Product Description
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. The speaker unit itself can be moved up or down or side to side until the most comfortable and effective position is found. This ensures that they sit comfortably and firmly regardless of whether you're jogging or just relaxing.

Finally! A pair of earphones that stay put and sound wonderful!
By Texas Girl
I have been searching for MONTHS to find a pair of headphones that wouldn't fall off my ears during exercise. The few pairs that I have found that did stay put, would just sound awful and make my music sound as if it were playing inside a tin can. Although the price tag on this pair was a bit high for my liking, after adding up the prices of all the other headphones I have tried over the past six months, these are still a bargain by comparison.They have a really unique adjustment that allows the user to manipulate the fit behind the ears. Although this takes a few seconds longer than adjusting a traditional pair of headphones, the big difference is that once these are in place, they won't budge!Also, I can't say enough about the quality of the sound in these headphones! Since I am a vocalist, I can be a bit snobby when it comes to sound and these really exceeded my expectations. Finally it is a joy to listen to my music with headphones!The only caution I have for people considering this purchase is to know who you are buying from. A friend of mine claimed to have purchased this same pair on Ebay and realized later they were fakes and not near the quality of mine. If you aren't paying around $100 for these, then there is a very big chance that they are not really Bang & Olufsen. Although B&O is really proud of their headphones, the quality of the product proves once again that you get what you pay for!!

By C. Kosturos
These earphones fit so securely and so comfortably. That fact alone makes them the best earphones for day to day life. When I run the earphones never come off UNLIKE EVERY OTHER SET OF EARPHONES. On top of that, the sound is incredible! Bang and Olufsen sound quality in a tiny package. They are pricey, but with a three year warranty and the best fit and the best sound, these are the best of the best!

Excellent fit, fashion, and durability; Sound quality underwhelming for such a high price
By PaperChased
I've worn my B&O A8 earphones for about four years now, and they're my favorite headphones by far. They're very much worth the price simply for the sturdy fit they give you, particularly if you need headphones for the gym.I don't think you can find a more fashionable set of earphones. I've gotten many compliments on them, and I think they look great.They're also very robust. The aluminum construction is very hearty, and I never worry about breaking the earphones when they're rumbling around in my gym bag. The weakest component is the cord, but on many occasions the earphones have been pulled off my head when I snagged the cord, and no problems at all.My only warning is that the earphones don't have strong bass. The mids and highs are very pleasant and well defined, but these earphones won't throttle you while you're listening to hip hop. I expected a little bit more rounded sound, particularly for the money and from a company like B&0. I use my Koss Portapros (1/5th the cost) when I want a fuller sound with better bass.If I lost this pair of B&Os, I wouldn't hesitate in buying a new set.
