Sennheiser MX 55 VC Street

$45.00 Released May, 2008

The Pros:Weighted, right-angle design keeps earbuds well-seated - excellent option for jogging/running and other forms of exercise. Variety of plug/ring components included appeals to users of all types - increases potential user base to male and female consumers of all ages. Sound outputting is clean and well-balanced - audio is true to natural characteristics, with minimal frequency adjustment or coloration.

The Cons:Many retailers are seemingly limited to the lime green color option - may be too "flashy" or unsightly for some users. Tight, in-ear design may cause discomfort amongst extended listening applications - many users report difficulty wearing the earbuds for more than 2 hours. Unit cord is highly-prone to coiling/tangling - can lead to a drastically reduced cable lifespan, not to mention extreme frustration.

The Sennheiser MX 55 VC Street earphones have the twist to fit system is designed to provide a firm fit. The outer piece of the earbud sits inside your ear, holding the earbud in place. The MX 55 VC has slightly better technical specifications than the MX 50 or MX 51, as both have a 19 to 21,000 HZ frequency response.
