Macsimum review: EarPollution Timbre noise isolating earbuds by iFrogz

I recently got a chance to test their EarPollution Timbre model of earbuds. The first thing that really blew me away when I put them in my ears and turned on my iPhone, was how well they isolated outside noise. I was 10 feet from my television and could not hear any sound coming from it. If you do a lot of flying, I highly recommend getting a pair of these. They should drown cabin noise out completely.

The next thing that impressed me about them, was how snug and comfortable the fit in my ears. They ship with different size earfit pieces for ultimate comfort and ambient noise control, so you can get the perfect fit for your ear canals.

The microphone seemed to do a great job picking up my voice when talking on the iPhone too. Everyone I talk to says I sound great, with no background noise.

EarPollution Timbre noise isolating earbuds sport a natural wood-chamber for superb sound quality. The wooden ends add a unique classy look to the earbuds.

At $49.95, the price is right too. EarPollution Timbre's sound better than a lot of earbuds that cost twice as much. I found the sound and frequency response to be on par with my Bose in-ear headphones that cost $100.00.

EarPollution Timbre Specs
• Driver unit: 10 mm
• Impedance: 16 ohms
• Sensitivity: 103 dB
• Frequency Response: 20 Hz to 20Khz
• Cord Length: 1.1 m

Terra Noctis: Free Dreaming Promises Ple...
When I first played Terra Noctis, I came away with an incredibly positive opinion. Sure it had its share of problems. In fact, it had a ton of small ones. However it was still a cool platformer that was well worth the somewhat hefty (comparably) price of $2.99 at the time. The cost has dropped down to $0.99 since then, but even that might be “too... | Read more »
