Reviewer Comments
The Good: Awesome sound quality for being an ear bud, it can handle heavy bass and a lot of treble. Has great microphone sound quality. Cord length is perfect for using portable media players. It also acts as a noise-canceling ear bud. Good sense of comfort for any audio situation.
The Bad: The extended cord for the right ear bud can be a nuisance. When talking while using them is similar to putting your fingers in your ears. The price.
Conclusion: The Icemat Siberia In:Ear Headset has many things going for it. While having awesome sound quality and comfort it feels very weird when you try talking. With a nice selection amount of features the In:Ear Headset gets its point across. But for the price seem a rather unequipped.
