Does the Yuin PK3 have more bass than the NEW iPod earbuds?
I don't want to break my bank, but would like an earbud with better sound quality than the earbuds that came with the 6G iPod but with at least the same amount of bass (I listen to a lot of bass heavy music).
Thanks!

I find the PK3s much better than the iBuds. The sound is much clearer, great bass without sounding to crap
Every time I buy someone an iPod now, I give them PK3s as well.

Would you guys say that the Yuin PK3 is also better sounding than the Sennheiser MX400 or MX500?

I haven't tried them to compare, but of all the buds I have tried I prefer the PK3, I even prefer the PK3's over the Shure E2Cs I had, despite the poor isoliation since hte PK3 is a bud, they're sound blows the Shures out the window. This is a $40 bud vs $80 IEMs.
Edit: I will see if I can do some listening with iBuds and PK3s tonight.
What sort of setup have you got? I am into my Bass as well, I like the Super Fi 3's for $50, they are fantastic, take a while to get used to the fit, but have great isolation and thumping bass  (note I do use an amp).

Also, the PK3 response really well to EQing the bass up. They can really slam if you're a serious basshead like me.
