    Very good products

    I love the sound and fit of these, they are very, very good. The bass is very good, deep and tight. The mids are spot on, sound like my B&W floor standing speakers to be honest. The highs are crisp, accurate, and not overly harsh like many others.

    The mic works very well, is pretty clear and the control aspects of this work simply and easily. Like I said, the fit is snug, keeps outside sound out and the music in. I can play these very loudly without disturbing people around me.

    The sound is phenomenal. The bass is very rich, the mids are pure, and the highs are crisp but not harsh. The fit is very good, fitting snuggly in the ear with no ear fatigue or pain. It also holds the sound in, and outside noise out. The Apple controls are awesome too, makes answering calls, pausing music on the plane to hear announcements, etc. all extremely easy.

    Snug fit, keeps outside noise out, the sound is beautifully clear. I also like the bass response. These stay in snug so the bass doesn't diminish. Very happy with these

    Worthless

    I bought these after losing both pair of earbuds I had, and after my SkullCandy earbuds broke. I just got a raise, so I thought I'd hook myself up and snag a pair of these H/K earbuds and enjoy sound quality like I'd never before heard.

    Enter: disappointment.

    I've had them and used them daily for near a month, and every single time I slip them on I'm let down. The highs are piercing and painful, even at a reasonable volume with bass boost on. The bass is near nonexistent, sounding cheap when it does rear it's ugly head. You can forget turning up anything past low level- it'll be painful. Rick Ross lost his "wough," Phoenix lost their mellow bump both thanks to these. John Coltrane did sound good, minus the piercing horn.

    Plus, after a week the metal cover near the mating end of the cord broke off (appears it was glued on) and makes it a pain to now remove the phones from my phone.

    I wouldn't recommend these to anyone.

    Just bought a $29 pair of Apple ear pods and am now enjoying much better sound at 1/3 the price.

    Good design and sound clarity. I like the multiple in-ear "fitting" pads -- after trying a couple, I found the perfect fit.

    I like these a lot, good value for the money. They sound like they could cost a lot more but lucky for me they don't! Highly recommended

    I've never had headphones this nice. I have only ever had apple headphones and these are 100 times better! I got them to travel to NC with and they tuned out the noise of the car nice to where I could only hear my music. Kind of pricey but you are getting quality headphones.

    I've listened to some headphones that cost way more and these sound better despite being cheaper. I work out a lot and they fit good, stay in, and the extra punch with the bass is nice too, really gives me that extra edge. I highly recommend these and it's worth spending the extra $40 or so to get better headphones. They also look like they will last a while too

    These things fit real snugly in my ears and they have some good bass which is important for me as I use them when I run on the treadmill. Most don't fit that snug so you have to keep pushing them back in to get any bass but these are spot on fine

    Comfortable fit. Surprisingly great noise insulation as the harman kardon website states. I think that for the price they are an awesome pair of headphones. They come in a very nice box and the cable and remote are made from high quality material and you can tell by the feel. I definitely recommend this.

    My boss got these for me as a gift as a thank you and I love these! What a great gift! I'm incredibly pleased to have something that's seemingly so high-end. I just wanted to share my experience with them even though I didn't buy them myself but wow I'm impressed. Comfortable and great sound. The Apple controls are a nice touch too

    This is my first purchase of ear phones other than the ones that come with the iPhone and iPad. I have to say that i am really pleased with the proudct. The ear phone snug into your ears and you dont feel the slight pain after using them for longer periods of time. The noise isolation is realy good. I listned to music on the train today to work and believe me, the isolation was really good. The higs, mids and lows were realy audible and i really enjoyed the music wearing them. They are stylish in design and really well built. For anyone looking for some good ear phones at a decent price, this really fits the need.

    For the money, these are AWESOME! They sound like they'd cost way more than they do. The guy at the store told me to get these, spending more than I wanted (I wanted to spend $50), and I'm glad I did! Love the iPhone controls too

    Excellent Set of Earbuds

    The best set of earbuds I have used. Crystal clear sound, light-weight design and extremely comfortable to wear all day. In the past I have used earbuds from B&O, Bose, JBL and Bowers Wilkins all of which were far more expensive and in no way could compete with the sounds quality of the Harmon Kardon models. Great purchase for a small amount of money.

    Straight up, these are great - well rounded balanced sound, non-fatiguing.
    Only drawback are the cables which persistently find a way to constantly tangle themselves.
