Uniquely designed earphones proven to enhance sound quality
My first impression upon receiving a set of purebuds earphones was how will the "revolutionary sound technology" actually enhance my listening experience. After dismantling all the different ear pieces and trying them out, I definitely felt a change in the sound quality of my music. The purebuds earphones are packaged in a black case containing three sets of interchangeable earphone pieces (surround sound, bass boost, and full range). My personal favorite is the bass boost tip which not only enhances the bass but the overall sound experience without harming my ears. The purebuds earphones are comparable to other leading brands for a better price. Although the purebuds earphones offer a variety of ear tips with different audio effects, having to constantly change out the ear tips to your preference can be a hassle. I sometimes have difficulty inserting the surround sound tips. Nevertheless, I appreciate the variety and choices available at my disposal.

Comfortable, Ergonomic, and Safe for Your Ears? Alright!
My intention for new earbuds was just wanting new earbuds. I didn't really care that much about cool special effects as long as they were comfortable and had great sound.
I blew out the speakers in my Apple headsets in about a week of having them. I guess I listen to my music too loudly for Apple.
I had a set of BOSE earbuds that I loved, but someone else loved them too and took them :/
I couldn't really justify spending another $100 on earbuds in this economy, so I tried a pair of fashionable (pink) $6 Sony earbuds - OUCH! They didn't fit in my ears at all, and I could hardly hear anything coming out of them even at the loudest speaker setting.
That's where Purebuds came in. AMAZING sound quality. I have earbuds in probably 6-8 hours a day between taking public transportation to work (I sometimes leave my buds in even if my iPod battery is dead to avoid having to talk to crazies) and working a bustling downtown area (they are currently filiming "Trauma" in San Francisco). I can honestly say that I found the comfort of these earbuds a solid 4 out of 5. I also tend to fall asleep listening to my iPod and the earbuds were not as comfortable when lying on my side. I didn't realize that the earbuds are ergonomic until the Rep that I spoke to informed me. The cord is completely different compared to all other earbuds that I own as it is intended to go around the back of your head. Kinda weird at first, but cool because it doesn't get caught on things when I lean over. You would be suprised at how many times earbuds get ripped out of my ears because they got caught on my keyboard or something else in front of me. Bonus points for the fact that these earbuds are safe for your ears. I'm scientifically challenged, so I'm not going to explain how they do it, but I like it! My Purebuds came with 3 different sets of tips for surround sound, bass, and general listening. Downside & Upside: Down - If I lose a tip that I use a lot (right now I use the general listening the most) I'm relegated to listening with a different tip that might not be best suited for whatever I'm listening to. I'm sure they're easy and cheap to replace, so it's not a huge deal. Up - HELLO! I basically get to listen to music however I wanted to as if it were coming from not earbuds! I like the fact that if I'm watching an action packed movie on my iPhone on the airplane I can listen in surround sound; or if I'm rockin' out to whatever makes me happy I can basically turn up the bass; and lastly, if I'm just running on the treadmill (or most likely, sitting at my desk in front of my computer) I can listen to music with great sound quality.
All in all, great product for a great price!

Perfect
After a few days of trying out these earphones, I was blown away by how nice it sounds. I was a bit skeptic at first and expected the same kind earphones I can get at target for less than $20.00. But boy was I wrong. I was already impressed by the fancy box and the high quality case and 3 different tips. The Purebuds looks sleek and not too out of the ordinary. The left ear is shorter than the right ear, which allows the user to easily use only one side without the other one getting in the way.
I really like how there are 3 different ear tips for the Purebuds. Unlike other common earphones that come with other tips that are simply for aesthetics (i.e. different color tips), these tips are actually practical. I like to use different ones for when I'm listening to music, movies, speeches, etc.
The Reverse Sound Technology was really noticeable for me. I personally don't like loud, obnoxious music and blasting the volume all the way up so the entire city can hear. I noticed that even though the sound was softened, it didn't reduce quality at all. I also feels good knowing that it's not as damaging to my ears as other ear buds.
All in all, you get your money's worth, if not, more so.

Join the Purebuds Revolution...Pure Music, Safe Sound
It's 1990 and I'm driving on some dull trip with my parents. They're listening to some awful music on the car stereo. It'd be an otherwise horrible trip, but lucky for me I've got my brand new walkman, with a copy of Vanilla Ice's "To the Extreme" blaring through the headphones. My mom told me that I had to keep the volume pretty low, but in order to hear it over the car stereo I've got the volume cranked to the very end. My mom says she can hear the music coming out of my headphones, but I don't care. My choices are listen at a safe level or hear the music.
It's 2002 and I'm working on an essay, listening to music through my headphones. A few years of loud concerts and biology lessons have taught me that subjecting my ears to loud music, but I don't care. I'm having a good time with the volume as is.
It's 2006 and I just got an iPod with video. It's a good way to kill time on the train, but something of a disappointing movie watching experience. Having a home theater system at home has spoiled my enjoyment of a movie without surround sound.
It's 2008 and I'm pleased to announce that Amazing Tech Products Inc. has a solution to all these problems. The Purebuds are a set of earbuds that use reverse sound technology to bounce the sound away from your ear drums, rather than directly at those sensitive little buggers. This leads to a softer sound experience without compromising sound quality.
I'll admit I was a little skeptical when I was first introduced to Purebuds. "Sure," I said "They're better for your ears. But how do they sound? Are we giving up volume in exchange for safety."
Well, I've been trying out my pair, and I'm pleased to say that they sound great. I have a small collection of expensive headphones and ear buds that I use on a regular basis, and I can say without reservation that they stack up to most of them as they sound as good or better than all of my earbuds. They pack a lot of punch into a reasonably small frame, and don't seem to be as prone to distortion as my other earbuds.
I do a lot of walking, and I like to have some music with me when I go, like my own personal soundtrack. A neat little byproduct of the reverse sound technology is that it lets in more outside sound. While this makes them less than desirable for louder environments, it lets you be more aware of your surroundings.
The Purebuds also come with three tips, each one promising a different "audio ambiance effect." While I found that the "Full Range" and "Bass Boost" worked as advertised, I had a difficult time keeping the "Surround Sound" tips in my ears long enough to get a feel for how well the worked. I have oddly shaped ears, so your millage may vary.
All and all, I'm pretty psyched to be reporting on these headphones. The fact that they are a product Amazing Tech Products Inc is releasing does make me a bit biased, but I was excited enough about the headphones to volunteer to write it up on the blog. Regardless of who makes them, these are a solid product that I enjoy using.

The Sound of Music
I must confess that I've never been one for earbuds, I typically do prefer headphones, but good headphones are expensive and quality headphones with an inexpensive price tag are hard to find. I finally gave up on finding good and inexpensive headphones that I like and switched over to earbuds. My experience with earbuds is that they are uncomfortable and fail to deliver decent sound quality, but they don't mess up my hair.
Now I have Pure Buds, it's everything I want in earbuds, mainly comfort. I have had Pure Buds for only three days now, and I don't think they've left my ears yet. I wouldn't know they were in my ears if music wasn't constantly going.
The sound quality of Pure Buds was instantly noticeable. I am accustomed to my Apple iPod earbuds, so when I heard the same song I had just been listening to, this time with my Pure Buds, I was shocked to hear new sounds in the song. I wasn't getting the full range of sounds in my music before, which upset me for a while until I realized that the problem was solved with my new Pure Buds.
The three earbud tips that come with Pure Buds are comfortable, flexible, and actually work. The full range tip is the one I use most, the sounds of every genre I listen to are much crisper.
The bass booster tip I've used least. I don't get too excited over bass like some people do, the quality of the other sounds in the music are sacrificed to make way for the excellent bass quality, which seems to be something bass junkies don't ever mind.
The surround sound tip was the most impressive for me, I watch a lot of movies and have only a laptop. Listening closer while watching Star Wars, I quickly realized how much I was missing from the movie experience.
By far, the full range earbud tip is most impressive and the one I consider the default, though other ears may prefer other earbud tips.
I would suggest the next time you buy earbuds or headphones and you don't have the money for $300 Beats by Dre headphones, go with PureBuds. For about fifty dollars they are comfortable, sound great, and come with the three options of earbud tips that help in many differing auditory situations.
