What makes them special? Not trying to be rude, just asking :P

 

They're good, and they're affordable.  ;)

I agree with ShearMe, the J33's are good (got some for X-mas, woo). They have a nice bass, it's not overpowering, but you know it's there. Mids, for me, were... I don't know.. a little much? I'm used to the sound in my M50's, which have a little recessed mids (or so I've heard). And the highs are smooth (atleast that's the words I wanna use). 

 

All in all, I like them! Those differences in sound from M50's to these don't really matter, I'll get used to it. You might like them too, they're a great set of earbuds. uhm, I don't really know where I was going with this anymore.. I just got up, I'm tired. why I am I writing this?

I use the MEElectronics A161P set. The bass is very present, but it's tight enough that you can always pick out the kick drum. Mids are nice and warm without getting grainy, and highs are crystal clear. Absolutely stellar set.

You're and your are not the same. Neither are their, there, and they're. Defiantly and Definitely are definitely not the same. Definately and Rediculous are not words, and you should feel bad for misspelling them. If English is your first language, you don't have a learning disorder, and you get any of these wrong, you are making the entire forum slightly dumber by doing so. Please take the extra three seconds to type properly, and have a nice day.

The reviews are kinda mixed though

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

That's largely on account of the cable being a bit flimsy for the price. I've had mine for a couple months, and they've held up just fine for me. According to the response to my own preemptive inquiry, "All instances of cable failure are covered by warranty except for those resulting directly from abuse, neglect, mishandling (for example getting the cable severed by a desk drawer or destroyed by a pet)."

So these would be better than the Klipsch Image S4?

Considerably, yes.

You're and your are not the same. Neither are their, there, and they're. Defiantly and Definitely are definitely not the same.

How bout the Steelseries Flux In Ear Pro earbuds? Linus loves them

 

EEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

 

No, just no. If they were cheaper, maybe, but they're not, so no.
