Nice sounding, but poor build quality... (Rating: 1 out of 5) These earbuds sound really nice, probably the best sounding pair I have owned.
Hopever, I found them to be quite uncomfortable and hard to fit compared to the humble koss plug or the more expensive Entymotic.
The cable seems tough, but it has a strong PVC smell for the first few months which eventually fades, however it is stiff and prone to cracking.
The build quality is quite poor, the bass driver on my right earpiece broke after 10 months, the cable covering broke around the same time.
Despite the advertised 2 year warranty, I was unable to get a response to my RMA request from the ultimate ears website after two separate attempts over a 1 month period.
And they do not sell spare earbuds for their products either. Cusotmer support leaves a lot to be desired.
Not recommended.
