Product Staff Review: Sales/Inoue

Many people enjoy listening to music while running, but regular earphones often fall out during a run, making it difficult to concentrate on the action. That's where the ATH-SPORT1 comes in.
Designed for sports, these earphones feature secure ear hooks that stay in place, no matter how intense your movements. Putting them on takes a little skill, but once you get used to it, it's easy. The fit is stress-free, with no feeling of hooks catching on your ears. They won't hurt your ears, even after extended use. In addition to the standard eartips, these eartips also come with textured eartips. These eartips enhance external sound, making them perfect for outdoor runs. They're water-resistant, so they're resistant to sweat and rain, and are washable for easy cleaning.
As for the sound quality, it's as expected from Audio Technica. There's none of the muddy feeling that's common with low-priced earphones, and the sound quality is tight and the sound field feels wide. While functionality tends to be emphasized when it comes to sports earphones, the sound quality seems good enough for everyday use as well.
