Review Summary

An interesting product, but not one we'd ever pay nearly US$500 to own. Too many other headphones offer superior sound quality, although they won't give you the unique speaker-like experience the PFR-V1s do. But if you hate headphones and love speakers, you may fall in love.

Monster's Turbine in-ear headphones looks, feels, and sounds like a much more expensive model.

While it's expensive and isn't loaded with features, the Bose SoundDock 10 is classy looking and sounds excellent for a compact iPod/iPhone speaker.

These 'buds are highly recommended if you're looking for strong bass performance and a good fit. However, the stiff and slightly thin cables are its biggest problems.
