I use them for running and apparently sweated into the button/mic pod one too many times. Now the pause/answer switch won't work. I'm still looking for a pair of headphones with pause/answer functionality that can stand up to a big sweaty guy who runs...

They sounded great, but the cloth covering is terrible about holding kinks near the plastic fittings and causing shorts in the wire. I' had to get my pair replaced once for that and it was ALSO the reason I quit using the replacements.</p> <p><em>[Edited at May 15, 2008 15:10:05 PM.]</em></p> I had a pair of these which I loved.

Usually I don't like clip on headphones though, they don't work for me ever. I prefer some simple wrap arounds or something like that. Anywho, I think I might look into buying myself a pair of these. I am always looking for some headphones that don't fail hard. ^^ Thanks.</p> Hmmm, this is honestly my first day on here and I’m glad to be part of it. ^^ (And now back onto topic)
