"I have received my BRAINWAVZ Beta IEM Earphones w/ In-Line Microphone, 3 days ago - so my earphones should not yet been burn-out (or what is this term, I'm no audiophile;). But to be honest i had two small shocks - first, when opening the package - it looked dirty cheap and, after reading about the amazing quality for the money I quickly became very aware, that one should should be a bit skeptical what one reads on the net - the other shock was when i put it in my ears - when my hopes were crushed by the package - the sound _IS_ amazing! These are the best sounding earphones that I ever had (not that i had any extremely expensive ones:). So far extremely happy .The build quality could be better though - the wire looks too thin, the mic looks like it could break any minute, and as i use it in my smart phone - the 45c angled plug is out of place - but, maybe it's just my prejudices - hadn't I knew that this is Chinese company, maybe I wouldn't be so picky:) - Anyway, with all my 'critique' - I will buy them again for my wife
Cheers!"
