I currently only own a iem-the creative ep630 (PS: md33, cx300 to my opinion...)

I'm thinking of getting the senns px100. cause i want some earphones withOUT isolation at all, so i could hear music at home and hear when i'm getting a call too.. I also want some variety of sound..

Well, I know they'll have obviously different sound (In ear, Out ear.. isolation vs. airy sound) but will the px100 be with level with the ep630? Or maybe better?

And what about the bass with px100... thx u guys

I have the EP630 and bought the PX100 about a month ago - they will be given away as gift next week...

. My advice: Go and get them, they perform better in almost every respect. Guess your EPs will collect dust in long term.

BTW, the KSC75 sound better than the PX100. But only slightly, and only if they are "Kramer" dremel modded.

EP630's harsh sibilance already makes PX100's a much better choice for my ears.

The PX100's are good. They sound awfully thin outdoors (noisy), but great for quiet indoor use (IMO, and talking about the bright ones :P). I'd recommend Koss Porta Pros if you are going to use them outdoors more, they have lots of bass so their sound doesn't become so thin when you go into a noisier enviroment.


The Koss KSC75 sounds like a brighter Porta Pro. They are great.

That really depends on what you're replacing with them, don't you think?

Personally I think the new PX 100 sounds great and is better than the KSC75 in some respects. For portable use I've got them both, as well as the Ety ER-4P, and when I don't need isolation I find myself reaching for the Sennheisers every time.

I would've got the ksc75 if I had a chance to wear them a bit.. Cause I own an old sony clip on ears (md-q22 i think) and they weren't very comfortable...
I'm just afraid of getting another pair of clip ons..
Genneraly, the ksc75 is better then px100 in any way? Or just for outdoor? For isolation I have epo630...

So basicly your'e saying the px100 sounds better then your ety er-4p?! And that the px100 also sounds better then the ksc75? But the px100 are leaky and un-isolating? But they sound great?

Well im looking for non-isolationg earphones with great SQ.. I dont give a banana about isolation, cause i have my ep630 (omg what sssibilance), and they're fine for the bus, and walking outside and stuff..

So would you reccomend px100 for me?

EDIT: Sorry for the double... My Mistake

I'm saying that the PX 100 sounds different than the ER-4P, not necessarily better. I thoroughly enjoy it though. And yes, I would certainly recommend the PX 100 to you. If you can find a way to deal with the ear clips though the KSC75 is a better deal at less than half the price.

Im in israel, and the kosses cost 15 dollars less. Not such a difference. and I prefer the sennheiser design (and build quality) so I think we have a winner.
Genneraly, The ksc75 are worse? Even if only a bit? Or are they better? If they're much better i might get them through amazon.. It's just 10 dollars there I can take a chance... Sorry for annoying you. It's just a lot of money! (the px100 for a 14 year old lol)

Take into consideration that they are both great headphones in thier own way.PX100 has a dark sound with good bass not so much detail IMO.KSC75 is brighter,less bass more detail.So its just really your own preference,if you think that the ear-clips might be uncomfortable for you then id go with the Senns.
