    Sennheiser CX300-II replacements(want identical cord length)

    The Nu-Force 700's have great reviews, but they seem to agree that while the bass is darn clean especially for the size and price, that it is not in abundance and the highs are revealing/accurate.....which is something my ears and tinnitus cannot handle.  I unfortunately need a muffled high end...

    Sennheiser CX300-II replacements(want identical cord length)

    In that case no I am not....but I would never wear any headphones like that as that would not be comfortable. I clip my mp3 player to my waist and run the cord up and inside my shirt , then pop the buds out of the collar to my ears with very little slack. Unfortunately the right phone's cord is...

    Not one reccomendation for a durable, bass heavy replacement earbud with an equal length cord?

    Review by 'damagedhearing' on item 'Sennheiser CX300-B Earbuds (Black)'

    Well worthwhile upgrade and not too expensive. Emphasized lower end. My only complaint after using these for the gym for over a year now is that the cord length is different from the split to the buds.(one more than twice as long as the other)

    Review by 'damagedhearing' on item 'Denon AH-D1100'

    First cans and I really like them. No buyers' remorse. Tad bit veiled, but a very non-fatiguing headphone. I use it for BR's and DVD's at night and the speech performance is very acceptable. Emphasized lower end, but not "too" muddy. I also use them for music....listen to' everything' but...

    Sennheiser CX300-II replacements(want identical cord length)

    While according to headrooms freq. resp. graph the Thinksound Rain's are very similar with even slightly more from 20Hz-100Hz, countless reviews state that after personally using them they are actually lacking in the bass department. Many compare to the bass heavy CX300 II's.

    Sennheiser CX300-II replacements(want identical cord length)

    I am very happy overall wtih my inexpensive Sennheiser CX300-II's. I like the slightly, artificially juiced bass levels as these are used in the gym only. I love the comfort of them as well and need that comfort in my new pair. The only gripe I have is I am just fed up with the uneven cord...

    XB500 vs Studio Beats?

    I am new to the game, but I too had a listening session today with the Beats, the Senn 428, Senn 201 and the Sony xb500. Just my opinion, but the Beats sound better overall than the Sony's. Stylish for younger people, but way over priced.(C)(should be $100 or less) The 201's were not very...

    Need help finding right cans for me(first pair)

    Thanks, I hope so too! ......but, I will be powering them with my Denon 1910 7.1ch AVR, not my t.v. The Denon has a decent manual EQ as well to play with.   I hope they impress with music as well, I rarely listen to classical but I do enjoy hearing good voicing from artists like Aretha...

    Worth upgrading my IDT High Definition Audio CODEC?

    I am upgraded. Well, nice for me which has come down to the Audio Technica ATH-M50's or Denon 1100's, with an outside chance of the inexpensive Sennheiser HD280 Pro's. I listen to mp3, cd and flac. (60%-30%-10%) These will also be used for tv/movies, not just music.(50/50)   Equip: ...

    Anyone?  Even the stores that do carry them locally do not allow for any listening sessions before purchasing.

    Worth upgrading my IDT High Definition Audio CODEC?

    I have found myself using my laptop as my source player much more lately. I am about to purchase some nice headphones and I was wondering if I should upgrade my pc sound? Or is the IDT a good one?
