5Perfect for Hip Hop music!

Package|AccessoriesThe IE8 comes in an attractive, sturdy package that consists of many accessories. They include cable guides, shirt clip, cleaning tool/bass knob key, 10 sets of eartips, and a protective case. The protective case is pretty bulky for travel but it's pretty, lined with brushed aluminum.Fit|Isolation|AppearanceThe IE8 fits snug and very well in the ear. It's very comfortable, even when worn to sleep. The isolation with the included eartips however, is not that great. It depends on the ear but I found the Monster foam Supertips to work very well for isolation. The design is pretty simple, nothing too fancy. The housing has the Sennheiser logo and the adjustable bass knob is visible.Build|CableThe build quality of the IE8 is outstanding. It's housing is made with durable plastic and looks as though could take a beating. The only possible downside is the nozzle, which could come off if twisted too forcefully when putting in certain eartips like Comply. The cable is one of the better ones out there, not to mention it's replaceable. It's Kevlar-reinforced and tangle-resistant with proper strain reliefs on the plug/y-split. The plug is angled but surprisingly, not gold plated. The mic/remote works like it's supposed to.SoundThe IE8 sounds amazing to my ears. The treble is just right, very clear and detailed. The midrange is smooth, really brings the vocals out. The bass is very strong, not muddy but clear and monstrous. It has a bass adjustment knob to please any basshead. Soundstage on this is unreal, the music sounds like it's coming from everywhere. If you're a hip hop music fan, this is a must have. Only thing I noticed when listening to genres other then hip hop, some sounds get overemphasized and makes it seem unnatural. It seems like this was made for listening to hip hop.The VerdictAlthough there are earphones that are more detailed, there is none with the combination of the bass and soundstage of the IE8. I'm in a happy place every time I listen hip hop with these bad boys. These can be had for under $300 and is worth every penny due to the build, replaceable cable, comfort, and sound.

4great sound. inconvenient remote
By GDL
I've bought 4 different brands/models over 100 USD inEar headphones to test.Sennheiser IE 8i had the best sound.Though I didn't keep it since I like to switch songs often in the middle and listen to a next one. Sennheiser's remote was INCONVENIENT in this model: too small buttons and the sensitivity also bad (need to press too hard, sometimes it skipped 2 songs).Go for it if you listen your music without switching the tracks often!P.S. By the way I didn't like to wear them with a cord over the ear. I wanted to have a simple plug-in headphones.So I switched left and right headphones (they are detachable in this IE 8i Sennheiser) to preserve the 'order' and have been using them as most usual inEar headphones. With premium sound quality.
