About the Sandisk headphones

Those who did not read my article on Sandisk MP3 player on http://zlgr.multiply.com/journal/item/37 and its noise isolating earphones , here is a short description of these wonderful ones.

As you may notice in the photo these ear buds use a smaller then the standard earphones micro-speaker and use a plastic thin foiled ear like external isolator , that makes the earbuds ‘plug’ into the ear.

This makes these buds offer louder audio and increase isolation comparing to the classical earphones

As for example parallel testing , see my next article , using splitter or the 808A the Sandisk shown having same audio level but are quite bassier , presuming the earbud is fully inserted into the ear

The previous day while being in a store for electronics accessories i was looking for some very cheap clones of my Sandisk ears That model was of he 5 euro region with 4 replaceable Unfortunately that model has been sold out . While looking at there I fond these nice looking earphones that due to thier low cost [it was about Eu 8or for me as ol pal and client Eu 7 only >, I bought them immediately






These standard earphones as you may see in the picture have something uncommon : except the sponge they offer five different replaceable color caps These are installed over the bud





And from a closer view the ears have just only the half of their surface drilled so that the sound can pass [very typical design I think]



Testing now: I have tested with my both ears of reference:

With De 929 of Degen Using them with 929 on the 808A player ,I found the following :
1.Audio is little less bassy than 929.But it does not suffer from bass . As the 808A has two ear outputs , I used both L ear buds in my ears and found that some little bass goes into the 929 side .
2. It has slightly higher volume than the 929.Supposing that a monaural or monophonic sound is located on the nose, the audio point in this case goes near to the eye
3.using the analog Bolong radio [see pic of it at the left] , that has high trebled audio, and using an audio splitter connected to both earphones I found that the Philips one offers slightly higher, low trebled audio , I think the tones on 3-5 kHz


With Sandisk ears :
It goes immediately apparent that Sandisk ears have plenty of bass comparing to the 929. Using sagain the Bolong radio with the same audio channel in both ears, most bass is coming from the Sandisk bud while some trebles are located in the side of the Philips ears

I found these earphones after looking in the local market for a close relative who was only asking for isolating earbuds. It was about months after he seen me using my Sandisk's isolating earbuds and was very impressed with them not only for thier nice audio but also for the good isoaltion they had against the classical earbuds

It was one of the two models i found in the market. The other model was of the Eu 5 range so that i immedately rejected them.
The packing of the huyndai one is very stiff , requiring to cut the plastic with a very sharp knife. Once i tested ,it sounds good , though very bassy, even bassier to the Sandisk's isolating buds , and quite bassier than the DE929 as of the previous review

Also as far as it was the first time[s] of using it , it can attenuate external noises at least 15 db comparing to other earbuds. This time the Sandisk buds after more than 200 times of usage does not offer any real diference with Degen's buds in terms of removing external noise!

ON other side audio goes to fair levels . Comparing to degen 's earbuds it is much 'bassier' and little 'treblier' , and offers a little higer audio ,in case buds are entered in full inside ears

Comparing to Sandisk buds seems to cut the middle levels , leaving just 'bass' and 'treble' , again , in case buds are entered in full inside ears

These earphones are part of the Degen DE 1103 radio. But i could get several more from the company.
These are the best earphones i have heard. A little bassy comparing to my protype Koss UR20 but nevertheless have the broader audio comparing to other earphones, making me feeling as a Senhheiser earphone.

The company's price is USD 4 . I have bought pieces two years ago and for the moment two of them have been sent to junk . The one has been suddenly gone out of order on one of its buds . As for the second , one of the buds has been filled with water from one of my ears ...
