The sound quality is deep and rich, they're very comfortable to run with, resilient AND THEY'RE ONLY $25!!! These are easily the best pair of headphones to run with in terms of sound quality, price and comfort.
whole process was A LOT easier than I had expected). I recently noticed that the ear clips on the Yuin G1A and G2A look near identical to those on the KSC75. I was wondering: has anyone tried attaching the capsules from either Yuin model onto the Portapro headband? (I'm hoping that this thread will pop up in a Google search since no one on gdgt appears to own a pair of Yuins, at least at the time of this writing)...
I don't know if it's a flaw specific to my unit, but I think that they're very unconfortable. The cushion makes me feel pain in the ear skin, what doesn't happen with other in-ear phones such as Sony MDR-EX32LP which I also have, and it's not nearly as retractable as regular in-ear plugs that you buy at stores.

I don't own the Sehnheisers but I do own the Koss PortaPro. I highly recommend them, but I've heard good stuff about the other one. I made a review about the PortaPro if you want to know more about them.
I just came back from running an errand where I had my iPod tucked inside my coat and was wearing the headphones under my hat, with the cord hanging loose. The cord caught on a chain-link fence I was passing, and with the speed I walking at, the cord yanked one 'phone off my ear, separating it from the clip. I took a few steps before I noticed the clip was missing, and spent a few minutes then searching for the white clip in the white snow in the dark night. Luckily it landed on top of a...
