Sennheiser PMX 80 Sport II Headphones for iPhone and iPod
perfect fit every time
Written by PP from Griswold
Dec 2, 2008
the pmx80 was an impulse holiday buy for myself. they do not go all the way in your ears which is awesome for me as i like a snug fit, but not in my ear canal. this allows me to hear the road noises and traffic when I run, daily. the cable is thin yet incredibly strong. i wrapped it around a 25 lb dumbell to test it and it held up. the sound is full and dynamic. i can hear a lot of details in my music, like the body "shift" at the end of "A Day In The Life" from Sgt peppers. this is inaudible on many high end speakers costing thousands. they sort of FLOAT around your head and they are actually pretty low profile. i give it 5 stars for comfort, strength/cable, sound quality and value (2 year warranty) …More

Just what I was looking for!
Written by BT from Anaheim
Dec 19, 2008
Needed a good ear bud / headphone for my time at the gym and for general use. My ipod earbuds were pulling out due to bumping ou jerking on the wire. Also I put the ear buds in a non-typical fashion, with the speaker grill forward (90 degrees to normal for an ipod earbud), not pointing into my ear. My ears have been through a lot. These behind the neck headphones are comfortable and secure while made to push the sound forward, they sound wonderful [I hear more of the music than before, equal to a "B" word set of earbuds I have], and they are supposed to be moisture proof. I have owned these only a short time so I hope they last - seem well constructed. …More

Sennheiser PMX 80 Sport II Headphones for iPhone and iPod
Great sound and durability but awkward band design.
Written by PV from Biscayne Park
Oct 21, 2009
For a sport headphone these give really great sound. They're also really durable. I used them almost daily for two years without any sound or electrical problems. They only broke after I sat on them a dozen times and managed to crack one of the arms. With reasonable use and less abuse, they could have lasted several more years. The only problem was that these stick out of your ears really far. It's not a problem for running or normal gym use, but If you try to wear them with a winter hat, they'll push the hat away from your ears enough for wind to get in. …More

Large Neck Band and Earphones
Written by KB
Oct 20, 2009
The sound quality is great but for most women the neck band might fit too big (the company should make an adjustable neck band) and the earphones are quite large so it doesn't fit perfectly in place. The sound quality is good but I'm not sure if it was built for unisex usage. I have to wear the neck band above my ponytail to keep it in place during jogging. …More

Great Sport Headphones for Working Out
Written by JB from Raleigh
Oct 17, 2009
These are great headphones for working out and outdoor activity. I use these daily for running and have also used them while snow skiing, weightlifting, lawnmowing, and hiking.
If you are looking for excellent sound quality, then go explore Bose and Shure Earphones. The Sennheiser PMX80 headphones are intended for sports and activity. The sound is good/solid but not excellent, probably due to making them water resistant. It is not quite noise cancelling, but just enough to get you focused on your workout.
I used the original bright green PMX70 regularly for 5 years before accidently washing them in a load of laundry. Oops! Unfortunately, they didn't fare too well immersed in water for 30 minutes.
I just recently upgraded to the orange sibling. Compared with the 70 series, this is built slightly better. The plastic used is durable and better balanced, fit is improved, sound quality is enhanced, and the added shirt clip is helpful.
Pro - good sound for a rugged sports headphone
Pro - durable, lightweight, comfortable, stays in place, fits securely
Pro - good construction, one piece wraps around back of head, single long cord with shirt clip
Pro - sweat, rain, and water resistant and can be washed under tap water
Con - Can become uncomfortable after a long period of time
Con - Excessive sweat can sometimes hinder sound
Con - Does not compare in sound quality to Bose and Shure Earphones …More5 of 5 people found this useful

Does it work with the Ishuffle?
- Asked by RD from LONDON
- Oct 5, 2009
Best Answer
This product does not feature controls for the brand new iPod shuffles (3rd gen). It will however work if you purchase a separate adapter that does have the controls. I know Belkin sells a 3rd Gen adapter that works really well, and you can find it right here in the apple online store.
If you have a 2nd gen iPod shuffle model and prior (or any other iPod model) these headphones will work fine. …More- Answered by CC from DAVIE
