Title: As good as much more expensive earbuds
Review: The performance of these headphones is absolutely fantastic for the money. I also have a set of ($100+) Shure E3c's that I use for traveling by plane, and the sound quality of the Sennheiser MX-500's is easily as good as the Shure. I primarily use the Sennheisers as laptop headphones at work. The Shures are designed to block out background noise better, which is why I got them for travel, but at $15 the MX-500 headphones are a screaming deal. Yeah, the cord is a bit short but you can live with it.
Is the review positive or negative?
