Polk Audio DB402 and FREE NVX IEWR2 Ear Buds

Happy With Purchase

One-Button controller works with my iPhone6.

Double stack eartip secures headphone in ear comfortably. No problems falling out. However, sweet build up in ear does require adjustment from time to time. But...what earphone doesn't that happen with.

Tired of my jaybird bluetooth headphones dropping audio in the middle of my run.

I bought 2 of these for the same price of my Jaybirds. So now my wife and I both get to enjoy music while we workout.

Great buy

This product is a goodbye excellent sound. The only problem that I see with this product is that if you have the mic on your bearskin up under your shirt as you sweat you would not be able to make a call with the microphone. People would not be able to hear you but you can hear them because I guess sweat got into the microphone.

Great speaker

10 out of 10 great sound out of these little speaker and tweeter are very crisp and detail...

Sound good

These speakers sound pretty good on my Electra glide. They are not as loud as I would like, but they are louder than I expected. Pretty good sound for only 4".

Polk Audio DB 402

Bought these speakers to replace Merrill speakers that kept shorting out they didn't last a year. I was blown away by the sound quality of these over the Merrill and these were about 20 dollars cheaper, they are now a year old and sound as good as when I bought them.
I am now a Polk audio fan!

Great buy

Great pair of earphones for a nice price. Just sucks that it doesn't have volume button.

Truly Water Resistant!

These ear bud's are awesome. I put them in a bucket of water while playing music. Took them out and I think they sound even better now. And the sound quality for 20 dollar is pretty damn good.

Good product

Would recommend great for the kids to use on there iPads

Good Fit, but Low Value

I purchased these to use almost exclusively as a gaming headset. I realize that these are not ideal for that. But typical use would include phone calls and listening to music, which requires good mic quality and great speaker quality. They work, but not as well as I had expected for the cost.

The microphone works adequately, but has trouble capturing my voice at times. The in-line mute switch is essential, and works as intended. There are no in-line volume controls however, which is a huge setback. Depending on what device you are using these with, the lack of volume control may or may not be a deal breaker.

The earpieces fit much better than I expected, and are more comfortable than most earbuds I have worn. The wrap-around wire is also comfortable, and secures the earpiece in place nicely. As for audio, it comes in clearly enough, but has an obscene amount of white noise. The ambient static is excessive enough that I would not recommend using these headphones for prolonged periods of time. You may not notice it at first, but your ears will be ringing after you remove them.

As for the wires, the most vital joints to hardware are extremely frail. There are typical reinforcements in place, but they too are thin and weak. I do not expect these to last long before losing a good connection. I baby mine, keeping them fairly static and wrapped up with extra tape for support, but typical use with a mobile device will kill these quick.

All in all, I would not recommend these headphones. They are decent quality, but they are low value for their cost. The lack of volume control, weak connections, and (worst of all) white noise are considerably problematic.
