Digital camera reviews of V-MODA Bass Freq In-Ear Stereo Headphone (Bling Bling Black)
Digital camera Review: Almost the best $30.00 headset
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first pair of V-moda's. I have owned many pairs of headphones; they typically end in some sort of gruesome death. Thus the quest for the decent $30.00 headphones.
I would give these a 4.5, weighted on their cost, but they are probably a 4 in the class of sub $50.00 headphones. The sound is not really linear, really tuned for contemporary music, not classical. I listened to a bit of old jazz as well and they were decent, but perhaps a little too round in the low end. But it is too much perhaps to expect something truly linear for $30.00.
As the name would imply the headphones have pronounced, but acceptable, non-boomy bass. The way they accomplish this is clever. The headset does not actually go completely into the ear canal as some other models do. As a result, part of the ear becomes a resonant chamber. The long plastic piece where each headset wire comes out is there to keep someone from putting the headset too far in the ear.
So, despite the dumb name, and V-Moda's really silly web site, these are actually a decent pair of earphones. As with most transducers (including speakers), the sound of them will change over a period of time -- a day or two of heavy use should do it. The high end becomes a little less strident.
The headset themselves are made from lightweight, but fairly sturdy plastic. The headset wires are lightweight. They come with 3 different sized earpieces. Be sure to try all three out as these headphones fit differently than many other in-ear headphones.
You should probably be looking at the Sennheiser CX300 as well, which are more well regarded....but I think these are surprisingly good as well -- they have a different set of qualities -- the Bass Freq has very good detail in the midrange, which I wouldn't have expected - lots of little details pop out, including acoustic music. Happy so far.
Digital camera Review: Alright before they broke.

So i had these for about a month, then the left speaker stopped working.. I then just listened to the right speaker but then slowly faded until no sound came out of either speaker... For the month they worked they were good, but I was not rough with these headphones at all and have no idea why they just stopped working.Digital camera Review: Amazing Earbuds!

I recently purchased a white pair of these from Amazon after doing some research into earbuds and the sound is just AMAZING. The bass on them is truly spectacular. My boyfriend owns several pairs of earbuds including Sony and Philips and the bass on those pairs is nowhere near the bass on the V-Moda earbuds. Fit is extremely comfortable and the amount of background noise blocked out is significantly better than that blocked out by the Sony and Philips pairs. Overall, an awesome buy.Digital camera Review: Amazing Quality

I couldn't believe the sound that came from these earbuds. I've heard the best before (ie. Shure, Bose, Etc), and these V-Moda Bass Freq sound better for a 1/4 of the price.
