Sony - bollocks
I splashed out about £50 on a pair of sony in ear headphones as I'd been so delighted with their old range of standard plug sort.
They were awful - tinny, uncomfortable, quiet and when I took them back to the shop I was told firstly that it was my player, my ears, and then that the sound quality was wonderful and I just didn't appreciate it, and how much he'd want to own a pair himself.
Strangely, when I offered to sell said £50 earphones to the chap behind the counter for £5, he declined.
Don't be conned by the name - they really are crap. I gave them away in the end.
I've gone back to the old "wedge them in your ear" type and full sized cans, and I'm much happier. Feels good to have a bit of a flame rant about a company that has persisted in ripping me off time and again.
