Since the day I’ve started using my MP3 player, there’s a problem and one problem only that I’m facing on a regular basis, whenever I dare to listen to music. My earbuds are just driving me crazy and I can’t stand them anymore! I realize that I’m ridiculous when trying to stuff those little things into my ears and I can’t blame those who are immediately starting to laugh at me, as I’d do the same if I were them. The bad thing is that, no matter how hard I try, there’s no chance for me to actually succeed at keeping those earbuds where they belong for more than ten minutes.



And I know I’m not the only with such a problem. That’s why I’m grateful to those who came up with a great idea, the customizable earbuds designed and developed by Koss, a reliable manufacturer of affordable eargear.



This new type of earbuds is quite impressive, as the squishy covers that are available in different sizes can now be thrown away. They’re history, no more, no less! The CC_01 earbuds are provided with expandable and contractible tips. This means that, in order to adjust them, the only thing you have to do is to just turn the metal screw top placed on the back of your earbuds, and the tips will adjust to fit your ears. It’s simple and ingenious, isn’t it?

It’s a little bit surprising that a manufacturer like Koss developed such expensive headphones, as the CC_01 are available for purchasing for approximately 150$, which is more than a lot. Hopefully, the high price will be the justified by the quality of the sound. As far as the availability is concerned, the earbuds are expected to start selling sometime in March. And if they will surely fit your ears, I’m not sure they will fit your financial possibilities also!
