| | | | | Japanese designed Radius Atomic Bass earphones deliver the highest level of sound quality, superior construction, unrivaled comfort and unparalleled style. If you have small ears, large ears or any size in between, these ultra-light aluminum eabuds are designed to fit comfortably and secure and are as functional as they are fashionable. Radius Atomic Bass earphones are a must have for individuals with an active lifestyle.
The Radius Atomic Bass earphones are tailor made to deliver the bass response that your tunes demand. They are perfect for the slamming bass of hip-hop and dance, but they are tonally balanced for any music style that demands rich, crisp audio fidelity. Precision crafted from ultra-light aluminum, and sporting a gold plated stereo mini-plug, Radius earphones go to the final degree to make sure everything looks and sounds perfect.
New Angle – Behind the Bass
Bass sound waves are longer by nature, so it takes longer for bass energy to really get started. The unique shape of Atomic Bass features a lengthened sound chamber to let those waves develop properly.
While the sound is generated in the stylish bud, the angled tube chamber which sits in your ear canal acts as a tuned port. Penetration is deeper, and so is the rumble. This means clear, deep bass you can feel. Don’t miss the sensation. Finally, most earphones are rated at 16O of impedance. Atomic Bass earphones are rated at 32O, which makes them easier to drive and more efficient. This added efficiency helps to produce enormous sound, and your iPod battery doesn’t have to work so hard to do it.
Your ears are unique and, for many people, the smallest available ear fitting is still too big for their ears. Factor in a variety of ear shapes, and getting the right fit becomes challenging. Atomic Bass earphones can be inserted from three possible angles, and the smallest of the three included fittings is among the smallest available. Three angles times three fitting sizes equals nine possible solutions to getting the most comfortable fit for your ears.
Life can be hard, but today’s lifestyles can be even harder on earphones. Atomic Bass earphones are built to last. The finished joint where the left and right earphones split looks sharp but it’s there to prevent the left and right cables from peeling apart as they do on cheaper earphones.
Here is what experts had to say:
"Audio Performance of the Atomic Bass is intense...It's impressive that these small earphones pack so much punch at such low price" - PC Magazine
“Even users with smaller-than-average ears should have no problem achieving a relatively secure and comfortable fit. I had no trouble getting a good fit with the smallest of these. I found the earphones to be comfortable after more than two hours of wear.” - CNET
“The Radius Atomic Bass were by far the best all-around performers, with full bass and a solid balance from low to high and everywhere in between. The bass very rarely bottomed out or showed any distortion” - Blog Critics
“You will find them a fraction of the cost of comparable models, Radius earphones are budget friendly without sacrificing quality or style.” - ProductReviews.com
“The Radius Atomic Bass certainly has a deep, resonant low end perfect for hip-hop and electronic music, which is difficult to find in affordable earphones.” - NY Metro News
“If you can’t live without your earbuds, go for a pair that not only sound fantastic, but come in some great color options (and can match your iPod!). Our number one pick is the Radius Atomic Bass Aluminum Earphones that come in a plethora of fashion-forward colors. The extremely comfy earphones have a white cord, similar to Apple ones, but the color choices that deck out the earpieces and plug make them a standout. We were amazed at the bass output. These are a stylish must.” – StyleNotes

1 of 5 Great sound - Shoddy workmanship Sunday, December 27, 2009
Dave from Illinois
I was very pleased with the sound quality of these ear buds. It takes a little bit to get a proper fit, but when you do they sound incredible. However, they are not built very well. After 6 weeks the first pair I owned quit working on one side. Radius very quickly and graciously replaced them. 4 weeks later - guess what? The replacement pair quit working too. Radius replaced them again - no questions asked. I couldn't believe it, but soon the third pair quit also. It wasn't as though I treated them roughly. I only used them while studying. I'm quite sure Radius would have replaced them again, but I didn't even bother. I was spending more time at the post office than I was listening to music. Postage was not free. I bought a pair of Griffin Tunebuds for less money. They sound just as good, are much easier to place in your ear, and have lasted over a year. Was this review helpful?  
5 of 5 Great for Kids and small ears! Monday, May 11, 2009
A Customer from Sacramento, CA
I have searched for proper fitting in-ear headphones that my kids can wear. This is the first set that actually fits their little ears (6 years old and 9 years old). The stock description for these is true! The smallest size of the ear bud covers is smaller that any others I have found. This headset sounds great too. The only improvement I would look for is to find them on sale! These were kind of expensive for a kid's headset, but I am still very happy with this purchase. I hope they last!

3 of 5 good sound, poor durability Thursday, April 16, 2009
A Customer from tinley park , IL
After using these headphones pretty gently for a month or so, the wire connector will not stay in the headphone. I see exposed wires and it seems that the slightest yank will destroy them.
they sounded good, though Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Fantastic! Monday, March 02, 2009
RK from Dallas, TX
these are great. they do fit comfortably, great sound for my ipod. you can also insert them under different angles and figure out what works best for your ears - a luxury most earbuds do not offer, especially in this price range.so keep in mind, it may take a minute to adjust these, but once you do they deliver great performance. i was thinking about getting an extra pair.

4 of 5 decent value for the price Saturday, February 28, 2009
Rottweiler from phoenix, az
Good stuff: Looks are awesome, surely a well designed product. Definitely better than most earbuds in this price range.
Bad stuff: If you purchased this one for getting a distinct bass effect, you will be sorry. I tested this one on a variety of bass tracks, and dint find anything special. I had also tested this against other headphones in 30-40$ range, that dint claim they were bass enhancers and dint find a mentionable difference. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Good Product Thursday, February 26, 2009
Jackie from New Creek, WV
I was looking for comfort and a good sound. These fit the bill and the discounted price was an added bonus. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Great but Pinkish Wednesday, February 25, 2009
A Customer from Louisiana
First off forgive this review for being hard to read - I cannot seem to get line breaks to transfer so the writing is separated into paragraphs. This is unfortunate.
These earbuds sound great, are very comfortable, and block outside sounds quite well. Since I hated earbuds so much I was hesitant to spend much on a set, these are inexpensive and quite impressive.
The sound is great. They will get louder than you should want to listen without any distortion. The bass is a little elevated, the mids and highs are somewhat flat, but not disturbingly so. The bass response is great. Overall I was hearing parts I didn't know existed in songs I had heard for years on speakers.
I always hated earbuds because they were uncomfortable and always wanted to fall out. I even got a set of cheapie earbuds with the silicon inserts and they were OK, but these earbuds are way more comfortable and they sound amazing. The earbuds stay put and don't hurt my ears even after an hour of wearing them.
The outside sound isolation is excellent, too. I can put these on with a little music going and close my eyes and the world outside ceases to exist. I wore them walking to a Mardi Gras parade through crowds and lots of noise, only the loudest of which made it to me (this might not be such a good idea if you need to be aware of your surroundings).
The only caveat is the color (referring to the Maroon color). I knew these were described as maroon, and in the videos you can see a maroon look, but in the pictures they looked very red to me on every computer screen I looked at them on. In real life these have a definite pinkish color. I have had several people ask me why I have pink earphones. If people keep asking me that I might paint them or something. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 The Best I've tried... Monday, February 02, 2009
Pat from Columbus, Ohio
Bought these for the price. Yeah, sure, "Atomic Bass". But they are right! Best low end I think you'll find in any earbuds. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Awsome! Saturday, January 31, 2009
A Customer from Houston, TX
These are the best earbuds that I have ever used. The sound quality is really good for the price. I am considering buying a second pair for backup. Was this review helpful?

4 of 5 Two Thumbs Up! Thursday, January 29, 2009
Janet from Yucca Valley, CA
Bought for a teenage audiophile and received the stamp of approval. Cool design, comfortable fit and teen approved colors! Great bargain for the money, shipped on time at the right price. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 Great headphones for the price! Tuesday, January 27, 2009
Pete Moss from Sacramento, CA
These earbuds do produce a lot of bass! They sound really good, but the bass can be a bit "boomy" at times. I did notice that I could hear the impact of my jogging amplified through the headphones, but it wasn't bad enough to disturb the music. Overall, I'm very satisfied with these earphones.

5 of 5 Can't go wrong.. Thursday, January 15, 2009
Chris C. from Belle Harbor, New York
I also have the Shure ear buds. I can't keep them in my ears. These earphones sound great, strong bass, clear treble. Well worth twice the price. I just ordered three more for my wife and kids. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 Best earbuds available Wednesday, December 31, 2008
drummerextreme from N.J.
I have a $100.00 pair of earbuds from Shure and they sound tiney compared to these earbuds. If you get a tight seal the bass is unbelievable compared to other earbuds I have tried. I have already ordered another pair! Was this review helpful?
