I've been prone to ear and sinus infections since I was a kid. Apparently I have narrow sinuses. I end up with a sinus infection nearly every time I get sick.

I've been prone to ear and sinus infections since I was a kid. Apparently I have narrow sinuses. I end up with a sinus infection nearly every time I get sick. To be fair, I find the sound quality lacking on most ear buds, even expensive ones. When it comes to low frequencies, the size of cone makes a difference. You'll never get the same kind of bass from an earbud as an over the ear headphone or a speaker. Music just isn't the same without bass or with lackluster bass. Bassvin most tracks is the bridge between melody and rythym and in many genres actually carries the song. If I had a choice between high quality treble and lakcluster bass, like most ear buds offer, despite, marketing and lousy high end with full bass, id' take the latter every time.
