Hi!

Which one do you think is better.
I'm about to buy one of these three:

The TC20 (OVC?)

Soundwise.co.uk X3 Canal Earphones

M8 (?)

Soundwise.co.uk -- EH18 sound isolating earphones

or the:

LMX-E630 (Cresyn)

Soundwise.co.uk -- High quality earphones

I read TC20 has a weaker bass.
Well, it must be better than my current one

E3139 - SteelSeries Siberia In-Ear Headphones White - Scan.co.uk

this las earphone is really rubbish. hence the price.

So please help to chose one of those three there.

11.5mm Cobalt

9mm NdFeB

9mm Mylar Magnet

What's your budget OP?

Those are some seriously random headphones/unknown headphones.

For ~£20-30 you can probably get CX300s or EP630s. If you don't need isolation, the Yuin PK3s would be great.

i heard a lot of good stuff about the cresyns... although now nobody knows them anymore, since they're pretty old...

the first one exactly looks like an OVC TC20.
I chose first on by the way, and got it yesterday.

The only difference is that I got just an OEM (no box or any accessories). and the there is just TC20 on the cable. no OVC mark.
other than that I think it's pretty much the same.
Unfortunately it lacks bass. as the Mylar x3, or the OVC.
need to try it with an portable amp. I've yet to buy one first

firstly I was trying to change the headphones I linked for at the bottom of the first post. That is a really awful sounding one.

I'm going to buy all the first three headphones. Just to try them out. I've already bought the first one.


Someday I'm going to get a pro earphones. Don't what that will be though.
First I'm just trying out different brands. Starting with theese small ones.
(my first isolating earphones was a little white panasonic. I liked it, used it for a year maybe for two.

I actually bought this TC20 off from ebay.
on half price.

I wouldn't buy it otherwise
