+1 for Griffin Technologies (iPod Earbuds)

**Consultant** · 12-21-09, 02:53 PM

I bought a pair of Griffin earbuds (excellent sound btw) in an airport after my factory iPod earbuds self destructed and fell apart - well, that was about 8 months ago.

Last week I was using them with my laptop and one of them shocked the SHIT out of my ear - big pop and sting.

I emailed them and asked them about replacements and warranty and they didn't even fight...they just asked for my address to email me a new set.

Good on them! I am used to the run-around and so-so support. I thought this company deserved a little recognition.

So they're sending you the new set via email?

What's the delivery time on email this time of year, 4 to 6 seconds? :P

I can never get earbuds to stay they always fall out. I had some over the ear ones that sucked.
BTW how much are they?

I like my set of Shure in-ear buds for that reason flame. Traditional iPod earbuds are either too small or too big. Most in-ears come with a variety of silicone pads to ensure the best fit/comfort.

I think I paid like $35 or 40 for these "Thumps" but that was airport price - so I expect retail is a little less.

I had these and they were fucking awesome. Never fell out of my ear and it also had excellent sound quality. It also came with different size rubber things that you can swap out so it fits your ear better.

I see you those and raise you these! Except mine were at least sort of affordable, as opposed to those ridiculous $1100 UE11 custom monitors.
