Review - Monster Jamz High Performance In-Ear Headphones

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys R David here it has been about one week since I received the Monster Jams high performance in your headphones from Monster cable.com special thanks again to you guys for sending these my way I really enjoyed putting these through the test this past week or so and as promised this is my video review of the actual headphones but first of all let me go through everything that's included here are the here are the actual jams well I hope they're included um got left and right uh channels here actually left and right um little ear tips on the front as well as two other sizes as well as a shirt clip so if you don't like long cables you can clip it on your shirt and which I thought was really cool they actually give you a little jam on uh branded bag for your headphones to go in and it's a very nice felt feeling case uh with the monster cable logo on there or Monster logo rather um and it has the jams brand all over this and yes this is a standard 3 and 1 12 mm Jack but it's goldplated so it looks nice um so let me give you guys a quick disclaimer just because I received this product for free does not mean in any way I'm going to sugarcoat um any like facts um this this is a totally honest review um so I hate to say it this ahead of time but these headphones weren't as impressive as I was hoping to be but without further Ado enjoy okay so let's start out with the actual Pros first of all I have to say these headphones are high quality these things are solid metal um actually someone from monster monster themselves actually emailed me saying that oh David by the way the this is solid metal we have put these things through a stress test um first we took a a hammer to the actual metal not a DSE and then we actually ran over the jams which I think this is hilarious with a few th000 lb forklift and it didn't even leave a scratch I think that's amazing and apparently they have a video of this happening on their website so if I do find this I'll put this in the sidebar to the right of this video um the next Pro I have my my little notes here so if you see me looking over there that's why um they do feel good in the ear now now I have to be honest I'm not a big fan of inear headphones uh for those of you not aware in ear means not the ones that Apple gives you with the iPhone iPod or any of that the ones that just sit on your ears these actually go in your ears so you got to push them in and then you got to wear them like this just kidding I can't hear anything get it stupid joke I'm sorry but basically I'm saying uh these things are actually more comfy than I thought they were going to be did I just say comfy I mean comfortable that's a more Pro word and as mentioned they do include extra ear tips so for whatever reason if these are too big I believe these look a little smaller and they have a shirt clip as mentioned if this Cable's too long for you if uh you're jogging or anything like that then yes you can clip these onto your shirt and that way the cable's not like you know all over the place hitting in um in the face or any of that weird stuff so my third Pro is yes it is a long cable it's better to have more cable than less in my opinion so that's a a good Pro to have in mind okay now speaking about the actual sound sound quality is amazing at least in terms of treble the reble is extremely crisp it goes very very loud uh trust me I had it at max volume to the point where I was practically going deaf but uh I obviously had to test it out for you guys so I was going deaf which is a good thing in terms of sound not a good things in terms of my health but um the point is these headphones do go very loud so that's always a good thing and as mentioned the treble is excellent things were extremely crisp you guys may know that I like a lot of video game soundtracks which which includes a lot of piano violin all that good stuff and piano uh notes sound it extremely clear um so yes overall sound quality in terms of trouble was excellent I really don't like pointing out bad things about a product but like I said I try to be as honest as possible first of all I have to say the base is very lacking I've used headphones cheaper than these by the way these sell for $120 I believe one $19.95 to be exact um I'll put a link in the sidebar um if you're interest and purchasing these but I got to say I have used headphones for cheaper than $120 and the basic performance was more impressive now keep in mind I'm not claiming to be an audio file CU I'm not yes I like good audio I like good music I like a lot of bass in my music which is why I have a subo for under this desk I love bass guys however I realize these are not over the ear headphones where they can't include as much uh electronics or whatever inside here but like I said I have used used other in ear other inear earbuds sorry mouthful um that had better base performance so I was kind of U expecting more out of this second con is kind of a big one and and it has no onboard mic or volume controls now in my opinion for $120 headphones like these with this quality with this kind of price tag should have onboard volume controls maybe not a microphone that's not required however it's kind of becoming a standard nowadays but when headphones that come with my iPhone have onboard volume controls and a microphone and those earphones probably sell for what $30 $40 I'm not I'm not totally sure on that but the fact that these headphones for $120 do not include those basic features I had to be honest that was a huge letdown to me I really don't see the excuse for not including them I just don't get it um I'm not I'm not trying to hate on Monster Cable cuz they do make nice quality products but I got to be honest sometimes their products are overpriced this doesn't go for everything but for these headphones I got to be honest Guys these these headphones are overpriced for what you get so basically overall I think you can get better for Less however if you're willing to spend a money and and um you don't need an onboard mic or onboard volume controls then these are probably worth it but for me or the average consumer who could spend $120 on better products I got to say pass on these and uh look for something better cheaper sorry just being honest U so there you go guys thanks for watching um special thanks again the monster cable for sending these out I really enjoyed these honestly I did they just weren't what I expected so um I guess that's it check out my Social Links in
