Which one is better overall.
Sound quality, fit, value.

I'd recommend buying a lotto ticket and hoping to win enough to buy the MD33's... |

The medium tips liquify the brain on me though with the excessive bass. |

The ex71s are very comfortable. also, is the 4 polar plug thing any problem when using a normal device? does it need a convertor or is it hapy to work on a standard headphone jack? |

For the price they're great value. Maybe the MD33s are better, but the EX71s aren't bad at all. The only think I don't like is the stupid extension cord system, which the cheaper EX51s don't have, but apparently they are the same otherwise. Another thing I see a lot of in this thread is "I haven't used the MD33 but they must be better". The original poster could have made that guess themselves, having a bunch of other people guessing doesn't help at all. |
