hi im new to this forum so be gentle.

i need to know what is the best in-ear earphones i can use with my psp.

the in-ear earphones must sound great and be able to block out alot of noise as i will be using them every week with my psp whilst going to college on the tube.

they must be cheap, by cheap i mean at least up to 20 to 30 quid max and they must have good build quality as i would like them to last a long time.

i dont care about the styling or looks as long as they perform great im happy

i looked at the soundmagic ones but im not sure

i look forward to reading your replys when i get back

thank you for your help

SoundMAGIC PL-50s are a pretty good choice in the £30ish range, but the only issue is it generally takes a few weeks for them to arrive from wherever you buy them in Asia. A good option for UK buyers is the Klipsch X1 - Klipsch Image X1 Headphones: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo, aka Klipsch Image S2s (you can find a few reviews on here if you search)

Some guys use the Icemat's Siberia headphones as replacement for the original psp headphones.

thank you for your help guys but i would like to know also are there any other makes of in ear earphones i should consider around my price range like sennheisers for example?

If you're thinking of the CX3/4/500, then no.

thanks for your help guys i will get the Klipsch X1 on your recommendation.

Thank you very much

I use Sennheiser CX500's on my PSP - but really only use the PSP to play games. I find the sound kinda tinny, and unless they changed things in a recent update - you can't have mp3's arranged by folders, they all have to be in one folder which is a pain.

The CX500 are actually pretty decent on the PSP - especially for the bass response while gaming. But I suspect they're out of your price range. That said - I would otherwise recommend the meelectronics ai-m9 which a lot of people have reviewed on this forum. They're around $20 on meelec.com - and if you e-mail them directly, will offer international shipping.

You no longer have to email them, there is an international shipping option now. You can get the Ai-M9P for about twenty pounds which have an inline mic which I think will work as a headset with the psp, but I think the klipsch sound better.

Too bad they have to be inexpensive:
