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...- standard235

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...- standard235

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.- standard235

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...- standard235

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...- standard235

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...- standard235

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.- standard235

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?- standard235

n00b needs new headphones
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.- standard235

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.- standard235
