Premium headphones w/ 80GB Zune?!?!?

SMALZ · 01-29-2008, 07:43 PM

I recieved a 80-GB Zune for X-mas and was under the impression that the 80GB zune came with the premium headphones. I got the same headphones that my wife has with her 4 GB zune. Am i mistaken?

Hmm.. Where did you buy it? Was it closed box? If you like Bass in your music, I'd say don't worry about it. They sound good, but sound horrible when you get to a part that really needs bass. Overall, I'd say the non-premiums are better. I have both, btw. I use the old earbuds.

I personally would just buy some after market buds.

i have my skull candy, its has a AA powered bass boost on it for excellent bass, but they are around 70 bucks for a pair but worth it IMO best sound iv ever gotten from any type of head phones

That's weird. Mine came with the premium. check to see if the box was open.

Call MS and tell them about it.

scrizz · 01-30-2008, 12:58 PM

ms might send you a pair of premiums

I got premiums with mine. If you are having problems with Bass make sure you have them fitting right. When I first got mine I hated the sound. Someone told me to try the different sized ear pieces. I found the ones that worked the best and now they are the best sounding ear buds i've ever heard and the bass levels are great.

I got premiums with mine as well. There's a big difference in quality. Make sure you get what you paid for.

CameleonMK · 01-30-2008, 01:56 PM

I'd call microsoft.

Mine came with premiums. they dont fit my ears well. they keep falling out when i walk. The sound quality on them is great, but they just dont fit well (yes i have tried changing the rubber thingies). I prefer the older pairs.

got zune? · 01-31-2008, 01:57 PM

Mine came with the premium one's, they're pretty good, but nothing to write home about. I'd just go pick up some Denon buds, i'm sure you'll be a happy camper after listening to those.
