Input:
I bought my J3's about a year ago based on all the positive reviews.  I read the blurbs about breaking in the headphones and the notes about high-end register emphasis.  I don't consider myself an audiophile; just a regular person who likes music and lots of different types of music (everything from classical to heavy metal, jazz to latin, country to Disney).  I travel a fair amount and exercise several times a week so my headphones get a lot of use and are an important part of my life.

Here goes for the plusses and minuses:
MATERIALS:  I give the materials 5 stars - The 3.5mm jack is very durable.  I have had not difficulties with it in the least.  The headphone cable is very cool.  From the look only, it seems like the internal wires that make up the headphones are encased in a metal or metal-like sheath and then surrounded by a rubber or silicone casing.  Might sound like a bulky cable but its not in the least.  It is slender and doesnt not tangle easily.  My headset did not come with a clip to hold it in place on my clothing but so far it hasn't seemed like a drawback.  There is a little ring that cinches the indiv cables of the right and left earphones so you can adjust the amount of loose cords quickly and easily.

SOUND: Like a few other reviewers: I agree that the high end treble registers seem emphasized.  Or perhaps the base is lackingK. Not sure whichK  When listening to reedy music,vocal or kids tunes, I don't even really notice the difference.  But put on a few rock-n-roll tunes or something with some serious drumming and it becomes obvious.  I have another pair of headphones (iLuv) that I bought at the airport when I left my J3s at home .  When I listen to both simultaneously (one ear piece from each, alternated in case of stereo differences), I hear a noticeable amount of bass difference in favor of the iLuv headphones.  (To note: the iLuvs do not hit the nice hi-register notes that the J3s do however.)

COMFORT:  With the various sizes of the silicone earbud covers, you can find something that fits well.  I had to mess with a trying a size up or down til I found my perfect fit.  But I can wear them for a Coast-to-Coast flight with reasonable comfort.
Noise-reduction:  These are a passive noise reducers.  The fit of the silicone ear bud is what blocks the noise.  It does a decent job.  When I have my earphones in playing at a medium volume (always concerned about not being aware of my surroundings, esp when out for a jog), I can hear basic noises like cars or peoples voice.  I usually cannot distinguish what they just said but I can hear the sound.  I cannot hear my feet hitting the pavement but I can hear an airplanes engines albeit significantly (Thank God) muffled.

OVERALL: I give these 3-stars.  I wouldnt necessarily recommend them to a friend due to the high register issue.  As far as the quality or feel of these thingsK they are a 5!  I am tempted to try the J4's but the price is daunting for an unknown and the J2's are looking real good too.
