Review: Once in a while, a product I purchase far exceeds my expectations. It doesn't happen often, but when it does it's something I really, truly enjoy. This is one of those products.

I'm an audiophile. I have a rather extensive collection of...

Wonderful portable headphones.

Date of Review:  Jul 26, 2003
The Bottom Line: Top-quality sound for anyone but total bass-heads. Durable construction, highly adjustable. Shop carefully, and buy them!
Review: I have been using my Bang and Olufsen A8 headphones for several months now, so I thought I would revisit the reviews in here and add some thoughts of my own.

First of all, these cost $160 retail in the USA, but I ordered them from eBay for...

Bang & Olufsen A8 Headphones
All too often, earphones must sacrifice comfort for the sake of sound quality and vice versa. Bang & Olufsen has struck the perfect balance with earphones that embody both - designed to fit the individual ear and deliver unsurpassed sound quality. Contours and curves: With conventional earphones much of the sound never makes it into the ear. To stop this kind of leakage, we have developed earphones that can be adjusted to fit the contours and curves of the individual ear. Design: The Earphones are crafted from anodised aluminum and hard rubber giving them both flexibility and robust durability. www.bang-olufsen.c om Note: Products sold through this Web site which do not bear the Apple Brand name are serviced and supported exclusively by their manufacturers in accordance with terms and conditions packaged with the products.
