Summary: Ok under the right circumstances 2010-01-21
Comment: These headphones are great if you're not in a noisy environment. The sound quality is rich and full but is easily drowned in outside noise.

Summary: The Most Irritating Buds I Have Used 2010-01-20
Comment: Philip's HE591 Surround Sound ear buds are on the list of the worst pairs of headphones I have used. The sound and quality of the headphones are decent, and the case is a nice touch for when bring them on investigations to plug into a recorder and listen to EVPs. However, the trouble begins when wearing the ear buds. After wearing them for a few minutes, even sitting down, the buds began to slip in my ear and fall out, leaving me constantly adjusting them. Twenty minutes later, my ears began to get sore from constantly having to move the ear buds around.
I looked on Amazon.com to read comments left by customers, and many reported the same problem. Other hadn't reported this. The reason why I believe so is that the ear buds are only one size. If it happens to be your ears are the right size for the buds, you won't have an issue. However, if you don't fall into this category, as do my ears, they will fall out.
What I recommend to do is buy another type of ear buds that have different size earpieces. The headphones I have now come with three different pairs of ear buds, so they stay in my ear comfortably. I don't have an issue with Philips. This particular model however, I do. I give this pair of ear buds 2.5 out 5 stars. The sound quality is sufficient for the price, but the comfort of them is a different story.

Summary: Excellent Sound, I've owned six pair, two are functional due to lost parts. 2010-01-18
Comment: These earbuds offer excellent low volume dynamics and sound quality. I keep buying them for their sound quality.
But, the reason I rated them a 3 star instead of the 5 star they deserve, is the fact that the rubber earpieces come off FAR TOO EASILY and they are tranlucent, so on the office carpet they blend in, disappear and are gone forever. I recommend getting a pair of these and using JB weld to glue the rubber to the earpieces so you'll at least get eight months of use out of them before even the JB Weld give out.
So I have six pair of these headphones, only two have their rubber earpieces remaining. The rest sit. If the rubber pieces were at least neon green or yellow you'd be able to see them against the carpet's pattern before housekeeping vacuums them up!

Summary: Great Sound, Unreliable construction. 2008-09-29
Comment: I love these earbuds so much, that I buy them 2 at a time. I work a physically demanding job where I'm bending and squatting and walking and standing, and when I work, I tangle the cord up a lot. After about 3 months I have to get a new pair because of my over use, but they are worth it.
the Virtual Surround Sound is amazing as well. I listen at low volumes and you can hear each instrument receive it's fair share in each song. vocal heavy songs are amazing too, since the vocals sort of float to your ears in a way I can't describe. The higher the volume, the more distorted the songs become though, but I rarely listen at high volumes though.
In the end, I'll try to buy up as many of these as I can, because this is truly the perfect ear bud for me. It's not too bass heavy, and it's great for vocal songs.
