Arctic Cooling E361-BM Earphone

All I Gotta Say is Boom Boom Pow!

I recently had a chance to check out these head phones by Arctic Cooling and I have to say, they are awesome. If you like bass, this is a must have. It also has outside noise cancellation so you can enjoy your music even more.


THE PACKAGE AND DESIGN
The package contains a carrying case, the headphones, and the two other sets of silicone caps (with the medium set already attached to the ear buds). Also included is the "Y" split adapter that allows the use of the microphone (it splits the mic from the audio), a small clip to keep the microphone against your shirt, an Arctic Cooling sticker, and a ten-language product manual.

These headphones look slightly different as the ear buds are curved for a better fit. The carrying case also a very nice touch as it looks good while keeping your valuable headphones safe. It is small enough to fit just about anywhere. Looks like AC wanted to stand out with their design and they did a very good job. The three sets of silicone caps give you the flexibility and comfort you for long hours of use. The "Y" split adapter comes in handy when you need to plug this in to your computer to separate the audio-in from audio-out.

THE SETUP
Well there really isn’t anything to set up. All you have to do is take the headphones out of the box, hook it up to your iPod, MP3 Player or computer and attach the silicon cap that’s most comfortable for you and plug the ear buds in your ear and you are all set.

USAGE AND TESTING
I had a chance to test this head set with my work computer, my home computer and my iPhone. I now carry this headset (in the provided carrying case) everywhere I go because this is great headset. I’ve tried other headsets and it doesn’t match up to the sound and quality of this headset. (You may need to adjust the equalizer on your media or mp3 player if the bass is to much or not enough).

You will be surprised with how much bass this headset has. I also use some cheap headsets and I can tell you that these are worth every penny. I had never expected this kind of bass from these tiny headsets. The quality of the sound coming out of these ear buds is also crisp and clear. There is also a built-in mic that you can use, well as a mic to record stuff or as a hands-free system with your phone. You are going to get excellent sound quality with minimal background noise. You will not notice any static or echoes during phone calls with the E361. The ear buds are soft and comfortable so they won’t irritate your ears with long hours of usage.


FINAL THOUGHTS

After using this headset for a few days, I am very pleased to say that the sound, quality and not to mention the bass are very impressive. The soft silicon caps make the headset comfortable so you can enjoy your music with whatever your doing and don’t have to worry about having sore ears or anything. I am not sure how much these cost in stores, but the Arctic Cooling website says the MSRP is around $52 (if you do a little research, you may find better deals).I would recommend this headset for anyone looking for a good quality headset with tons of bass.
