Well, if you know it's just an opinion, perhaps your comments should be qualified a little. A lot of the time, you sound like CX300 is objectively better than ADDIEM, etc.

I hope not. I'm not so much "offended" by your preference of CX300 over ADDIEM, than slightly irritated by the tone with which you express said preference. |

I am irritated by the "Know it all" attitude more than the preference. Especially when many people are chiming in saying the ADDIEM is quite good for the price. Artmuzz insists his opinion is fact. |

Originally Posted by soozieq /img/forum/go_quote.gif Art, ignore the minority who are giving you a hard time!! Not worth it. The main thing is you can take the phones back as defective and not be out of pocket. Just refuse the replacement you know Argos are going to offer you |

You seem to have taken offence at his choice of adjectives: "better", "superior", "duped", "greedy", but that's his opinion because he assumed he would prefer them over a cheaper pair of CX300. And I also felt "duped" when I had the Shure SE420, and ended up preferring the much cheaper SE210! I just don't think it's up to any of us to decide how someone 'should' express their disappointment over a purchase, or to decide what adjectives are 'acceptable' to use in these instances. |

Those phones are the only product I have bought from Apple that I have been very disappointed with. Apple do make excellent Macs, iMacs, MacBooks and iPods but their headphone didn't impress me. |
