Hi,
yesterday I got my brand new Cowon D2 and I also bought the earphones "AKG K324P". Regrettably I will send back these earphones, because they sound quite cheap to me.
My brother owns a Samsung YP-K3 Maestro Edition with Samsung EP150 earphones, of which I'm really enthusiastic. Unfortunately you can't buy them anywhere, because they are only delivered with this player.
I've got some old Sennheiser MX 75 lying around here, but their color absolutely doesn't fit to the D2 and in addition they are too old (look used).
In direct camparison to the EP150, MX 75 and to the standart earphones coming with the D2, the AKG lose because they don't accent the bass at all - they absolutely don't bang
Equalizer/sound settings don't change my mind:
EP150 >> earphones coming with D2 > MX 75 > K324P
For this reason I browsed in the internet and found the Ultimate Ears Super.FI 5 EB. But to tell the truth, I don't want to spend 150 $ on earphones :/ 100 $ might be acceptable...that's why I am looking for a cheaper alternative.
I listen to music like (Alternative) Rock, some Metal/Pop/Ambience and I don't care if my environment can listen to my music, too or if I can listen to my environment
Can you give me tips, what earphones I might look for?
Thanks
