Westone Earphones

Have you had a chance to take a peek at the latest and greatest from Westone – the Westone 4R? If not, now is definitely the time. Coming from Westone, you already know the 4R is going to be something to write home about for sure, especially if you forgot to include it in your letter to Santa! But as for what you’ll actually be writing?

First, you’ll likely jot down the specs: 118dB @ 1mW sensitivity, 4 symmetrically balanced armature drivers, TrueFit Technology, a generously-sized 50” removable cable, 31 ohms, sleek style, and of course, even more. And even with these phones being oh-so-fresh, the reviews are already rolling in, and we anticipate many more once everyone has had a real chance to enjoy them after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

If your presents this year didn’t include a new set from Westone, don’t sit around sulking for 12 more months. Make a resolution to put your holiday cash toward buying something you’ll enjoy every day, whether you’re relaxing on the couch, concentrating on work, or letting your favorite gym playlist carry you through the last mile on the treadmill. They’re comfortable, have superior symmetry and the Epic removable cables will even resist tangles – these are the earphones for the job!

We’re excited to see what you think of the new Westone 4R, and hope you’ll share your review with us on this most impressive set. The more people in the world listening through high-quality earphones, the happier a place it will be!

At Earphone Solutions, we fully recognize that we are only a part of what makes us one of the best earphone retailers. We think we’re an important part, but still just a part! After all, we couldn’t be the best at offering high-quality earphones at a great price if companies including Shure, Westone and Klipsch didn’t produce those earphones in the first place. We also couldn’t beat Amazon’s prices if Amazon didn’t exist in the first place!

But what we really couldn’t do is provide people with such an amazing, thorough, diverse variety of feedback without you. We truly mean it when we say the knowledge, dedication to quality sound and willingness to help others that our customers bring is a huge, integral part of what makes us a premiere destination for earphones. The product reviews you’ll find at Earphone Solutions, all 2,500+ of them and counting, help others make an informed decision and learn more about what they should be looking for. Read enough reviews and you can go from Earphones 101 to advanced classes in no time, so in short…Thank You!

What you may not know is that in addition to the reviews you see on our site, we are the first online high-end earphone retailer to give you the option to ask a specific question about any of the products we offer and get answers not only from our tech support team, but also the Earphone Solutions community! We will always try to answer any and all questions you might have, but we also invite others who have purchased the same earphones you have questions about to share in their experience. These are real people who are really using these earphones and can provide a real world perspective on how well they are working for them in a variety of settings. So we can ask Jim if they’re good for the gym – ask Olivia if they’re good for the office – ask Ron if they’re good for running!

You get the answers you need, and we consider all the information we receive to better categorize our best earphones by lifestyle and provide more well-rounded feedback in the future. It’s a beautiful system, and we’re grateful for how helpful you’ve all been, how many questions we were able to solidly answer, and how much we all help each other learn every day. Thanks for joining us on this journey to the best sound possible for the most people. It may be a small revolution, but it’s ours!

Is there a special teen on your holiday shopping list that has an eye for smart design and an even better ear for it? A nice new set of earphones would make the ideal stocking stuffer – even better than oranges and socks! We have put together a collection of our Top 4 Best Earphones for Teens, all designed to perform and comfortably fit smaller ears, with a consideration for price as well. All high-rated earphones, our list includes Shure SE215, Shure SE315, a-Jays Three and the perfect entry-level set for Westone, the Westone 1.

As with a gift you buy for any teen – or someone of any age, really – one of the most important things to consider is how well they will take care of it. As someone who always respected my belongings, even as a young child, I know firsthand how good it feels to be trusted to properly care for something. If the teen you’re shopping for also respects their belongings and appreciates that quality earphones don’t grow on trees, spending more will not only treat them to better-sounding tunes, but give them an opportunity to prove that they deserve your trust.

If your teen is like most, they possess an ever-expanding collection of music that can range from classical to hip-hop and beyond. With the internet at their fingertips in a way it wasn’t for many of us, they have an unprecedented exposure to all types of music, and an enviable opportunity to discover new talents and their own personal taste at a very young age. They also often have the best multimedia players available, making them an ideal candidate for the best earphones through which to listen to all that great music! Ah, to be a teen today. Hope they recognize how musically good they have it.

It isn’t every pair of earphones or headphones that earns a 5-star rating from more than 30 reviewers. It also isn’t every pair of earphones or headphones that leaves people saying they are “A Gate To The 7th Dimension,” “Music Heaven,” and the “Best Universal In-ears I’ve Ever Heard.” Think it’s only diehard Westone fans saying these things? Not quite! One reviewer titles their release “Westone Finally Wins Me Over.” So what is this magical pair of earphones that has everyone singing its praises? We’ll give you a hint: It comes packed with four balanced armature drivers, a three-way crossover network and little “4” on the side of each bud. Yeah, we’re not exactly making it tricky, especially if you read the title! We’re talking about the Westone 4 – one of the “Big 8” at Earphone Solutions.

At Earphone Solutions, we are audiophiles just like you. We can’t wear to tear open the packaging on a new set of phones, test it against all our favorite music, compare notes and repeat. We give them a listen, have our best friends give them a listen, reach out to fellow audiophiles to see what their initial impressions are, and so forth. Sometimes reviews are mixed, sometimes not. For the Westone 4, reviews were not very mixed at all. Everyone at least kinda loved them, even those who expected not to.

We always want you to make the best earphones decision for your needs, preferences and ear shape and size. We understand that quality earphones are an investment, and that even if money is no object, you want a perfect pair the first time. To make that right decision more easily made, we have created categories of the best earphones for specific activities, including everything from “best earphones for running” to “best earphones for yoga & meditation.” And for as much as some of these ‘bests’ vary from activity to activity, there are a handful of earphones that are simply the best no matter how you look at it. Westone 4s are one of those bests, which is precisely why they landed a secure position in our “Big 8” – our current assessment of the best earphones on the market.

But don’t think this is just us picking personal favorites! We read every review that our customers submit (thank you!), and every review from outside sources we can get our hands on. We also consider the pure capabilities of the earphone at hand, and how well it delivers because of or even in spite of those capabilities. It’s a big picture approach aimed at making it easy to choose a reliably amazing pair of earphones if you don’t know where to begin, will be wearing them for multiple activities, or simply want to experience a set for yourself that some of the most discerning ears have already given a thumbs-up! To be sure, a 5-star rating from any group of 30+ people would be tricky to achieve. But when those are people who really and truly know what to listen for – people who have really trained their ears to pick up on every high, mid, low and subtle nuance – 5-stars shine even brighter.

At Earphone Solutions we are proud to be the largest Authorized Westone Headphones Dealer in the world. After all, Westone crafts some seriously quality earphones, so being the best place to get them is an honor we’re happy to hold! But what does this mean for you? It means a few things: discounted prices, desirable perks with purchase, and most importantly, that when you register your earphones with Westone, they are backed by a  2-year warranty. We don’t anticipate you will have any issues with your earphones, but in the event you do, a 2-year warranty is an important thing to have. It’s also something you deserve when purchasing top-quality earphones, but something you don’t get when shopping with Amazon or eBay resellers.

Among our most popular Westone offerings are the Westone 3 earphones. These carry a near 5-star rating from 189 customer reviews (and counting!), and not to brag, but our customers provide some of the most thorough and helpful earphone reviews we’ve ever seen! Not sure if something is just right for you? You should be able to clear up any questions just a few reviews in. We’re always more than happy to answer your questions as well, but feel truly grateful to have customers who take the time to provide their personal experience with an item in the interest of helping others make the best decision. As for the positive adjectives you can expect to find in review after review for the Westone 3? Those include: best, amazing, exceptional, supreme, great and perfect, among many others. It’s fair to say the Westone 3 is a bit of an overachiever!

In addition to a bounty of helpful reviews to give you confidence in your decision, Westone 3 earphones are also currently on sale for just over 30% off list price at EarphoneSolutions.com, and include a free Westone Amp for a limited time. They’ll also ship the same day you order them, so you don’t have to wait long to ‘hear’ what everyone’s been raving about.
