Product Description
The PMX 80 Eco is part of a series of sport headphones from Sennheiser that is packaged in bio-degradable materials to minimize the carbon footprint of the user. This marathon and gym favorite uses a verticle transducer system on a neckband that floats to keep the headphones in place during a strenuous workout. A single sided cable can eliminate cable tangles while the supplied clothing clip keeps the cable secure. The PMX 80 is sweat-proof and rinsable under running water for the ultimate in usability and durability. The rear side of the neckband is coated with a reflective stripe only visible in low-light conditions for your safety. How do they sound? You may just forget that you own home audio speakers. The Basswind system delivers clean, clear bass and the verticle transducer system channels high quality audio to the ear for an optimum listening experience. They are cold-weather tested for use indoors or out. Built-tough with a 2 year warranty.

Perfect workout companion August 14, 2010

I've tried a few different varieties of headphones for working out and my last pair was an ear bud set that I couldn't keep seated correctly for the life of me. While I do think the sound quality isn't on par with a pure audiophile pair in the same price range, the specific usage characteristics are excellent. If you're looking for headphones to workout in, these are the best pair I've ever owned without a question.
 Great item, bad price August 8, 2010

I love the headphones. But beware. Amazon comments popped up when I was researching this and indicated that the "eco friendly" version sold by Blueproton was a newer model. So I popped for an extra $15 plus more shipping thinking it was a new release from the maker. Wrong. It's the same as the other PMX80 II headphones that sold for less. Plus, it did not come in the pictured eco friendly packaging. It came in a giant clam shell plastic bubble.
It's a great product. Durable, comfortable, and sounds decent. I use them for running. I would highly recommend you buy these, but would recommend you shop for the best price and ignore Amazon's suggestion of the eco friendly as being somehow different. Go with the cheapest.
FINALLY "RUNNING" HEADPHONES!! LOVE EM!! July 24, 2010

I discovered these headphones a few years ago at (the now out of business) Circuit City. I bought them on a whim and spent $60. They are great headphones and the sound quality is unmatched. Brilliant mids and highs with deep rich bass. They also fit well. Since that first pair, I bought the next few from Amazon at a significant savings. They last me about 6 months and then need replacing. (I use them all the time for running and sweat a lot) This most recent pair that I bought didn't fit quite right and only lasted a month. I will probably buy another pair regardless because they are just that good and I am assuming that I got the one lemon in the bunch. I still strongly recommend these headphones.

This is a newer model of the PMX80 which has 10 reviews elsewhere on this site. Based on those reviews and reviews of several similarly priced items, all of which were extremely helpful, and the fact that this was a newer model, I selected this item. I am very pleased with it. I have tried several different kinds of headphones during cardio and other workouts all of which were dismal failures. They fell out on their own, or my hands would catch the cord and yank them out, or the seal was so weak that I had to pump the iPod volume up to max to get the music to a level that I could hear during a workout. These headphones suffer none of those problems. They stay in during both cardio and weightlifting workouts. They seal very well and block out other noise decently so that I could have a more appropriate volume.
If you are interested in sport headphones, you may be also interested in exercise clothing that facilitates wearing them and I recommend the Scottevest Tshirts which have a zippered shoulder pocket that held my iPod and enabled me to keep the headphones cord short so that it did not get caught by any arm movements. These two items in combination eliminated a number of workout-related nuisances and boosted my enjoyment considerably.
