I am used to wearing wired Apple earphones all around with me. I often listen while biking or riding an EUC. I simply must hear the surrounding traffic. These earphones let just enough ambient sound to pass trough yet they have a superior sound quality compare to other "OEM" headphones. Moreover, IMO the mic recordings sound just much better as well compare to earphones when used outside while passing around morning traffic. At last, I got an ear infection from wearing plugs in the past. Since then any plugs start irritating my left ear very quickly. I basically can not comfortable wear plugs in my ears for more than a few minutes anyway.
