 Moving on to a Second Pair September 10, 2010
Joseph R Furterer
I've owned J-Buds for over a year now. I used them with an older smaller MP3 player for a while, mostly for sleeping. As has been indicated in some other reviews, they are very comfortable but have a tendency to fall out during the night (this isn't too big a deal for me at least, it often isn't every night, and sometimes I don't even wake up until my alarm goes off anyway).
Between sleeping with the J-Buds and throwing them in my pocket before a class or when I meet up with friends, I put a lot of ware and tear on the cord. The first pair I owned lasted nearly a year, close to when the warranty was up. I noticed, going to sleep one night, that I was having trouble with one of the buds losing sound. By the next night, I was having a lot of trouble getting both of the buds to play sound at the same time consistently. By the 3rd night, they were done. If I could get sound at all, it was only through 1 bud.
I contacted customer support and notified them of the issue. I got a very prompt reply, a new pair was sent out to me per the warranty within a few days, and I was a happy camper.
Shortly after I picked up an iPod touch and used my apple headphones. They died very quickly (within 3 months of owning the product) under the exact same wear and tear I put my J-Buds through. I switched back to my J-Buds, and now, about 5-6 months later, I lost sound in one of the earphones.
I debated quickly whether I thought these headphones would be worth buying again, especially knowing that two pairs had died on me. Ultimately, I think the headphones dying is mostly due to how I use them. I tend to ball up the cord to get it to fit into my pocket which puts stress on the wire and - if the headphones are still plugged in - it can put a lot of stress on the joint where the headphones plug in (which is where the problem with my 2nd J-Buds arose). In comparing with the apple headphones that came with my iPod, I'm actually pretty impressed with the J-Buds. In addition to both pairs lasting longer than the apple headphones to begin with, they came with a one year warranty which was very easy to make a claim on and extended the life of the headphones to nearly two years. For $10, knowing that I'll have headphones for at least a year regardless of the stress I put on them is a bargain!
The J-Buds are not the most amazing sound quality out there, but I wouldn't discredited them too much. I think the sound quality is pretty decent, actually, especially for an in ear headphone. It's definitely sound quality above the price range, so it's a great buy in that regard.
I also find that, as advertised, they really do block out background noise. I'm pretty skeptical of headphones that claim to do this, but it's nice to know I can sit with my iPod at half volume and know that I won't even hear other people talking in the room. It makes the music comfortable to listen to while making it easy to block out background noise. For sleeping, this is a huge plus!

Wires cracked after 3 uses September 8, 2010
SuperMom (Columbus, OH)
I was thrilled with these - they fit great, sounded great (although didn't greatly reduce ambient sound) but after having them for only 3 days - one of the cords had 2 cracks in the black plastic through which I could see the silver wire underneath. They still work, but I had to wrap the cords in electrip tape where the rips were and it makes an unpleasant lump. NOT very high quality material, and it is a temporary fix, I will have to replace them very soon.
UPDATE - The company - when contacted, has however promised to send a replacement within 2 business days, reviving my faith in the product. We'll see how it goes.
