I have been the lucky recipient of 2XL ear buds! And, they were kind enough to send me three pairs to try out. It’s my lucky day!
The two main problems I have with my own iPod ear buds are that the cord is too short for my stationary bike days or that the ear buds will fall out of my ears on run days (I have the standard pair that comes with the iPod Nano).
First, I tried the 2XL Spoke. Basically, there is a gel covering that is supposed to allow for better sound quality and comes with interchangeable gel covers. These did not work for me at all. That gel cover at the end felt kind of weird and I couldn’t keep them in my ears.
Then, I tried the Ratio Ear Bud Wrecking Ball. Cords on these are longer than standard, sound quality was good and I had no problems with them falling out of my ears!
Finally, I tried the Groove. The fit on these is completely different but also worked fine for me.
I tested these products while riding my trainer in the garage. In addition, I took the RATIO’s trail running. The RATIO’s were my favorite of the three pairs, mainly for cord length and comfort in my ears.
I believe if you have certain conditions where you need longer cords or different delivery methods for keeping the ear buds in your ears, these would be a good bet.
You can buy 2XL online with starting prices at $9.99.
