I was advised to get some kind of anti-radiation headphones. There is some controvery that the use of bluetooth and wired headsets and cell phones can contribute to physical changes in your brain and hearing. You can read all about it online on your own, but I am here to tell you about the quality of these headphones (earbuds, actually).
Doing some research, the DefenderShield seemed like a good choice. It was designed by a telecom engineer, and audio quality is a big deal to me. The reviews were pretty good, too, so I took a chance and bought them. When I got them, I anxiously hooked them up to my laptop and opened iTunes to play some songs and test them out. I was expecting a real hollow sound, but BOY was I surprised!The bass response was excellent, as was the treble. I even compared them to my Sennheiser earbuds, which now sounded tinny compared to these.
Now there's one caveat. You have to remember that this is different technology than traditional headphones/earbuds, so some songs do sound a bit hollow but it really wasn't too bad. I even went as far as to order another brand of anti-EMR earbuds to compare......and they were horrible! Those were very hollow-sounding, but they were half the price, too. You get what you pay for.
Downsides. I can only think of one, and it's similar to other reviews. The earbuds do fall out more easily than traditional ones. BUT...these come with 3 sizes of rubber ear adapters. Try all three. Also, the right size can make a difference in the sound quality, so do try all the sizes.
To sum it all up, don't even think twice about this. There is a reason they are almost double the price of all the others; they are the best. Just get these. You won't be disappointed. And you'll be saving your brain from all that EMR.

Magnets in Your Ears - Why Did They Do That?
Don't buy this if you want to lower your total electromagnetic field exposure. This is marketed as an "Anti Radiation Headset" and indeed it does have air tubes from about your chest to your ears. That's probably progress, but for some strange reason they have put magnets in the backs of the ear pieces to hold them together when you aren't using them.I think that most people buying this would not want to add an unneeded magnet 1" from their brain. The magnet screws up the whole point of buying this headset. Why in the world did they do this?I have a gaussmeter (UHS2, from AlphaLab) which cost me US$ 289 (way better than Cornet in what it does, since the Cornet doesn't measure magnetic fields any closer in terms of accuracy). My bedroom measures 0.07, no more than 0.10, 0.15 mG, which is VERY LOW (most houses have less than 0.5, which is ideal). When I approach one of the headphones above and close this EMF meter the number goes as high as 0.5, 1 or even 2 mG, which is already extreme.I guess they forgot the fact there are three kinds of EMFs: RF, magnetic and electric fields... and magnetic fields are considered even worse than RF.Also the hadphones kept falling off my ears, and my face is 100% normal size. Either that or after a while it bothers me, as if there was a little more pressure than usual (we need to force them into our ears to avoid falling). These aren't comfortable as the Earpods, not even CLOSE.The manual is useless (so was customer service when asked) since it explains nothing about how can we remove the "rubber noise isolating ear tip" or the "rubber ring" that come with the product. It comes with additional sizes of these two, and a peg to hold God knows what.The manual says there are three sizes, the default that comes with it is "M", but there's also "S" (smaller) and "L" (larger).I won't risk damaging these since I tried taking out and the rubber won't budge. If I force this thing to come out I have no doubt it will harm the product. I was going to replace to check if comfort would improve (which I seriously doubt).Also the sound quality is not great... I noticed right away it leaves something to be desired.I'll stick with wi-fi/bluetooth off (and/or Airplane mode) and some distance of my products to avoid high magnetic fields... investing in air tube headphone is a waste of time, especially considering they are quite expensive. I paid 64.99 in these thinking they were the best in the market... Huge mistake.
