hey I'm just new headphone editor for CNET and these are the v-moda remix remote earphones I'm giving these an editor's choice because they're the best value for under a hundred bucks right now Amazon is selling them for 80 which makes them an even better deal not just because they sound great and work well to block outside noise but also because when you buy into the v-moda brand you're also getting the benefits of a generous two-year warranty and an attention to detail and headphones that I have yet to see from another manufacturer the first thing that sets them apart is their durability the earbuds themselves are fitted with metal that housed the 9 millimeter drivers inside then you've got a kevlar sheath that wraps the 32 inch braided cable in an extra layer of toughness also the joints are all reinforced with extra rubber that lets them Bend and accommodate all your smart phone cases and accessories with all that material you may expect them to weigh a lot but they don't in fact there are only 17 grams and that includes the three button microphone and remote control that sits beneath the why split left and right cables of course a headphone is only as good as it sounds so a good fit makes a big difference in their sonic reach now the term universal fit is kind of a misnomer because there's really no such thing but v-moda does its best with four pairs of black clear silicone ear tips a set of ear stabilizers for your workout as well as a padded case to take care of them in transit all the ear tip options means you should be able to get a tight seal in your ears and that means a lot for the sound design the company uses a 31 band equalizer to test all the drivers and the custom tuning means these are great for any genre of music they're also excellent at blocking external noises so there are worthwhile buy if you're shopping for headphones to take away from your surroundings whether that's a daily commute or the drone of a busy office so the v-moda remix remotes definitely earn CNET's Editors Choice Award for their clear highs resonant bass 2 year warranty and a generous array of accessories if you're in the market for a new pair of headphones these definitely deserve your attention so I'm Justin you for CNET you just took a first look at the v-moda remix remote
