Sound quality:

We found the Wired Earbuds With Lightning Connector (NS-HPLTNG24) delivers sound quality that falls in the good range - it reproduces music and voice reasonably well despite the obvious shortcomings in its sound. The bass (as in bass drums, bass guitars, stand-up bass, etc.) has good impact and goes deep, but is somewhat prominent and boomy. The midrange (voices, guitars, horns, etc.) is fairly even but is somewhat muffled and congested (think sonic traffic jam) and a bit grainy. The treble (cymbals, the upper range of violins, etc.) is fairly extended but is somewhat subdued and smeared. The sound has a weak sense of liveliness, it is closed (sound-wise it's obvious you have something plugging your ears) and does a so-so job of recovering room ambience. Warm character. The overall sound can best be summarized as somewhat muffled and bassy.

Comfort and Fit:
As typical of in-ear models they produce a sense of pressure in the ear canal opening that might be uncomfortable for some. Users with smaller sized ear canals will probably find that they fit and stay in place with no problem for casual use for and may find that they are stable during fairly vigorous head movement. Users with medium to large sized ear canals will probably find that they fit and stay in place with no problem for casual use. The sound of the earphone connecting cable rubbing on clothing may be heard through the earphones by some users depending on the clothing it's rubbing on.
