    Detailed Test Results

    Design and features:The Jib Wireless has an integrated microphone and music player function, and call connect/disconnect control for use with paired Bluetooth devices. The wire that connects the two earphones together runs behind the neck, with the module that contains the electronics and the small module that houses the controls incorporated into the wire. This model comes with two pairs of ear pieces in various sizes and a USB charging cable.

    Sound quality: We found the Jib Wireless delivers sound quality that falls in the good range - it reproduces music and voice reasonably well despite the obvious shortcomings in its sound. The overall sound can be summarized as bass heavy and somewhat hazy. Bass (as in bass drums, bass guitars, stand-up bass, etc.) has good impact and goes deep, but is prominent and boomy. The midrange (voices, guitars, horns, etc.) is fairly even, but is somewhat hazy and grainy, a bit congested (think sonic traffic jam), and somewhat overwhelmed by the bass. The treble (cymbals, the upper range of violins, etc.) is a bit subdued and smeared (sounds that should have a delicate shimmer sound blurred), and the upper treble is a bit muted. While the sound has a decent sense of liveliness it is closed-in (sound-wise it is obvious that you have something plugging up your ears).

    Comfort: As typical of in-ear models the Jib Wireless produces a sense of pressure in the ear canal opening might be uncomfortable for some. Once this model is placed in the ears it will stay in place with no problem during casual use, but users with larger ear canal openings will not be able to get a good seal from the larger of the two ear pieces supplied, so they will not be able to hear the best sound quality that this model offers. The in-line electronics module and section of the earphone-to-earphone connecting cable that goes behind the neck is not generally noticeable unless it interferes with clothing. When the earphones are not in the ears they can be dangled so they rest on the chest which is convenient, but they will swing out away from the body when leaning over; this can be bothersome, lead to the earphones getting tangled, or expose them to damage.
