Monster Jamz Earphones Monster Lil’ Jamz Earphones 

Originating as a company that specialized in high
performance audio wires, Monster Cable has evolved into a competitive headphone
manufacturer. Their lines of earphones are modern with a “street edge” that
professionals and consumers alike rejoice over. Continuing their innovative streak,
Monster Cable has unveiled the Monster Jamz and Lil’ Jamz in-ear headphones.

Monster Jamz and Lil’ Jamz are constructed of a single,
solid metal housing with a chrome finish. Consequently, the cast delivers sound
with little resonance or vibration, remitting a “cleaner” accent. Likewise, the
single-billet housing and earpiece prevents the interference of ambient noise,
while limiting the leak of sound. Similar to other high end earphones, the Jamz
line uses passive noise cancelling as opposed to active, meaning lower production
costs and ultimately sticker price. In addition, the housing of the Jamz
earphone adds some significant weight to the unit, while the Lil’ Jamz to a
lesser extent; ergo they are not the best for an active lifestyle. On the other
hand, the chrome finish does strengthen the scratch and corrosion resistance. They
were one of the first pair of earphones that I didn’t actually have to worry
about breaking, which is definitely a bonus.

Similarly, the wire is reinforced with a thick “strain
relief,” complementing the construction of the ear set unit. Monster Cable
delivers on the indestructible aspect of the earphones, as well as performance.
In addition, Monster earphones are some of the only that are equipped with 24k
gold contacts. I am not sure if they make a huge difference in performance, as they
do on cost and advertisement purposes. They promise maximum signal transfer,
but regardless, it’s nice to say that your earphones are constructed with gold.
Furthermore, the earpiece themselves are made of a soft rubber that fit for the
most part, securely, keeping in mind the additional weight of the Jamz model.

Both the Jamz and Lil’ Jamz offer a boosted and clear sound.
The first aspect to look for is how high you must turn the volume up to reach
the desired sound; fortunately I didn’t have to. Both models perform well with
vocals and treble, the only significant difference was the bass. Jamz
outperforms the Lil’ Jamz model on the bass punch; if that’s a major factor you
should consider purchasing the Jamz unit. In addition, the earphones come with
an included protective case for added security.

Because there isn’t a significant difference in performance
and prefer the small housing of the Lil’ Jamz, I would choose the Monster Cable
Lil’ Jamz. Lastly, the Jamz sell for around $120 while the Lil’ Jamz sell for
$90.
