very tinny sound, and dishonest website reviews,

This review is from: ifrogz EarPollution Plugz Silver/Black Noise Isolating Earbuds (Accessory)
I bought these plugs as a backup to the original buds that came with my XM satellite radio. In summary, they sounded very tinny with absolutely NO BASS. But they were only $[...], so I guess you get what you pay for. But what really gets me angry is that I logged on to the www.ifrogz.com website to check the reviews from customers, and they are all very high, 5 star reviews, with no negatives. So I posted a 2 star negative review of my own, and after a week of waiting, it never appeared! So as a test, I posted a 5 star review with a glowing recommendation. And guess what; it showed up on there. And my negative one still has never appeared. That's just plain dishonesty. I refuse to have any sort of dealings with a company that has no integrity. All of my Amazon reviews have always appeared. I should have checked here first.

Decent sound, high comfort level, inexpensive -- a bit more than what you pay for, so what's not to like?,

I picked these up as a more comfortable alternative to the original earphones that came with my iPod nano. I also use them when I'm listening to anything or watching a movie at my computer, and as an external headphone device to check the sound input on my Canon VIXIA HFS10 Camcorder while I'm filming.
They work quite well for me for all those purposes - while they don't quite surround the ear and eliminate all external sound, they do fill up the ear and do a pretty good job of letting me ignore extraneous noises. I don't want a total immersion experience, since I'd like to hear the phone and be at least somewhat aware of what's going on around me, and these earphones give me...Read more

I bought these iFROGZ PLUGZ at a retail store because they were on sale for a very low price. I had never heard about them or read a review about them before. I was going to use them only for airline travel if they were any good at all. Well, that was before I tried them out for a couple of days. Now they are my favorite pair and I am going to buy another pair today as a backup.
These things defy all logic - they are tiny compared to my other 4 sets (different brands) so I didn't expect anything out of the ordinary with them, least of all the clean thumping bass that these things put out. You can turn the volume way up listening to dance music (or anything with deep
bass) and the rest of the music won't hurt your ears. I bought another brand of earphones last month for 8X the price and the bass is not as good as these. I have been looking for this deep base - without the screaming high notes that my other earphones produce.
Also the handles on the sides are...Read more
