My Re-Review after 5 Weeks Usage, Is Zero Stars an Option?,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Beats by Dr. Dre Tour Blk In-Ear Headphone from Monster (Electronics)
Ok, I'm not one to bash any item really, I might over pay for a few things in Life... BUT... Let me tell you about these Headphones!!!
1st Off - Here's what Nice, Tangle free Design is EXCELLENT, should be the standard for all Headphones here on out.
Ok, thats it, thats all I got on the Pro's of these headphones!!
The CON'S Other than tangle free, EVERYTHING!!! 1st pair left earpiece went out, 2nd pair has exposed wiring everywhere, that little volume Control, the red cable comes out and you can see the wires.. On the earpiece, where it is black then right before the red cable there is a little silver piece.. well, that is plastic and poorly made plastic and it comes right off. If I were to seriously price these on construction quality, I promise I am not Lying, not more than 10 bucks! Im not being ridiculous either here, these are absolutely horrible when it comes to construction.. Apparently these have not gone through ANY Quality Assurance...Read more

Admittedly, what drew me first to this set of earphones was the design. Since I've owned many other high quality earbuds before with similar looks (Shure E4C, Bose, Apple, Senns.), I was looking for something different to go along with my new Zune HD. At first, I was a little skeptical because of some so-so reviews on the net. But because I could get these by just cashing in miles (18,000) from United Airlines at their online store, I decided to go for it.
After using these for about 3 weeks now, I can say that I am very happy with them.
First the positives: Nice build quality.
The material and fit/finish looks top notch. From just the look, one will get a sense that these are quality products. The flat cable is indeed tangle-resistance. During use, I either wound the cable around my Zune or just shove the whole thing in my pocket. After which, I could just shake it a few times, and the cable would be unwound. Could never do the same with my other...Read more

Great Sound!!,

I've used several in-ear headphones that have either died within 6 mos or didn't give me the sound that I was looking for. I cant give an audiophile type of review because it's not that deep for me. These headphones provide extremely deep bass. Some may feel they are overpriced, but paying that price is a choice.
I was looking for headphones that would primarily be used with my cellphone (Blackberry Tour) and iPod Touch. I did have the Beats Solo and although they provided great sound, they just weren't the type of sets to have on while driving. The control talk mic does all it's designed to do.
The bass is very deep and sound isolation- well lets just say, I don't hear a thing once these puppies are cranked up!! I'm also impressed that the cord is flat; something I havent seen on any other headset. It would take a LOT of work for the cord to ever become tangled.
