GAME CHANGER!!! First earbuds I've given 5 stars
My video review sums up how I feel about the sound signature, the fit, and the soundstage. Although I receive many headphones on Amazon to review, this is the first one I've ever given 5 stars. I'm tough on these types of reviews because most headphones fall flat in the sound department. I have a background in music production and sound engineering, so it takes a little more for the cheaper headphones to impress me. This one impresses! The clarity and depth in the bass is unrivaled by any earbud close to this price. The 60Hz range is beautiful and you'll find yourself re-visiting the tracks that have that lovely sub bass, or a band playing a thick, funky bass line.
When I can pick any earbud to wear around the house or the gym, I choose this one over about 30 others. The controls are simple and like 99% of other bluetooth headphones. The volume controls also work your track skipping functions by holding them down for about 3-4 seconds. There is one power button for on/off, pairing, play and pause.
One thing I note in my video review is my dislike of the included stabilizers. Watch the video and I show you what I use to make these awesome headphones fit perfectly. The only negative you'll read about the QY7 is the weight and staying in your ears. The stabilizers I use in the video completely fix that and you should be able to find them sold separately on ebay/amazon. They came from my Mpow Petrel earbuds and they are also the ones used in the Jaybird Bluebuds X. They solve any fit problem you may have with ANY earbuds you own or will own. I use them for every earbud in my collection now.
UPDATE: After I posted my review today, I noticed someone right before me mentioned these headphones now include new stabilizers. They took a picture and it's the exact same ones I recommend in my review. It's a crazy coincidence that I've been doing this for over a month and they now just started including those exact stabilizers. That's great news and solves everyone's problem of them staying in your ear. Good job of listening to their customers and finding a solution.
If you like warm and bassy headphones with clarity, this is the best I've heard..even at double or triple the price. Feel free to ask any questions or comments. [...]
