sennheisers are great, but most of the time I prefer akgs when it comes to full headphones, but I think I will check the sennheiser cx300. sounds pretty good in the reviews

mine weren't very expensive and sound awesome.

then again, almost anything would sound better than iPod earbuds (which I still use and love).

These.
 


Philips In-ear surround headphones. Can be had for $15-20 here. Great bass and great sound. The only issue is they tend to mess up after 2 years of constant use. I'm on my 3rd pair, probably going to buy a 4th soon as backup.

I also have Bose in-ear that were $100, but they're a little too heavy and expensive for my usual usage.

ive made a decision a hour ago, I bought these:


 


AKG K324P

and I am blasted to heaven right now. its like being born again sonic-wise!
the bass is incredible but pretty clear, even if you dont use equalizer settings, the bass goes really really low (not too loud, there is just ALL the bass what have been recorded) the highs are brilliant (not shrill, absolutely not, best highs ever heard on in ears, til yet) and the mids are comforting neutral, ot shrill at all. the are soundin ace on beat driven-electronic music and they are sounding ace on guitar driven music (which was a problem with al the headphones Ive ever had, only one genre would be supported really good)
it was the right decision, 40 euros well spent. I can only recommend them!!!

and no, I do not got 1000 bucks for some ultimate ear in ears.

do you want headphones or earbuds?

hey youre in germany no?

when youre ready for real headphones check out sennheiser or AKG (this one's austrian). you should be able to pay less than the rest of us-- or no?

I bought the akg k324p in ear buds!

and I love the K701 from akg, it was an unbelieveable sonic experience listening to tunes with this baby. I really love anything by akg I had my hans on

the germans/austrians seem to be really good when it comes to audio monitoring

I'd like something bomb proof. My earphones get a lot of abuse, I go trough a pair every six months or so. Any recommendations?

Edit: preferably w/ built-in mic and volume control.

Anything like Panasonic's RP-HJE900?

 


They were discontinued, can't find them anywhere.
