Product Review

Stand out from the crowd with a set of earphones that look as classy as they sound. The CX 880i is a winner with life like sound quality and a custom fit that feels like they were made for your ears. These ear-canal, noise isolating earphones use a dynamic speaker and a specially tuned transducer that reproduces a transparent, clear audible image.

They provide clear sound across the range of highs and lows and seem to have a good sound stage.

Sound Isolation
These seem to provide slightly more isolation than...Read more

Hello-

Thank you for your feedback. For exercise use, we recommend the CX 680i, as it was designed for working out and will minimize microphonics (because it was in fact designed for sports), and is sweat proof with a stay-put fit.
