UltraFocus 6000
To get the most from your portable audio device, you need headphone technology that squeezes every ounce of performance from the MP3 format. Polk presents the high performance, super comfortable UltraFocus 6000 in-ear Active Noise Canceling headphones. They feature superior audio technology, like Optimized Active Tuning, that uses ANC technology to enhance performance, and Active Dynamic Balance drivers tuned with the same process used for our full-sized traditional loudspeakers. These tiny, comfortable, durable drivers reveal the full range of the audio spectrum, with surprising detail and deep, driving bass effects. Close your eyes, relax, tune out the world and tune in your music!
A Great Performance Requires UltraFocus
If you could jam a pair of home audio loudspeakers into your ears, this is what it would sound like! That's because the UltraFocus 6000 is the most advanced in-ear Active Noise Canceling headphone available. Unlike other ANC headphones, Polk has engineered an Optimized Active Tuning system that works in tandem with ANC technology to boost headphone performance into the realm of the astonishing. It creates an interior "soundstage" that is the closest you can get to the performance of a full-on home audio system. With two complementary noise canceling technologies, coupled with Polk’s high performance sound technology, the nearly weightless UltraFocus 6000 can really put you in “The Zone.” And with custom fitted in-ear silicone ear pieces, the UltraFocus 6000 feels much better than jamming home audio speakers into your ears.

Very portable, tangle free design and amazing voice quality for music. It is the best built in ear headphone i have owned in 3 years.
Weaknesses:
Microphone works only with noise cancellation and sensitivity is average. Invariably I am forced to remove the headset and speak directly into the phone. Noise cancellation is above average.
Review:
I bought this headset at an airport Inmotion store in the US. Overall, for an in-ear headphone, the sound quality (both for music and voice conversations) is second to none. I really wish the microphone (for phone conversations) was more sensitive.

The earphones have solid build construction with a very well thought out cable design. The sound quality is amazing, it does not lack bass but no so much that it overwhelms the overall sound.
Weaknesses:
Only works in Active mode and no volume control
Review:
Polk Ultrafocus 6000: Design: Very high quality controller, intuitive flat cable, tangle free design. My complaint is the on and off button is stiff and the slider button design, it takes some work. This earphone only works in Active mode and does not have volume control Noise Isolation: With the right sized ear tip, this earphone isolates very good. I tried the various tips that came with the earphones, but ultimately used my comply foam tips. Once the tips expanded inside the ear, all sound was noticeable quieted. Of note, these came with a lot of ear tips to try. Noise Cancellation: There is a white noise hiss when turned on. The NC worked much better than the 8000s in reducing the sound of constant noises. I used these at work, in meetings, driving, and at home. There is a button that gives you an option to mute the music and listen to whoever is speaking to you. It does its job as intended. However, I must point something out. When you engage this button, it amplifies the surrounding sound, which makes the sound louder than it actually is; so when you turn this button off, it gives you a false sense that the NC is working extremely well. I tried this every day at work, especially in meetings. Sound: I have zero complaints on the sound. Everything from highs, mids, to lows blended very well. I listened to music from all genre’s which range from classical to rock. Conclusion: I wore these earphones about 4 - 5 hours a day, every day at work, on 3 hour roadr trips, and home. Near the end of week two, the batteries finally gave up. If this headset had a volume control and worked in Passive mode, it would have been even better. I highly recommend these for travel and work settings.

Amazing sound from such a small package
Weaknesses:
Could use an over the ear piece. The $99 headphones with the over the ear harness that polk sells are not even in the same league as these.
Review:
Fantastic set of headphones. I had to use another set of head phones after using these and I kept thinking there was something wrong with the audio and changing the controls. I put these back in and the problem was cured. Just amazing.

Tangle free design, well built, great bass
Weaknesses:
Not ideal for jogging or moving around a lot, wish there was removable jacks for different lengths. The on/off switch does not clip on well for me, and could use rechargeable battery.
Review:
Tangle free design makes it easy to store these in your bag and just go, they deliver great sound in a small package and are very well constructed. I use these all the time while im walking or at the coffee shop
