Pros: Comes with a few extras and a really nice carrying case. Removable wire.
Cons: High price tag
Overall: I loved testing the CrossFades from V-Moda, they are the perfect blend of style and sound. There are very few headphones on the market that look and sound as good as these. It comes with some nice extras including the hard case and two sets of wires which can be removed when storing the headphones away. I think the only that might scare some people away with be the price tag. The average person is probably not going to spend over $200 for headphones, but if you have the money I’d recommend them.
You can purchase the CrossFade headphones from V-Moda for $249.99.

Pros: Very solid audio, braided 1.2 meter cord, priced right, very comfortable, small
Cons: Hard to find in retail.
Overall: The Wicked little buds sport 5.8 mm drivers that produce solid audio. With the 1.2 meter braided cord you won’t have to worry about it not reaching into your pocket. Best place to find them is on Amazon and at the time of this writing were $18.65. Click here to be brought to the Wicked Audio website and click here to be brought to the Amazon purchase page.

Pros: Sweat-proof, Teflon in the cord for durability, comfortable fit while exercising, cord only comes down from one side, inline volume control.
Cons: The volume control is poorly placed where it is not long enough to clip on your pocket nor on you shirt collar.
Overall: The Sennheiser/Adidas PMX680 are a superior headphone especially for the athlete. They are awesomely comfortable and stay put while you are running. With true highs and low lows the sound quality is above par for a exercise headphone although most just want decent sound and comfort while seating. The PNX680 can be purchased from a plethora of retailers but I found the best deal for $49 from Amazon. You can learn more about these and all the offerings from Sennheiser by visiting their website.

Cons: Cheap build quality, high price for quality
Overall: These are a good pair of headphones with nice sound quality, Light weight, and nice looking designs. However the build quality could be better and the price could be a bit lower. Overall I like these headphones cause of their nice fit, look and sound quality. These are definitely worth a look.

Pros: Great style, control line talk, several other options, great sound with deep bass, crisp mids and clear treble
Cons: The plastic feels a little weak
Overall: For the price, these can’t be beat. Inline mic for taking calls is great. Skull Candy hit the mark with great sound and styling. They do have some bleed through with sound but overall a great DJ style headphone.

Pros: Comes with a few nice extras and tons of spare ear tips.
Cons: No more nice braided cord that I’ve come to expect from V-Moda.
Overall: This is a great set of earphones with built-in mic for the iPhone. The sound quality is great and well-rounded for all types of music. Like all of V-Moda’s products, they not only sound good, but they look great.
