Philips SHE9850 In-Ear Headphones Deliver Advanced Acoustics An improvement in both sound and comfort, Philips SHE9850 Advanced Acoustics Headphones evolved from extensive research into the music listening experience. The result is sound so pure, so full and rich you can hear every subtle nuance. These in-ear headphones fit perfectly, so when you put them in, you won’t want to take them out.

Enjoy Quality Sound High Definition Transducer

The motor of the receiver comprises of a coil, a metal u-shaped armature, a pair of permanent magnets, as well as a drive rod and diaphragm. Electromagnetic currents alter the armature’s polarity up or down, moving the drive rod and diaphragm to generate sound output. The receiver components have been fine-tuned to produce greater output at lower frequencies while boosting the peaks at higher frequencies. The result is crisp, detailed and transparent audio with extended precision highs. Precise Acoustic Tuning

Designed for a high quality listening experience, these headphones have been meticulously tuned by Philips iLab to deliver professional-grade acoustics with extended precision highs. The resulting sound is transparent, crisp and detailed. Angled Acoustic Design

Derived from a thorough understanding of the anatomy of a human ear canal, the Angled Acoustic design adjusts the angle of the speaker tube and ear bud to individual ear canal shapes. Besides delivering sound directly to your ears, it also createds a perfect seal from ambient noise that enables you to listen to your music at lower volum levels.

Ultimate Wearing Comfort Ear Fitting Design

The design superiority of a slight 15-degree tilt in the Angled Acoustic model based on the anatomy of the human ear achieves a natural fit and supreme comfort. Three-Size Ultra-Soft Silicon Cap

Available in three different sizes - small, medium and large - the interchangeable ear caps ensure a personalized fit to each individual user. They are also made from ultra-soft silicon the provide the utmost comfort for prolonged listening. Tight Sealing Foam Sleeves

Made from slow recovery foam, this pair of sleeves is a comfortable alternative to the rubber ear caps. A snug seal is created by these foam sleeves when they are compressed between the fingers before being inserted into the user's ear canal. After the earphone is held in place for a few seconds, the slow-recovery foam expands to create a secure and tight fit. Premium Metal Housing

Housed in superior metal, these earphones are shielded from unnecessary vibration for accurate sound transmission, resulting in smooth bass response and clear mid-to-high range tones.

Always Ready to Go Sleek Metal Carrying Case

Made of high-quality metal witha luxurious touch, the compact carrying case incorporates a cable bank which provdes an easy solution for neat cable winding and headphone storage. It even includes a storage compartment for the foam sleeves. The hard case exterior also provides additional protection for teh headphones while not in use. Symmetrical Cables

The SHE9850 headphones have symmetrical cables to prevent them from tangling, and provide for easy listening. Flexi-Grip Design

The soft flexigrip material that the body of the hadphones is sheathed in, enhances its performance and extends its durability. It protects the cable connection from damage that otherwise could occur due to repeated bending of the headphone body from frequent contact with your fingertips when being put on and removed.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)

I'm always on a search for the best headphones and have tried many with varying results, all the way up to premium $300 sets. I cannot tolerate at all any type of in-ear headphone that is simply a plastic, hard ear bud, they are all far too large and uncomfortable (and generally lacking in sound quality as well) but I'm also not enough of an audiophile to really need the premium ones. My previous favorite set of headphones was the Shure E3C, which gave a great balance of comfort, sound quality and price. These go one better by offering even better comfort, stability and a lower price to boot.

Opening the box was a nice surprise...if like me you are tried of plastic that requires box cutters to get into you will appreciate the professional, quality packaging of the Philips SHE9850 which comes in a solid cardboard box that is easy to open and remove the components from. In addition to the headphones, you get 3 sizes of silicon ear buds and one set of memory foam sleeves. Also a clip for the cord, basic instructions and a nice metal carrying case. The case is a bit larger and heavier than most, but it is well designed, slides open easily and includes a spot to carry an extra set of ear buds. This is a welcome feature if like me you change them according to use. I prefer silicon for basic use, but the memory foam for more active use to stay in place better.

I was very pleased with the comfort and stability of these headphones. They are slightly angled to better insert into the ear canal and once in, I found they stayed very solidly in place when I moved around. I have very small ears, and often have comfort issues, these were some of the best I've tried so far.

Sound quality I found to be excellent. A little more response at the lower ranges would have improved it a bit, but overall I would rate them at least as good as the Shure's, and better for a lot of my music. The sound is very full and rich, and could compare with some headphones in the $200+ range. Noise reduction as well was excellent. These definitely are not headphones to wear if you need to hear any peripheral noise! I could barely hear my very noisy clothes washer while wearing these, which is the best test I could do without going on a plane trip.

Overall, these are the best headphones I've used at this price, and I'd recommend them highly. The only thing I wish it had was a mute button, but I've not yet seen a decent set of headphones that has one, so have just come to accept that it's not something easy to do reliably.
