewhat overpowers the mids, at least for rock. Probably this could be corrected with a decent equalizer which I have not taken the time to explore, but by default I would agree with the balance being a little off. Mids and highs are ok, but not great.The other thing that I was concerned about with these after reading the reviews was the noise interference caused by the nylon cords. This is indeed an issue, as when those cords rub on clothing or bump against your body while walking around being active, it does transmit the sound up and into the earphones, and overpowers the sound. These are not the earphones for you if you're planning to have them in while putting around doing chores, etc. I'll also say thanks for pointing this out reviewers...I had never noticed this before but now I also notice it on my other earphones that have a very light rubber cord, although it is much less noticeable.Regarding fit, I do sometimes have problems with one ear, and have gone through quite a few pair, some which fit and some which don't. These fall into the hard to fit category for me. I've tried all different sizes of fittings with these, and none of them stayed in very well for me. Probably due to the somewhat heavier, larger wood piece that produces the nice bass.Bottom line, they are ok for the price. Would I pay $15 for them again? Probably.

Muffled at times and bass-heavy but worth a listen and great build for the price!
The great reviews are misleading. These look great and the cord is a nice change from the typical rubber. However, they sound horrible. Granted, these aren't expensive but I wasn't expecting the sound of $100 sennheisers or Shures. The "retail" price of $99 is also misleading as they don't appear to sell these anywhere else - so, it's not a bargain, just a marketing tool. The sound is terribly muffled as bass overwhelms any high end. The lack of treble reduces any clarity leaving only midrange and bass. When the buds are pulled back to sit just outside the ear, they sound much better. Muddy sound.Spend another few bucks for a pair of Sonys or spend another $50+ for an entry level sennheiser or shure.***UPDATE*** As much as I still feel these phones lack detail and have a very bass-centric sound, they do work nicely with certain kinds of music. I gave a listen to some electronic and certain alternative rock albums and enjoyed the sound. In some ways, they take getting used to. I also can't help but give these phones major kudos for going through a wash and dry cycle and coming out without issue. I accidentally left them in gym shorts and they got the full cleaning - and yet, they look and sound the same. For the money, these are a reliable pair of $30 headphones and some because they clearly have a certain sound, some listeners may fall in love with them.

AMAZING
These earphones are amazing, Once you put on the earphones you can hear NOTHING but the music and the bass on these earphone will bring any basshead to tears. The build quality is durable and nice to touch. It comes with a nice carrying pouch and a clip to keep it in position if you work out and there are many options for bud size and colour. The wood and chrome accents have a very boujee feel to it and the mic is very clear. 5/5 for me I would recommend These to any of youre headphone needs

Best headphones i've owned
I've been using these headphones daily for over a month now for music, both portably and on my macbook, phone conversations (when plugged into my mobile) and talking to friends over PS4 group chat - in all cases it's worked great. The headphones look cool - particularly the faux wood-grain design - they come with a clip for the microphone which comes in handy, also the headphones come with a little drawstring sack for when you want to store them in your bag without getting them tangled up in stuff. Worth the money, especially considering the 1 year warranty included.

Nice looking and good sound
Love them - they get much less tangled than regular iPhone headsets, the lead is longer (good for me when cycling) and the sound quality is great.

Better than I thought they would be, I thought they were a gimmick but sound from them is great.

extremely bad quality earphones
earphones have stopped working within 45days! product is expensive and I assumed would be of good quality as I buy earphones quite a lot. but I am very disappointed that the earphones just stopped working all of a sudden with 1.5 months of purchase. Not good at all. Please do not buy from this vendor
