Comparing the two the cx200 certainly has more bass, but its of the thuddy mud type. the cx300 mk II does seem to be an improved cx300, voice clarity is very good now, so listening to music on it is pretty nice. the cx300 original model is somewhere between the two. build quality is good as always, and the cords now are thick and round instead of thin and flat like the cx300. the 200 has a sliding clip on the cord for holding one ear bud if you are monitoring with a single bud as it is Y cord. better in theory than practice as holding the weight of all that with one ear doesn't work all that great. one ear monitoring still works better with J cord.
the cx200 type does seem to have a flaw. the back of the units are indented instead of round. Amazon.com: Sennheiser CX 200 In Ear Canal Ear bud: Electronics atleast the way my ears are shaped cx300 types are wedged in place by the ear cartilage adding to the secure fit.. the cx200's reduced back area reduces contact and makes the units feel looser in the ear. perhaps this is just my ears but i think it might apply to some others as well.
