RCA HP60A Noise-Isolating Earphones with CellPhone Adapter (White)

I bought these earphones on clearance for 5 dollars just to check them out. I have since bought 2 additional pairs so each of my portable devices can have its own set. I am comfortable saying these are the best earphones I have ever purchases. I even spent 45 dollars on a pair of Philips earbuds to go with my mp3 player and they don't hold a candle to these simple little RCA's. If you don't believe me, you should try them for yourself.

Sounds pretty good, not BOSE quality, mind you but it's less than 10 bucks and way more comfortable than the cheap headphones that came with iPods.

For $5, they are nice looking and comfortable, but the sound is just as poor clarity as the headphones you buy for a $1 from the dollar store or off eBay. In other words, if you're using them to have phone conversations, they're fine, but if you want them primarily for listening to music, and you're willing to spend another $10 or so, you can get a huge upgrade in sound quality.
