Way better than I anticipated for the price.

I am in multiple bands and usually bring my in-ear monitor systems. I don't have the money to spend a lot on premium monitors, so I generally get $100 - $150 base model monitors.

My budget has gone slightly south on that level, so I tried more budget models. These LEKATO said they had a 4-core system, which is even a little higher than the 2-core ones I had before, so I decided to listen.

First of all, the packaging and materials were of a much higher quality than I had anticipated. The earbuds are not attached to the wires, which is a great feature, as I have had to dump previous monitors because of shorts in the primary wire.

The plugin wire feels high-quality, and the connection to the earbuds is secure.

Finally, the quality is unreal. For under $30, I highly recommend these. The driver is high-quality, and the 4-core system offers excellent depth. The earbuds are very secure and comfortable, at least for my ears, and the fit is tight enough to provide a decent amount of external noise canceling. I also do not have to reduce the volume on my wireless pack too much.

Overall, I am very impressed with these and will remember them if I ever need to get new ones. However, if it is in the near future, I may not... :)

Good sound quality. Stay on ears well.

I ordered these earphones for myself. They have a good sound quality. I like that they have the keeper to help them stay in place and not make me jam them in my ears to make them stay put. They are very light and compact so I hardly know they are there. They are also discrete and don't call attention to themselves. I like that they comes with replacement silicone ear pieces. The cable is long enough and lightweight so the weight of the cable doesn't drag on my ears. Five stars.

Awesome - and I have picky ears.

My ears don't generally like anything that even remotely resembles earbuds. They are constantly coming loose, or else sound bad. These are neither.

The first thing I noticed was that these fit nice and snugly - even before I plugged in the wires that double as the ear wraparound. and once I got them wired up and plugged into a receiver, I was pleasantly surprised. They sound great. Maybe a hair light in the bass department, but only a hair. Highly, highly recommended.
