How are they supposed to be worn? I have a sport pair that you are supposed to twist in so they don't pop out ... is that what you do here?

BEST ANSWER: These earbuds are marked left (L) and right (R). Look closely on the outside of the piece that connects the wire to the earpiece. Then be sure the cable is at the top and pointing forward. Also be aware that your ear holes are not necessarily the same size and you may need different sized tips on each side.

These are not sport ear plugs, they just fit into your ear like normal plugs, but have a bigger driver so they have better bass. We use for our worship team.

Yup. The “wire” actually is near the top of the ear. It allows it to be tucked over the ear and down the back if you want.

They do not twist in. I use them like regular buds but have the cord go up over my ear from front to back.

In that pic of the bundled wire it looks like there's an in-line mic, but the tip is not right for that; so, is there, or are pics of different sets mixed?

BEST ANSWER: That piece in the middle is actually the splitter for the L & R sides, there is no mic on these headphones.

An alternative and upgrade, IMO, would be comply's T-400 tips. I found them more capable of providing a proper seal.

Can I use these in places where disturbing others is not appropriate or is prohibited? That is, do they leak sound out to the surrounding space, or do others hear nothing?

will these be able to isolate from screaming children?
A shopper
on Jun 5, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Although these have no active noise canceling, I find that the buds make a very tight seal in my ears that really cut out outside sound. For instance, I cannot hear my wife talk to me at all, and have to pull one out every time in order to hear her. I’ll bet you’d be able to hear a screaming child, but the volume would be drastically reduced.

If you try all the eat tips to get a good fit they can totally isolate from screaming kids. But, if none of the ear tips fit, you can always use duct tape.

too hard to fit in your ears
plus they won't stay in. I've tried different size rubber pieces to no avail. They won't work under my motorcycle helmet either - they become dislodged when putting the helmet on

Works great except I frequently work at my desk in back of my computer and the cord is still a bit short to do this.

Great for the price
Price: 5*
Sound: 4*
Comfort: 3*
The big external bit means that, if the cord gets snagged on something, the whole thing comes smoothly out of my ear instead of being painfully yanked out, which is a big plus

Pretty great for $5
I really only care about my buds lasting since I'm not very picky about audio quality that much and would rather see the stuff I buy actually last.
These ones did pretty good on that regard. Lasted 9 months, but I'm pretty sure they only stopped working because I was a bit careless and caused damage/fatigue at the joint where the cable meets the audio jack, so the ones I had failed earlier today.
Only caveats I would pay attention to:
? If you don't already, wear this over your ear instead of having the cable go straight down. They're much more comfortable this way, plus they don't fall out as easily.
? The ones I got specifically weren't very bass heavy and I had to set up equalizer settings on my computer and my phone to make it not sound very treble-y, and the sound balance was off (the left side was weak), but neither of those are that big of an issue to deal with. Based on the other reviews I saw at the time, I think it's safe to assume that I was just the one unlucky guy who got the outlier.
If you're looking for low-cost earbuds that'll just do the job for you, these are a decent choice.

The Best
I've owned several pairs of these, and I'm hard on them! On average they last a year of daily use, through my rough handling and at least a couple cycles in the wash. They sound better than earbuds 5x the price, and they're cheap enough to use as stocking stuffers or give away to obnoxious people on the train.
The only downside is my cat likes to chew the braided cord.

Great All Around
These well made earphones, have great sound, a generous length of cord. They have a subdued style that might prevent the attention of someone with sticky hands. The price is good if you do lose them, you can get a replacement.
