The people at JayBird take many days (on a good day) to respond to e-mail and RMA requests, and don't communicate very well. 2) Product quality. The wiring and connection are horrible. My first pair of tiger eyes started to give me static after 2 or 3 uses. On top of that, the microphone stopped working, and I had to constantly "wiggle" the connector around to make it work. After receiving my replacement pair of Tiger Eyes, I had the exact same problem! I use them once, and start to get static on the line, and when I'm on a phone call, the other party says I sound horrible. After TWO different pairs of TE1's, and 2 months of frustration, I give up. (for comparison, I'm using a cheap pair of Skullcandy, and the Apple supplied earbuds with mic with my iPhone, and am having no issues. Definitely an issue with the Tiger Eyes) I am now on my second pair of Tiger Eyes, and can confidently say this purchase was a mistake for the following reasons:

I am looking for in-ear headphones that sound great while I run (training for the marathon). Sounds like these are the ones to get. Are there any other sweat proof high end sounding in ear headphones that you would recommend/have done reviews on? thank you. Thanks for the excellent review on the Jaybird Tiger eyes headphones.
