The latest pair of earphones we have checked out are something different. The looks and style and the boldness of them. Given the chunky size they are not heavy but look different and stand out from the norm which is what I like, However they lack features being plug-ins but still deliver decent enough sound being wired which is what many people still want today despite the headphone jack being omitted from many smartphones today.
1.QUAD DRIVERS – Include double balanced armatures and double dynamic drivers.
2.AUDIOPHILE HEADPHONES – Better balance of 3 frequencies,crisp high note and deep low notes,bring you a new kind of auditory sense.
3.ERGONOMIC FIT – streamlined aluminum sound chamber with perfected ergonomics ensures exceptional comfort and noise isolation.
4.COMPATIBLE MODEL – The cable use 3.5MM 0.78mm 2 pin Detachable Cable.100% fits Android,also fits iPhone 6/6S Samsung S6 S5 Note 4 Nexus and other Smart Phones.
These are not your typical designed headphones which breaks from the industry standard and really stand out but when it comes to sound this is what people want to know.. Overall they sound good but not mindblowing either and fit relatively comfortable in the ear. The one thing I found was the buds where on the thin side but you can swap these out with other ones if you have them lying around,
The packaging is well presented too which for me is a good start on any product no matter who the manufacturer is. Their design is similar to older models such as the QT2 which are an older model which you can still buy today. For sound buffs or audiophiles you will not jump on these if you had a choice in front of you however most average people would not trained to tell the difference between these and other headphones around the pricepoint but there is better out there.
Bass is pretty decent and most genres play well at all volumes but they lack a real thump. Noise isolation is also an issue depending on the environment and this is due to how they sit in your ears and the thin buds provided but everyone’s ears are different. Overall most people would be happy with a random purchase and not looking for real true sound reproduction.
One final thing is the cable provided I don’t like it all and it seems flimsy and this can be replaced and it is easily tangled but comes that way when removed from box and will take a bit to get the kinks unraveled. Would I recommend them?? I would if you are not fussy about design which I like in these and if you are not expecting high quality sound. As I have tried and tested over 100 pairs of such I would personally pass on them as a soul purchase but for the average Joe they will do the job and not bad for the price. However I do like the look of them.

This article is made with C12 shielding material, invented by the company Schlegel Electronic Materials. The material is the fruit of more than 20 years of research and development. The C12 provides the best 97.4dB attenuation and protection over a range of frequencies from between 100KHZ and 2GHZ (This is the range for RFID technology). An anti RFID texture protects you from “network sniffers” who try to recuperate the data on your credit/bank cards when you are in a public place. This texture is the most efficient method of countering electronic theft and protecting your confidential bank and personal information.

Virgin Media will be in Gorey on Thursday 25th October to celebrate Ireland’s Internet Day and the designation of Gorey as the 2018 Digital Town by the Irish Domain Name Registry (IEDR).
The ‘Digital Town’ initiative highlights the benefits and possibilities of the internet and celebrates the digital achievements of a local town. Gorey was chosen for cultivating a truly digital environment in the town, and for its ongoing successes in fully embracing digital for its residents and for local businesses.
During the day, there will be discussions and presentations on the benefits of high speed broadband and digitisation – in the Digital Dome being established in the town centre by IEDR and Gorey Chamber to mark Gorey’s success. Business guru and broadcaster Bobby Kerr will MC the proceedings which will also include many local business success stories.
Through our national Project Lightning network investment programme, Virgin Media has extended its ultrafast network to circa 20,000 premises in Gorey, Enniscorthy, New Ross and Wexford in the past year, bringing Ireland’s fastest broadband and the best connected entertainment to Gorey. Virgin Media also introduced Free Public Wi-Fi for citizens in the town, contributing strongly to Gorey’s capability and success as Ireland’s 2018 Digital Town.
Towns across Ireland including Gorey are currently benefiting from our ongoing network expansion programme which involves connecting local communities to Ireland’s fastest broadband provider. Over the past two years, Virgin Media has added 100,000 new homes and businesses to its network map in Ireland, and is on target to reach the 1 million milestone over the next 2 years.
