Very Nice.......2007-12-05
I just recently decided to spend the extra money and get around the ear headphones. I have been let down every time with every earbud that I could find. None would ever fit in my ear and the ones I managed to squeeze in would start to hurt after a few minutes. This set of headphones has fantastic sound quality. I can hear light background sounds that I never heard before. Another big quality they have is comfort. They are so soft and light, I forget I am wearing them. I recommend these to anyone who doesnt mind spending $140.
Great Headphones!.......2007-11-27
These are great, padding is nice and soft, headband is sturdy and very comfortable. They are as close to being perfect to an over-theear headphone can be except for one thing, my ears end up getting hot after a while. Granted, that is just me not everyone will experience this. Cord is nice and long too......
Absolutely Great Sound Reproduction. Great Value!!.......2007-11-24
I have owned many different headphones over the years, but nothing beats this set of Bose. Besides being lightweight and a perfect fit over the ears, the reproduction of highs and lows are unparalleled with anything else on the market. And as a side benefit, even though this item wasn't advertised as one which deadens outside sound, it definitely does. Even at this price, this is a great value. I recommend it to anyone in the market.
Really good item.......2007-09-26
These headphones are light and comfortable. Sound reproduction is outstanding. You will hear instruments and supporting vocals you did not know were on your CD or iPod. The around-the-ear design filters out all but the loudest background noise enhancing your listening enjoyment. But, you have probably heard all that. Try these out at a local Best Buy or Target. You will not be disappointed. Cost? You get what you pay for.
Really lives up to the hype.......2007-08-16
You'll hear things in your music that you didn't even know were there before. The only down side is that modern compression of music can distort it, and the headphones are so good that you hear it. That's the music's problem though, not the headphones. Just great! Worth every penny.

Built for comfort but not durability.......2007-12-02
I'm on my third (and last) pair of the Tri-Port headphones. The sound is good and they are very comfortable to wear for extended periods. The problem is that they are fragile and cheaply made.
My first two pair failed because the jack is a poorly made molded plastic item that can't stand even moderately heavy use. The wires inside the jack become disconnected and sound from one or both ears is lost. Bose replaced the first two pair (still under warranty) but the current pair has failed in the same way.
Think twice about buying these headphones. If you ever remove and reinsert the jack on a regular basis, I guarantee that it will eventually fail.
Great lightweight cans.......2007-10-28
I bought these about a year ago to replace a pair of ten year old Sonys that I had worn into retirement.
I'm not an audiophile. I don't spend tons of money on stereo systems making sure that everything is just perfect. I am concerned about being a member of a generation with the potential to go deaf at an early age, and I wanted a pair of headphones that would prevent sound leakage and hopefully encourage me to turn the sound down.
I like them. It does take a bit to get used to a new pair of headphones, and I found these made the treble a bit hissy. I don't turn my bass up. I have noticed instruments and sound effects more clearly in various songs that I hadn't before, which I found really interesting.
These are lightweight, but the cushioning is good and the rubber doesn't come off on the back of my ears like the others did. They aren't preventative of outside sound, but definitely keep the sound inside the cans.
My only complaint is that the cord seems like it could be more substantial for such an expensive piece of equipment. It isn't flimsy, but it's surprising that they didn't make these with a telephone cord like connection.
great sound, could be better fit.......2007-07-25
of course it has the best sound. and it muffles other sounds nicely.
BUT it pushes my earrings into my head because it fits so tightly (and I have a small head). I have to tuck my small hoops in or I ache...
worth the price, yes if you are picky about sound quality. If you do not know good quality, save money
Great Headphones, good dealer........2007-07-05
The headphones have a great range of frequencies, sound great for everything I use them for (piano keyboard, ipod, video games, general computer use) You won't be disappointed with the quality at all.
Also, my package arrived promptly and the headphones were NIB and wedged between two air-pillow packaging things. Much appreciated considering the price of this product.
If you want great sound...........2007-06-25
I bought these headphones when I heard them at the Apple Store when I bought my iPod. The quality of the sound just blew me away. Great range of sound. The bass is just sweet. What more can I say? You want to truly enjoy that iPod this is how to do it.
I am usually quite fussy about sound quality. I would highly recommend these headphones for your listening pleasure.

Responsive micro-fiber diaphragms reproduce the fine sonic details that make your music come alive. The non-resonant compound metal earcups have small exterior openings that further increase efficiency and improve overall sound quality.
Amazon.com Product Description
Denon's AH-D2000 High-Performance Headphones offer two signature sound-enhancing technologies. First is the latest microfiber diaphragm technology. Microfiber's smaller size results in a denser diaphragmatic material which increases transmission rates for better sound and higher detail, affording maximum presence of acoustic sounds with low distortion. In addition, a special acoustic optimizer adjusts sound pressure balance on both sides of the diaphragm to deliver dynamic bass sound. The AH-D2000 includes a lightweight magnesium frame for maximum comfort during extended listening sessions, as well as aluminum connector covers, gold-plated connectors, and high-purity OFC cables.

Good Sound and Comfort From Earhugger's Wrap Arounds.......2007-01-14
For the past two weeks or so I've been testing out the Philips SHS3200 clip earbuds. The verdict was: return. They were very, very uncomfortable, even if the sound was great it doesn't matter if you can't actually use the headphones. Which means I had to revert ot my Sony pair for a couple of days.
I found these on big discount for only...three dollars. I needed this pair pretty desperately, or at least it would suffice until I found something I'd want at a major retailer. The only other time I've bought from Earhugger would be the EH710 over the head headphones which I also rated 4 stars, but someone begged me for those, so I gave them away. They sounded nice and were comfortable and I also remember getting them on discount.
For these, I wasn't expecting much, just something that sounds OK and fits well. Which actually IS what you get, except the sound is a bit better than ok. These are the clip earbuds, much like the popular Sony h.ear. They are usual earbuds but have a clip that goes around your ear for more comfort and a more stable fit. That's really all you get, but for three dollars how on earth can you expect extras? It also has a long five foot cord so it won't be awkward walking with these with your iPod or so on in your pocket. I've also noticed that the hook is detachable, so if you just want the buds then you can have that.
For sound quality, these don't sound amazing but sound good, especially because for the price I thought these were gonna flat out suck but they're actually pretty darn good. They don't have fantastic deep bass, but they do have a full bass for what they have, making them sound full and rich. Mids sounded good, not overpowering nor are the mids lacking, maybe a bit much in the 200-500k range, but it's not at all bad. These don't have an amazingly clear sound if that's what you're looking for, these did lack in treble a little bit, but again for the price I can't expect stellar sound. I put these on a little music test, and they sounded good on my iPod and CD player but pretty average on iTunes unless I tweaked the equalizer a bit. On my stereo system they sounded fine but best when playing a CD. They sounded good on most of my music collection, and sounded really good on hip-hop, R&B, dance, spoken word, and light rock. When I turned on hard rock or hard hitting rap it sounded kinda tinny, but were still listenable. I turned on the bass boost on iTunes and my other protable audio sources and handled all and sounded fine, but at higher volumes (more than 80% volume) things started to disort or sound tinny. Overall, not amazing sound, pretty good bass and average elsewhere.
These are some darn comfortable headphones to me. When I put them on I did get a good fit automatically but for those who've never tried these types of earbuds before might feel slight discomfort the first week of use or at least it'll feel weird. Just know that if they're uncomfortable from the box you should give them at least two weeks before returning.
Something else you should know is that these come with a lifetime warranty! Well, of course there's a catch. You have to send in five dollars for shipping. Relly there's not much worth of the warranty since I found them for three dollars, but if you paid more than five dollars it's probably a good idea to keep the packaging and receipt around.
As I said, I only paid three dollars for these at Big Lots, and chances are that's the best price around. For the price you are going to get a comfortable set of clip-buds that'll sound decent and last at least a couple of months, maybe more if you're gentle or using these at home. You'll probably find these from three to eight dollars, paying more for that is a rip-off since you can probably find something better or something with extra bells and whistles like volume control or waterproof features.
Overall, not a bad set of headphones. They don't have the same sound as headphones that are more than ten dollars but are comfortable and sound good enough for the price. Good sound, comfortable, and inexpensive, check them out! 4 stars.
And in response to earlier review, these don't have a volume control.
Um, bad?.......2006-12-21
Poor quality little buds. I just bought them for the rubber "earhugger" piece to be used with other phones.
inline volume control is flakey.......2005-08-29
The inline volume control does not work, moving the volume control slider can change the volume to go up, down, then one ear, then the other, etc. Very flakey. I purchased another one thinking it was just a problem with the one I bought, and sure enough the same problem. Not worth the grief. I had one of these for a year and it worked well and when I lost it I tried to buy the same thing, but even though the part number was the same as the old one, it was a different unit (different length wires, volume control in different spot). Unfortunately they must be using a new supplier.
Ear and Phone together as ONE..............2001-10-28
If your looking for headphones to listen to your media, without the hassle of a wraparound attachment or without gravity constantly taking charge from your auditory canal. Then this it. Sure you do not get astonishingly great bass, but you can move freely without a concern, knowing the things will stay on. Honestly you can almost completely forget your wearing'em.
Later all.......
Good quality for the price.......2001-02-07
I was hesitant to purchase the Ear Huggers after reading other buyers' reviews, but I definately have to say that I am satisfied. I wear glasses and the Ear Huggers work fine with them, and stay in place really well. The sound quality isn't excellant but is no worse than any other portable headphones. They're definately a good deal for the price.

Breaks easily.......2006-08-06
Only a few days after I bought it, one side of the headphone broke down. No sound would come out of it, and when it does, the sound would crackle every now and then that I just had to take it off.
It's happened to me twice with this product. At first, I thought it was just sheer luck that I got the defective product. Unfortunately, I couldn't return it because it was already opened. But when I purchased another one, it happened again.
Don't buy these. They're low quality and will break down easily. Save your money and buy a better quality headphone.
Bad Sound.......2001-08-29
I bought these headphones and while they fit reasonably comfortably the sound is awful. The mid range is way too high while the bass and treble (especially the bass) are cut out. I'd avoid buying them unless you use them for listening to spoken word of some kind.
Great fit but poor sound quality.......2001-08-28
I bought these to go jogging with a minidisc player. The fit is terrific: they stayed on my head with no trouble during a two-hour run, and my ears felt no chafing, pinching or any other discomfort at any time. Unfortunately, the sound quality is poor. Unlike the full sound of the headphones that came with my minidisc player, these headphones have a tinny, trebly sound that makes a number of instruments sound shrill (including saxophone, trumpets, and strings) and can make a rich, gutsy voice sound throaty. It's sort of like listening to AM radio. The sound quality is not awful, but it's not good enough for me. I wish I had spent a little more for better sound.
mediocre sound quality and a battery eater.......2001-04-12
They are weak in the high frequency range.
They require a lot of power to drive them. I have to change the batteries on my Rio500 MP3 player every 6 hours instead of the 13 hours advertised. I know it's the headphones because I have to turn my MP3 player's volume almost to the max when using them, but need only 25% of the volume for other headphones.
The volume control is very handy though.
Fit, yes. Durability, no........2001-01-11
I've owned three pairs so I think I'm qualified to comment. The fact that I've owned that many tells you two things.
First, the plus side. As a runner I've found no better product for staying in place as I bounce through miles and miles of radio play ... I put them on and they stay on without hassle. No, they don't rest snugly and deep in your ear, but they don't need to. Besides, I've found that snug earbud designs on other units are prone to slipping out and off anyway. The sound quality is just fine for my undiscriminating listening.
On the minus side, these don't last long. I've averaged 4-12 months each time for the three I've owned. Granted, I run with them 6 days a week in all kinds of weather. First one ear goes dead, and a month or two later both sides are kaput. The volume slide-control tends to get rusty and sticks, so forget that feature (it's full-on or full-off eventually). Death invariable comes with unconcious tug on cord, fraying a too-weak connection at the slide control. On a more minor note, the foam slip covers for the earbuds pop off sometimes, but these easily slip back on.
Bottom line: can't beat the stay-put-ness of the ear hug design ... but if durability is important, find a different product.
