Try it, then see if what you said makes sense

I have the Shure E2c & E5. Still try and use the PXC250 whenever possible.


The PX100 (on the right) is actually a different design to the PX200/PXC250...

The foam between the 'spokes' leads to the driver. And it does indeed provide no isolation. About the same as the KSC35 in fact.

Im a newbie here and probably shouldn't say this.. I also own the AIWA HP-X121 and think that for their price they arent that bad at all. But they arent doing they're job anymore.. bass crackles.

I own a pair of Sennheiser HD-202's. They cost very little and have excellent isolation. Actually the HD-202's have a lot of bass and highs.. weak middles though. That might be an advantage if you listen to music at 128 kbps because 128 compared to 192 sounds really flat - the extra bass and highs would get some more depth into 128. So the cheap HD-202's wouldn't be a bad choice.. HD-212 although are said to be worth the $ difference to the HD-202's

But hey, im a newbie so I could be wrong ™

The only problem is size! I would have bought the senn 497 if size wasn't an issue...

If I'll pot the PX 200 in my pock while folded, will they fit right? What can I compare them to (cellophane, wallet, glasses)?
Are they strong enough so they won't brake if presser will be applied?
