After years of going through a variety of in-ear and on-ear headphones I was really looking for a set of headphones that would deliver quality sound, be very comfortable and be reasonably priced.
I've had these headphones for over 6 months now and have to say I've almost covered all three of those points. The first thing you (and everyone who walks past you) notice is the crazy lime green colour which to be honest I really liked. The design is pretty awesome too and is great for the gym as they never fall out and and fit very snugly in your ear.
Sound quality is great and I've had several songs now sound totally different to me since I can actually hear the bass in them which is a definite plus from me.
The PMX70s are also very easy to carry and come with a huge cable lead which is very cool and very useful.
Price wise I bought mine from Amazon for about £18 which was a real bargain buy considering the quality and so on.
There are two things though that I'm starting to not like about these headphones though. Firstly the bit where the cable joins the headphones has already started to peel a little even though my use of them has not been that hard. Also the problem is that after wearing them for longer periods it does get a bit uncomfortable in your ear and actually hurt a bit once as they are quite tight sometimes and 'push' in your ear.
Overall I say this is great for the price and is a great piece of kit for the gym. If you're a real music lover like me though go for some proper headphones such as the Bose noise cancelling ones which are much more expensive but so much more comfortable and next to none for sound.

I've heard so many times these sound great and stay in the ears but for the price I'd expect better build quality which most users say they are lacking. I suggest you take them back, you have a guarantee.
Advantages: They look great, sound is brilliant and they never fall out. Disadvantages: The neckband gets in the way if you try to lie down with them on.
