English is not my native language... so... beware !!!
Intro (you can skip this if you don't have time: ) :
__________________________________________________ _________
In a few days I'll buy Creative Zen or Sony A818... now I already have Pioneer Se-cl30's... before them I had mx100 that came with my old iRiver T30... so they were significant improvement... balanced, very clean, perfect treble and reasonably detailed - but midds and bass are very bad, nasal or even non existing... still way better than mx100's...
Now I know that A818 comes with ex-82 (same as ex-85 and similar but bit inferior to ex-90 -metal casing and staff)... still many reviews seriously criticize their performance with highs... and I don't want to sacrifice highs... crisp, rich highs and details are a must for me...

Main Part:
Now, I need something better from Pioneer SE-CL30's... I need very good detailed (never enough: ) and clean in-ear headphones without big sacrifice on highs, mids, lows, bass, trebble quality etc... I have %50 discount card for one local store and this is all they have:
Now, I have a choise between:
1. Sennheiser CX500,
2. Sennheiser CX400,
3. Sennheiser CX300,
4. Creative EP630.
I heard EP630 before and I HATE them... way too bassy = bad highs... not much details too... can I expect anything better from Sennheiser's (especially from CX500)... How much improvement will I get over Pioneer Se-Cl30's (if any?)... are they a worthy upgrade for SE-Cl30's...
I don't have money for anything more than this... so please, don't suggest Etymotic's and stuff 'couse I'll start crying
