Product Description
You can wear your player without extra cords getting in the way of you and your music. Comfortable and near custom fit earphones block out noise from the outside so all you hear is the full sound and extended bass. The Rivet Micro Clip on the lanyard securely attaches to almost any music player and any Rivet GRAB. Rhythm was designed specifically for small music players that you would rather wear around your neck than carry or put in your pocket. But an extension cord is included for those times when the lanyard isn't the best place for your music player. And for tangle-free storage, just slide the adjuster up to the earphones to ensure they'll be ready for the next use, hassle-free.

Could easily be a great product September 23, 2007
I wanted headphones that offered good sound quality, but I didn't want to reach the hundreds to do it.
I discovered this pair, and I read some pretty good reviews regarding sound quality from cnet. However, many of those reviews also stated that they had rather poor cable construction. I took my chances and unfortunately it seems to be true.
I ordered my first pair from ritzCamera, and everything was great. The sound blew away any other pair of headphones I had ever had, and the price was great. After four days the left earphone went dead. RitzCamera didn't even have me send the product back, and a few days later I received a second pair, with no charge, or hassle. Hopefully this pair would prove that the first just happened to be defective.
This second pair performed perfectly for two weeks. However, the left earphone slowly went dead. As in, I had to wiggle the cable and stand/sit in the exact right position to make sure that things were making full contact. Four weeks after that no amount of positioning my self awkwardly could fix it.
As far as the whole lanyard ability going on, I never used it but, it seemed to be a relatively sturdy set up.
Also, the cables are not insulated in rubber, instead they are insulated with cloth (at least on the outside). This looks rather interesting, but there are two problems. The white cloth gets dirty, and due to the cloths texture a lot of noise is created if it rubs against your shirt or body.
The cloth would hardly bother me if the headphones just had better cable construction.
If that were the case, these would be a great sounding cheap pair of headphones.
-EDIT:
The producer of this product has addressed the cable construction issues noted in this review. They were even willing to replace my broken pair at no charge but the postage of the old pair to them. I have had the redesigned pair for several months, and they are still in operating order. Due to this I would change my rating to 5 stars if I could.
