V-MODAForza Metallo In-Ear Headphones with 3-Button Remote and Microphone - Samsung and Android Devices, Rose Gold

These are the first in-ear's I've had for a while. I always found them uncomfortable, but these are so comfy I forget they are there. I use these for my daily train commute and leave my heavy phones at home.Sound quality is superb, not bass monsters thank goodness, but beautifully clear sound, not too warm an not too bright at the treble end. I've used these for everything from Opera, orchestral, jazz, rock, solo piano and everything sounds so musical. I listened to Puccini's Turandot all the way through and at the end tried to take them off as if I had my round the ear AKG'S on they were still so comfortable. Definitely worth a listen if you are looking for some new IEM's.

3D printed custom caps are missing in the box.:(

The main problem with in-ear headphones is that they don’t last very long compared with standard headphones. Over the last decade, I have bought many sets of earphones in this price bracket made by Etymotic, Sennheiser and Ultimate Ears only to find that with use, the wiring goes at the junction with the jackplug, causing one and then both channels to go.Eventually I became fed up and bought a pair of Bowers and Wilkins P7 headphones, which are built like a tank and have a user-replaceable cord plus a spare in the box. However, despite being described as “portable” they are still best suited to use at home, being far too bulky and heavy (290 g) to carry to and from work on a daily basis.Hence my search for a high quality, lightweight and above all durable pair of earphones. The V-moda Forza Metallo weigh in at a mere 14 g.V-moda supply their Italian designed earphones in such beautiful packaging, you expect to see an unboxing video on Youtube. They use a “DiamondBack” reinforced cable which they state is 20x stronger than usual cable and have a lot of protection where the cable meets the jackplug. They also warn about the dangers of wrapping the cord around portable devices when the cord is still attached as this puts unnecessary pressure on the plug-cord connection. Instead, they recommend carrying the earphones in the neatly designed carry pouch.The next challenge with in-ear earphones is finding a good fit for one’s aural anatomy as without an air-tight seal, the bass disappears. V moda supply 4 sizes of “Bliss 3.0” silicone fittings, from XS to L. I tried all four but could only get a semblance of a fit with the largest fittings. Even then, I felt as if I was missing out on the bass response I expected from these High Resolution audio earphones. I then substituted Comply Isolation 400 foam tips. These restored the bass to a good level whilst retaining the mid and treble response: they have totally transformed the sound and restored my listening pleasure. In addition, they also improved the noise isolation Comply T-400 Isolation Earphone Tips - (Large) Black Test set upApple Lossless Audio files in iTunes 12.5.5.5, using Audirvana Plus 2.6.6 DAC 24/44.1 kHzFrom a MacBook Pro Into an Arcam rPAC DAC converter and headphone amplifier.I listened to a wide range of both pop and classical music using the earphones and am pleased to report that the earphones really enhanced my listening enjoyment. The sound was very detailed, allowing me to follow individual instruments and separate notes across a natural sound stage. They are also pleasant to listen to for long periods of time.Overall, I think these in-ear headphones are very well made and produce excellent sound quality. I now pack them in my bag with my laptop and enjoy listening to my favourite music when at work, played to almost a high a standard as when listening with my P7s. The only caveat with all earphones is that a tight fit is an essential part of the way that these earphones work and you may need to experiment to find something that works well for you, even given the many different sizes of earpieces included in the box.

For the Price of £119.00 as of writing this review I must say these headphones are very disappointing. Although the design is appealing and the 'aircraft' metal build feels sturdy, the sound quality is just 'meh' for lack of a better word. I have tried a range of products from B&O including their H3 and H3 ANC, Beats, Sennheiser and Jaybird X2 and X3s and all of which surpass the likes of the Forza Metallo. Another issue apart from the mediocre audio quality is the terrible, TERRIBLE jack. It is, for some reason, designed in a way that makes it rub against your pocket if you wear particularly deep or skinny jeans/pants thus just after 3 weeks of moderate use, the jack was bent. This caused the audio to constantly drop in and out with became infuriating. It goes without saying I have returned this product as it simply doesn't live up to it's asking price. If you are looking for budget earbuds that are decent both in terms of quality and price, the Sennheiser Momentum buds are an excellent choice.PROS:- Sleek, appealing design- Non Tangle cable which is AMAZING- Range of customizable earbuds which surprised me. They will most likely have a fit for you.- Small, comfortable form factorCONS- PRICE!- Mediocre Sound. Not enough bass/treble nor anything else for that matter.- Baffling jack design which seems to have been designed to fail

Bought these for £110 pounds and sent them back 2 days later (thankfully Amazon gave me a full refund).After doing lots of research on earphones I came across these and instinctively bought them due to there nice angular aesthetic and inclusion of ear hooks on wired earphones.They arrived and I put them on and, instantly thought they sounded tinny (I tried the other ear tips and there was no difference).I also found that trying to get the right angle when putting them in my ears difficult and they would often fall out.When I was wearing them while walking, I found out that the headphone jack was flimsy and my music would cut out every few steps. I instantly decided to return them in favor of using the standard apple ear pods (that are better in every way IMO) for a few days while I wait for the Jaybird x3s

I bought these headphones with the promise for a "durable" product. It turned out to be as durable as any other headphones that stop working after less than a year with the difference of being much more expenssive. I hope someone will fix it or send me a new one...It is important to note that at the first few months they worked just great.
