Summary: Badly Constructed Headphone
Review: The pulsating bass feature is interesting. Unfortunately, the headphone falls apart before the novelty wears off.

The problems mostly arise from bad connections in the wiring. The wire from the "vibration on/off switch" to the headphones goes bad first. In my case, the right side of the headset shorts out. Only the "pulsating bass" feature seems to be affected. If you can bend the wiring so the bass works again, loud crackling noises persist.

I've returned my Kinyo headphone twice now and have gotten replacements. Kinyo hasn't given me any problems about this so far, but they DO NOT pay for shipping. You're likely to pay more for shipping the product back for a replacement than for the actual headphone itself. My warranty expires in two months...so I have another chance to ship it back again when it breaks.

Do yourself a favor and look for headphones elsewhere. Kinyo still has a lot of research and development issues to work through.
