Hi all, I've been wondering for a while, have you also seen those "copies" of Sennheiser MX500? You often find them with cheap MP3 players, I even saw some for sale in a street market today! They are white, no foams, have a "hype looking" cable with a visible metal mesh. The earbuds look...

How do the HD565 Ovation perform compared to the HD555? I have a pair of 565 but the 555 seem much more popular here

yes but the 888s are 2x or 3x the price

ok so, the sonys or the mx500 (no earclips nor canalphones) does anyone know the MX750? how good (or bad) are the MX550 compared to the MX500?

Yes I considered those, but I'm not looking for canalphones I may buy some soon but not right now, and that day I'll have to check between the ep630, the plug, the sonys and maybe some others

Yes I'd prefer something small like earbuds I'm actually considering buying a new pair of MX500 (or maybe MX550, and I even saw MX750 in a shop but never heard of them)

Hi, I'm looking for new earbuds, cheap ones I had a pair of Senns MX500, and some cheap Koss, but both are out of order now. What would you advice for this pricerange?

I can get the 1000 for 80€ is it worth it? I already have a senn hd565 ovation, if the philips sounds similar I don't think it's any use for me

maybe I've got a translation problem by earphones, I meant things you plug in your ears (like my (RIP) sennheiser MX500), maybe you call that earbuds or earplugs

ok thanks for the suggestions are the 890 not produced anymore? I was looking for those but didn't see them on the pricelist what about earphones? are some worth something? I'd also like to try in canal ones, I never tried, how good are the ones from philips?

Hi all, I have special prices for Philips stuff, but since I haven't been browsing this forum at all for a few months, I have no idea what is worth it or not. Both my headphone and earphones are currently out of order (the headphones need a new cord, and the earphones passed away after a...

Sennheiser.nl's technical service is asking me something like 23€ for the cable, excludinv VAT and certainly shipping

yep I did that last friday, I hope I'll get a reply this week

the only shop I found today had a replacement cable, for 30€ what's sennheiser's price?

aaah, bad luck my actual cable has a 1/8" and I like it that way

OK thank you, Can you confirm me that the plugs are 100% comptible? By checking sennheiser's website, it seems that my 565 and the 600 use the same cord (same reference) but the 650's is different

Hi, My old beloved HD565 has problems since yesterday, the right channel has no sound. When I move the connector on the headphone, it comes back. The problem comes from the cord, not the headphones, because when I switch the connectors the problem is then on the left channel. Where...

I don't agree on this point. Sensitivity is often related to dB/volt So if your impedance is lower, you send more power in your headphones, per volt. (P=U²/R) dB/watt is much more revealing, but you can't fool people as much with this unit

I'm not sure about that less ohms draws more current, for the same voltage swing

I just saw that the new models (MX550 and K14P) are 16ohms, and not 32 like the MX500 Can this be a problem for a small mp3 player?

nobody knows the AKG?

ok, sorry for the confusion. so yes, I'm looking for earbuds. I'm not so interested in the Koss since I want something I can throw in my bag with the mp3 player, and that doesn't take too much room... I've been told about the AKG K14P, and the senn MX550 how good are those?

Why would I be looking for canalphones? I doubt there's something worth it in my pricerange. My last ones were MX500s, no canalphones.

Hi, I owned a pair of Senn MX-500 for a couple of years and was satisfied with them. But since they ended in a snowball after a small fall when skiing, I'm now looking for new ones. Theyr only use will be portable audio, like in the train, or during sports. At home, there's my Senn HD565...
