Cingular Go Phone: Palm Stereo Headset for Palm Pixi and Palm Pre Review

First let me say that I have been using my iPod for years listening to music regularly while I workout. So when I got my Palm Pre, it was nice to be able to retire my iPod Classic and go with my more compact (always on me anyway) Smartphone as my primary mp3 player. At the time, I had some slightly modified factory iPod headsets (I put Griffin EarJams on them) which I had been using for years and loved up to that point (or so I thought).

Now when I first started using the Palm Pre and its factory headset I remember thinking right away that it had a pretty good sound quality. When I compared that sound to my Griffin EarJam modified iPod factory headset, there was no comparison. I immediately retired my iPod faithfuls and moved forward with the Palm Pre factory headset.

Well unfortunately my Palm Pre headset eventually gave out on me (probably due to a little to much rough housing on my part). Having no choice I went back to an Apple headset once again. Only this time opting for a 2nd generation factory iPhone headset so I could still control my calls and my music on my Palm Pre. I again immediately noticed a difference in sound quality. Only this time is was a downgrade. Since it had been a couple weeks since I broke my Palm Pre headset I didn't realize how much of a negative change it was, so I eventually became acceptant of the difference in sound quality.

Still feeling a little dissatisfied with the sound, but mostly because I hated walking around looking like one of Apple's minions (despite the fact I use a Mac) with their white earbuds dangling from my ears, and also hating that the white headset didn't match my black Palm Pre smartphone (I'm anal that way :-), I wandered in a couple Sprint stores to see if I could finagle a replacement for my original Palm Pre factory set.

NO LUCK OF COURSE :-( And I even gave them my best bees and honey routine :-).

Eventually one of the ears on my iPhone substitutes went out which only complicated my issue further. At which point I went on a quest through a myriad of replacement headsets only to find myself longing for a replacement for my original Palm Pre headset because of some now vague and faded memory I had of their "somewhat better" sound quality. I visited several more Sprint stores trying to acquire a complimentary replacement to no avail. After several stints with several different headsets that sinking feeling that I was missing something, and that my music just wasn't moving me the same way it use to remained.

Then I found these replacements on Amazon! Based on the price, I was a little skeptical as to whether they would be the genuine Palm Pre originals, but I ordered two pair anyway. Not only were they definitely the Palm Pre originals (complete with the perfectly placed microphone/controller button and the magnetic earbuds), but my music once again came to life with a sound quality I hadn't heard in months. I have to admit, I never truly realized initially how good they actually are! I can hear every ping of every cymbal, the lingering tone of every piano note, the crisp ambiance of every violin, and the thud of every bass beat! These things sound truly amazing! It took my experience without them to really appreciate the overall quality of the build and the sound!

!!!!!!!!THESE ARE THE BEST DAMN HEADPHONES UNDER $50 BAR NONE!!!!!!!!

Now maybe I haven't experienced any of the high-end headsets and don't know what the quality of sound is at that end of the spectrum, but I certainly am an avid music listener with a very diverse taste in the types of music I enjoy. So I certainly have an awareness of and fondness for good sound quality. That said, if you are the average listener who like me believes that my HEADSET SHOULD NOT HAVE TO COST MORE THAN MY DAMN PHONE TO SOUND GOOD and is just looking for some great sound at a realistic cost (in this case it's a steal actually).

BUY THESE IMMEDIATELY!!!

And ur Welcome! (No need to thank me later :-)!
