An Invitation To Ear Heaven

December 24, 2008 ·  

If you wake up tomorrow and find some cash in your stocking, I have a suggestion for a purchase.

A few months ago, Apple introduced a new pair of In-Ear Headphones. These headphones finally started shipping earlier this month and I’ve been using my pair for a couple weeks.

These headphones sound really, really good. They are significantly better than the headphones that come with your iPod/iPhone both in comfort and sound. They also stay in the ear much better than the old Apple In-Ear Headphones.

As I do with all headphones/stereos/car audio systems, I played the live version of “Do You Feel Like We Do” from Peter Frampton nice and loud. (mp3 link) These headphones passed with flying colors. The lows were solid and the highs were crystal clear.

And to make things better, they are less expensive than most of the high end headphones that are available.

For those interested, they are $79 and can be bought at an Apple store or on the Apple site.

Thanks for stopping by. To keep up with the Stucki family, feel free to subscribe to my RSS feed or signup for updates by email.

    Brian,
    Thanks. As luck would have it I just got my wife some new “standar” iPhone earbuds and didn’t know about these new ones. Just confirmed with her that she hadn’t opened her new earbuds yet, so we can buy the ones and return these. Thanks for the heads up and review. BTW – love the family and spiritual orientation of your site. Keep up the good work.
