Hi all,

I'm looking for some good quality and reliable earphones for a friend of mine who happens to be a girl with small ears.

She tried my E500 but they are to big for her... and also too expensive.

Do you guys/gals know about any good earphones (under $100) for her?

Any suggestions are welcome!

Is isolation necessary? The alternative is to buy ear buds or clip-ons. there are are lot of reasonably priced ear buds and clip-ons.

sennheiser cx300's? with the small tips, possibly small enough. or maybe some UE super.fi 3's? those come with quite a range of sizes, like 6 i believe.


of you can go the cheap route and get the small sony's ex51lp i believe. those are around 40ish, the senn's around 60-70 and the UE's right around 100

cx 100's? I bought a pair for the g/f. not good for isolation though.

Depends on the style. You've got Koss KSC/75, Koss Plug, Koss PortaPro, Senn PX100 or even the Grado 60's, all of which are well under $100.

KSC75 for sound and the PX100 for looks.

My fiance have small ear canals and uses the d-Jays IEMs with good result. They have 4 different tips I think and the smallest are really tiny, much smaller than any of the tips provided for the Etymotic ER6i or ER4P.

We've been through something like this with another user 3 months back. I think Jays' or V-Moda Bass Freqs do the job best, as both offer the smallest fitting possible. Altec Lansing IM616 and IM716 come with foam fittings which should work very well also.

Don't get Super.fi 3's, however, their tips are pretty big for some users, even if they're small.

Well, I just gave my friend my creative EP630. She's got small ears and she's comfortable using them with the smallest tips.

KSC75's, HA-FX33's, PX100's

My girlfriend got some vibes from me, and they work quite well for her!

We also have XXS as accessories for people with very small ear canals.

Hey, thanks guys... you are awesome!

...I think I'm gona check the d-jays and the v-moda vibe.
...I think I rather go for the IEMs.

In terms of sound quality, do you think the v-moda are any good?

Thanks again everyone!
