What you should know:
The earphones come with the usual assortment of silicon eartips, but kudos to Nocs for throwing in an extra pair of each size. You also get a two-pronged adapter for airplane use, a clip (to attach the cord to your clothing), and a nice carrying case that has a micro-suede finish.
The one feature bonus here is the integrated inline remote and microphone, and you'll notice that the NS400's packaging is stamped with the Made for iPhone, iPod, and iPad icons. That means the remote is designed to work with iOS devices. You can still use the microphone for making calls on other phones, but the remote probably won't fully function.
Nocs, a fairly new Swedish company, has been quickly growing its line of earphones, which now includes more than half a dozen models.
What it offers:
While they're a little pricey, the Nocs NS600 Crush are comfortably lightweight earbuds that sound very good and offer strong bass performance.
The advantage:
The Nocs NS600 Crush are lightweight, comfortable, and offer very good sound with strong bass. They also have an Apple-friendly inline remote/microphone and ship with a nice carrying case.
The unfavorable:
These headphones are somewhat expensive; the thin cord is prone to tangling (compared with headphones with a flat-cord design).
The price:
$149.95
