Kicker EB71
$30.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Wide frequency range enables dynamic, versatile listening - 29Hz to 19.5kHz spectrum provides full support of pop, rock, classical, hip-hop and electro genres. Multiple ear tip sizes accommodate users of all types - XS to L components appeal to users of all age from either gender. Cloth-woven cable design is excellent - significantly less prone to tangling than standard rubber-coated counterparts.
The Cons:Unit is somewhat lacking in terms of low-end frequency presence - similar noise-isolating models from Altec Lansing and Koss provide better bass response.
Kicker seems to want the EB71 to become not only a household name, but an office name and gym name as well--that's because these earbuds (or "in-ear monitors", as Kicker calls them) are designed to be worn all day and anywhere.

Four soft silicone tips (including an exclusive small set) are included for users to choose their own comfortable fit, reducing strain irritation of the ear. A PVC-coated, 47.24 inch long cord allows flexibility and movement, and its nickel-plated stereo minijack can be plugged into nearly every audio device, including MP3s, iPhones, laptops, computers, etc. On the subject of audio, the EB71 boasts Kicker bass and full-range sound from 10mm speakers with neodymium magnets. Blue, pink, black, gray, and white colour options are available.
Model Variations
Kicker's EB71M model includes, in addition to the above, several notable upgrades (among them: price). Noise isolating and superior sound quality give the EB71M a step up, along with a microphone that can be adjusted up and down the cord via clip. The cord itself is a durable TPE-jacketed cable with a boosted length of 53 inches, and sports a multifunction button that can play, pause, or skip current music tracks, or switch the microphone and earbuds into phone call mode instantly. However, the EB71M does not ship in any other colour but black.
