NuForce Icon HD (Blue) + NVX EX10S

Good product

Very good sound, well built and I like all the different size ear pieces that come with it.

The way I go through earbuds, I figured this was meant to be.

I may have been wrong ? These are very well made, I have been using them for over a month daily, with out any trouble. The only thing that could use some improvement, would be bass, but that goes for most, unless you spend some money. They are so comfortable, and you never have to put in a earbud that fell out, never. I LIKE THEM !!!

best earphones

I have had a lot of good earphones in my past but these are absolutely the best pair I've ever owned it has such clarity on the highs and you can feel the lows. I liked them so much I bought another pair just to have in the house.

Wow

These blew me away. I got them for free in a deal with some AT-M50's, and these are much better. The quality is supreme.

Don't stay in well

Not wanting to use the harder component that wraps around your ear, they do not stay seated well even with all the various rubber pieces.

Manufacturer Response:
They are made to wrap around your ear. If you use them as direct input with cord hanging down, it is recommended you switch the left and right sides as the design would be more of a natural fit due the curves purposely being made to fit an around the ear style. That being said, you would also reverse the sound stage in that type of a fit.

Just because it's going doesn't mean that it's bad!

Before I got this product, I have never heard of this brand. Granted that I didn't need to risk anything because the pair came in free worth the purchase of another circumaural headphone I bought, but the quality of this little one matches the quality of the other more famous brands out there like shure and nose. The silver coated finish on the cord is also nice in blocking too much entanglement happening. It takes little getting used to for the East hook thing but over you get it, it will be awesome while traveling because these buds will not really fall off.

Best headphones i've ever used.

good lord. Props to both you Sonic Electronix and NVX. these headphones are top notch. i was expecting mid grade sound out of the ES10's but i plugged these babies in and listened to RUN DMT - Curse of The Mummy (plug because it's an excellent bass song for systems) and when the bass finally hit, it gave me goosebumps. FROM HEADPHONES. these things are amazing. it wasn't too loud, or to harsh. but the smooth clarity of my music is honestly amazing. i haven't even plugged in the FiiO yet and i'm blown away.

These things handle the long, strong bass hits of dubstep, trance, and trap flawlessly. it handles the choppy aggressiveness of metal, and it makes rock and indie sound so much more dimensional (clarity of reverb, and balance of instruments). I even threw some Gustav Mahler (classical music) at them at it handles beautifully. these play the range of music beautifully, without any flaws.

That's not to say that all music sounds good on them :) poorly mastered and recorded music shines through as well. clipping and over compression sounds like nails on a chalkboard in these, which is a good thing! i mainly listen to metal, and dubstep, but i have everything from the 50's to Trap in my library. these headphones have made it so i can explore my library all over again :) THANK YOU!

The best earbuds under $100

Where do I begin with these? They have so many features for $100. The only feature they do not have that I wish they had is a mic + play/pause button. Here is my breakdown:
Sound:
I must say I never heard of NVX and was a bit worried about the sound quality before buying, but their over ear had some good reviews so I figured why not. I was incredibly impressed with the sound quality these have. They are so much better than my Klipsch S4i it's not even funny. The response is really balanced and sound staging is excellent. The bass also feels incredibly natural and not overbearing like some others and overall I am just really pleased. I have listened to alternative/rock (Counting Crows, Matchbox 20) and hip hop (Hopsin, Lecrae, Lupe Fiasco) and everything sounded the way it does on my studio monitors. I was left feeling like nothing was missing and that was really important to me in terms of whether I wanted to keep or return... These are keepers!
Cable:
Quite possibly this is the sturdiest cable I have ever had on earbuds, including much more expensive Shure and Westone. I contacted NVX to find out what they used and it is a pure silver cable. It never gets tangled, is durable as hell, and you can just tell the quality compared to standard plastic or even twisted/flat designs out there. On top of the toughness, it also looks great as it is silver.
Eartips:
The sheer number of eartips included is almost intimidating, but I got over it and got the exact pair that fit me. I really like how there are silicon tips and then also silicon with foam tips included. I went for medium silicon w/ foam and they are extremely comfortable. I also like the comfortmax flexible foam tips when I am traveling in public (airplane, bus, etc) as they offer a bit more noise isolation and I am even tempted to go buy a set of comply tips to compare.
Adjustable Nozzle Sound Port:
This is a really cool feature that is extremely undersold in my opinion. It is my favorite feature on these buds. Maybe it is because my ears are not normal or average, but because of the adjustable port I can fit these better than anything else I have previously owned.
Memory wire and earhooks:
The memory wire and earhooks are pretty cool and I have seen them on other sets, but the memory wire is softer than my Westone and more flexible. I am not a huge fan of the earhooks, but maybe for some people they will like those better. I left them in the box unused. For me, the memory wire works great at the gym or when I go running and really helps when it comes to plopping them out and then leaving them resting on my ears so I can talk with friends at the gym without having to have it hanging from my chest.
Cons:
I like complyfoam tips as I stated above so that would have been great to get those. I have an Android phone so I am not huge on the Apple 3 button mic thing, but either would have been better than not having that option at all. Even though I am fan of over the ear designs, I still find simple plug and play to be a little easier.
Overall:
I am pleased with the sound they produce and all the neat things that came with them.

Excellent sound quality; were several times their price!

The user has to take a lot of care to use the tips that provide a completes seal in the ear cavity. When that happens then the bass quality snaps into focus and the entire soundfield taks on a much more spacious pleasing quality. If a good ear seal is not achieved then the sound can sound Peaky and harsh. A good ear seal is easy to achieve because the unit comes with 15 different tips therefore achieving a good seal is just a matter of finding the right tip for the users ear. The soundfield expands outside the boundaries of your head and avoid the typical boxed in earphone or headphone sound. These should be on any serious listeners short list of earphones for consideration.

Good headphones

I haven't been using them that much, but so far they sound good. They are durable and have a lot of features.
