Well, to answer my own post, I went out today and ended up in TK Maxx. They had Sony MA 100s for £16.99 and MA 300s for £26.99. I pulled the 300s out the box, hooked them up to my Iphone 4 and gave them a try. As cheap as they were I wasnt that keen on them, I know they probably needed a bit...

Hi ,  i posted a few months ago but still havent sorted out some 'phones. So to ask again (please lol) I sort of got a small shortlist,    They are to used with an IPhone 4 (no amps) Also must be comfortable    Sony ZX700 JVC HS-A600 Senn HD439 Would welcome any more to the...

Quote: Sorry, didnt answer you properly about the packaging - go back up to urpoxi post 110 - same as that.  

It was the plastic box that opens in 2 halves, that wasn't too bad but i had a little difficulty getting the actual earphones out of the moulding that held them in place, could have just been me though lol I've been listening to speech (plays ) with them lately and they seem ok now (regarding...

Ordered mine from Amazon UK last week for just under a tenner, I haven't got the best ears but for £10 I'm not going to complain. Wouldn't have liked to paid £50 -60 for them but so far I'm quite pleased with them other than a slight spitty(?) sound to S sounds. Isolation is good enough for...

Looking forward to hearing more about the 449 - not much out there at the moment.

PX200IIs? Quite curious myself about how they compare to the 100s.

Have you checked this thread? http://www.head-fi.org/t/433318/shootout-98-portable-headphones-reviewed-sony-mdr-pq2-and-philips-oneill-sho9560-added-01-02-12 The PX100 II, HD228 and 238 are reviewed in the Tier B $50- 100  section.

Im sure you know already but they need a burn in period, after the first 2 -3 days they'll sound better, dont go thinking you made a mistake until you give them some time.

Ive got PX100 IIs , they're pretty good. I bought some Sennheiser 414 ear pads today, bit lairy in yellow , but more comfortable now I've fitted them. I don't use mine outside home either . Regarding build quality I don't think you need to worry, had mine about a year and half and they're...

Never mind, I've ordered the Radiopaq Jazz. If I dont like them I'll give them to my son

Ok, Ive removed the part of my post as it was about over ears, Ill post that in the appropriate forum, my apologies. Ive seen some Phillips Shh3580 , are they worth a try/?    

  Thanks, any more suggestions?   I should have added that i listen to my radio plays and music on my IPhone 4

    I  mostly listen to radio plays in bed (Im a shift worker so my sleeping pattern can be a bit different to my wifes). I mention this as she sometimes complains that she can hear my headphones when shes trying to sleep.   My current 'phones are Sennheiser PX100 IIs which I quite like...
