I had previously bought a pair of Sony MDR-EX71 earphones, as they were supposed to be the bess-knees, but I was *very* disappointed with them. I needed to turn up the volume too much and this would cause distortion, so I decided to move away from Sony, and read a few reviews on Amazon, and these Koss 'phones came highly recommended, and I can only agree. They give excellent external noise reduction, superb bass reproduction, are very comfortable (not like the Sony) and they stay firmly in my ears, even we they get caught in my coat zip. Brilliant, they are probably the best earphones I have ever used.
I would have preferred them not to be white, as I don't have an iPod, but that's the only bad thing I can say about these earphones.

I previously owned the Sony MDR-EX70 - very comfortable but the sibilance was unbearable. No such problems with these superb Spark Plugs - slightly less comfortable but fantastic sound. I doubt you'd want them for classical music but for anything else these are awesome. If you like bass and sound isolation these are definitely worth a try.

I bought these about 4 months ago and they are fabulous. I was looking for something to replace the dreadful things Ipod provide with their quality player. I have found that the Spark Plugs stay in well whatever I am doing and the sound quality is very, very good. I'm sure what I'm doing that the guys who found them uncomfortable aren't but I have had them in for a four hour flight and never found them in any way uncomfortable in fact my only beef is that after about 2 hours you need to refit them. As for the sound qulaity the treble is quite natural and the bass is tight and controlled. The reason I think some people may find the bass a bit heavy is that for most other 'phones you need some bass boost in the equalisation and if your Koss's sound bass heavy turn the boost off. You will be thrilled with the results.

After owning my ipod for two years i went through a number of different types of headphones including apple, sony, philllips plus others, finally i decided to look for some in ear headphones and after a lot of looking i finally decided to get these.
for the price of them i think they are the best you can buy, the bass is rich and deep, however the mids and treble are not spectacular but still better than the apple earbuds.
the sound isolation is impressive too, but then again ive never listened to another pair of isolating ones.
overall a great product!

I recieved my headphones today and they are great. I have liked them so far. they have these foam things that you sqeeze before you put the headphones in your ear, they retract so that the headphones perfectly fit into your ear, like a mould. It blocks out sound that you don't want, the bass is amazing and they come with a spare pair of foamy things. One disavantage is that the cable is weak, or could easily be broken, so be careful.
