I love these. Too bad I've already got a set of earphones I just can't part with. definitely will keep these in mind for future replacements.

these are great. I am not exactly sure how this works..though. And why so expensive?

@greendiva
I will answer any questions for you. I am the president and ceo of thinksound. The reason for the price is the quality of the headphones. These headphones are hifi headphones not your standard throw away headphones. We have been compared to the sound of headphones for many hundreds of dollars. I am not going to start talking about how great our headphones are because I do not think it is right to do on a comment board but I will answer any questions you may have.

These look fantastic, and I would totally pay the price. (Who am I kidding -- I love wood touches on tech. I've paid premium for Miniot iPhone cases and a memory "stick" before.) But the missing feature I really crave in my earbuds is the iPhone 3GS+ volume control feature. Any chance you plan on updating your +mic headphone model, Aaron? :)

plastic free? what is all the black stuff if not plastic/PVC?

Those look great. I'm considering a pair. If anyone is looking for something that looks similar but is more affordable, check out "iFrogz Timbre" earbuds. They have pretty good sound for the price. However, mine have a loose cable in one of the earbuds. That happens to a lot of my earbuds though (except the Apple ones, for some odd reason).

I love my ThinkSounds! I have a set for work and another set I carry around, and I got my wife a pair as well. I've also recommended them to several friends, and everyone loves them. I haven't found anything in this price point that sounds nearly as good.

@gunterh I don't know why they say 'plastic free' but we are PVC free and we use a much more friendly TPE for the cable which is kevlar reinforced to increase durability. The plastic in the package is also recyclable.

@ginnielizz There are no plans to add the volume control to the earphones as that would limit us to only selling them to iphone users. We want other smartphone users to be able to use the microphone as well. We would also have to purchase the technology for the volume control from the big fruit company which would raise prices and cause other issues that we do not feel like dealing with.
