[HELP] Which Earphones? UE Super Fi 4/CX 500/RE 2/UE Metro Fi 220

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 

Hello

 

Im thinking of buying a new set of IEMs

 

My current ones are:
Skull Candy Ink'd

 

After listening through my friends CX 300 II, ive decided that i needed a new set since the sound was MUCH BETTER

I loved the bass but i think it was a bit too much

 

Currently i See Sennheiser CX500 on play.com for £15.70 Free Delivery

http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/3509717/Sennheiser-CX500-Headphones/Product.html

Was just wondering if they are real or fake/OEM?

 

Also i see these Super fi 4's on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260506546457&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Only $27.98?

Are these genuine?

 

So im wondering whats the best choice i have over these

-Ultimate Ears Super Fi 4
-Sennheiser CX500
-Ultimate Ears Metro Fi 220

-Head Direct Re 2

 

Any help will be appreciated

 

Thanks

Where abouts are you? You've linked two sites, US ebay and play.com which don't deliver electronics outside of the UK. Of the ones you suggested IMO go with the sf.4. I havent heard the re2 but they're better than the others. $30 should be about the going rate for them so that seems like a good deal.

 

There are others if you want alternatives, a favourite of mine is Visang R02 (ebay) or look at MEelectronics (their own site or amazon), maybe the m6.

 

The only issue I have with the sf.4 is the tips aren't very useful/comfy. Take the tips off the Ink'd before you get rid of them if you can, they may be better.

I live in New Zealand, Just noticed i cannot purchase from play.com

 

Theres also a good pair of CX500 on ebay thats apparantly genuine according to trader

Ill maybe buy CX 500 for now but still considering
