    n00b needs new headphones

    Wow... went back and looked at my first thread here. I'm 15 now and a soph in highschool... have the P.1 Cromo which is worth around $900, Gary Fisher PHD which is worth around $3,000, and a $1200 PC I built. $150 Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 speakers. :] Bought the CX300B's, went through the wash...

    IEM or Closed Cans under $100

    Short, sweet, and to the point. I am a basshead, but I like it clean. Not muddy/bloated like I've experienced from Sony MDR-EX71's. I have had Sennheiser CX300B's that barely lacked the bass I wanted, and I could EQ them to sound like I wanted. I want either a closed or canal design...

    Limits of 'phones for MP3s

    I use dbpoweramp and ripped all my music to 320kbps LAME MP3... much less crackles noticeable.. makes my ears hurt much less and seems to have a warmer sound.

    Headphones - The "next cool thing"

    My friends are like... why would you spend $50 on lose little tiny earbuds. I'm like, Hey, they're IEM's and I like my music. I use them a lot and I like having the best. Seen my bike? They just don't understand. But please, continue letting mommy and daddy buy you stupid ass stuff...

    n00b needs new headphones

    I know. They have a lower ohm level than my EX71's did.... I think. It seems that they don't go as low in the range but if everyone else says they are awesome, then why not...

    Sennheiser CX 300 IEM (a personal review)

    Well, I bought a pair of these in black with express shipping. Cost me $63 altogether. Ordered them at 9PM... is it too much to ask for them to be shipped and here tomorrow? Duh, probably. But Wednesday should be doable. I can't wait! I hate using my old crappy POS headphones. And...

    n00b needs new headphones

    Well, I just took the plunge. Ordered them off Office Depot through Amazon. Express shippingwas only 2 bucks more... So now I'm in for $63 but from what I hear, it's worth it. We'll see... Hope they don't need an amp... should be easier to drive than my Sony's though.

    n00b needs new headphones

    Haha, I didn't keep my Sony's. The wire was wasted.. they lasted longer than I expected. So the CX 300's are what I should get now? I hate regular headphones now. Have to be IEM's. I want boomy bass and good isolation so is this the best bet or are UE's or Shures any better?

    I STILL have no idea what I want. I kinda like the idea of the CX300... but I KNOW I like EX71 headphones... I've never had anything better... The EX81 has that ear loop so I doubt I'll get those. I'm going to go to my local kmart and look what they have there... long bike ride.

    Thanks guys. Well, I'm going to try to go for what I posted in the link earlier. I love these headphones but I will try to sample some CX300's first. Or maybe those EX81's... not sure.
