Bang & Olufsen A8 earphone

[PooDeFuego]

Does anybody have any experience with these earphones? I am looking to purchase, but I am finding mixed reviews about them, all from non-reputable websites...

any help would be great...thanks...

I considered these, read as much as I could over at head-fi.org, and went with the less expensive, far better reputed Audio Technica ATH-EC7s (http://www.amazon.com/AUDIO-TECHNICA-ATH-EC7GM-Clip-on-Headphones/dp/B000CMS0Y4/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-6613543-0205742?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1174677737&sr=8-1).

I have NOT regretted these at all.

I own A8 earphones.

They're stylish, and I think they have a decent sound signature. Yet, I find them to become slightly uncomfortable somewhere around the 1 hour of continuos use time. I do use them on occassion, but I mostly use the $99 Futuresonics EM3's.

I think they are great for the gym actually. Earbuds fall out too easily. Sound is pretty good, isolation isn't so great... If you listen to music loud, you will definitely annoy everyone around you. They are a bit pricey, and I feel like they are not bass-boosted like Sonys would be...
