I listen to my iPod while I work and had gotten sick of always removing my earphones to speak to people. No more. Now I just mute the music and hear the outside world.
Its such a brilliant idea I'm amazed no one thought had thought of it earlier.
Very good

I work at a local newspaper, where I listen to my favorite tunes on my iPod while I'm designing ads on my computer. However, when someone wants to speak to me, I've had to remove my Ultimate Ears Super.fi 5 pros in order to hear what it is they're saying. Up until now! What a simple concept, but absolutely brilliant: enable the listener to briefly mute the music and listen to "the outside world" while still retaining the optimum seal & listening experience of the earphones. Money well spent and highly recommended.
By the way, Earphone Solutions' lightning fast delivery & service is second to none!

I bought and used these on a flight last night with my E2C's and they worked great. All the cords can become a hassle if you don't have them wrapped up properly but that's a small price to pay for the convenience of not having to take off your headphones to listen to an announcement.

This works well- just plug it in and it works. I'm using it with etymotic 6's. My only regreat is that its kind of big and heavy and has a long cord. Ihave to use 2 cord wraps to keep the lenth under control. But this thing really works. Service was great, quick delivery
