I  mostly listen to radio plays in bed (Im a shift worker so my sleeping pattern can be a bit different to my wifes). I mention this as she sometimes complains that she can hear my headphones when shes trying to sleep.
 
My current 'phones are Sennheiser PX100 IIs which I quite like but for speech they can sound a bit “heavy”.
Do you think in ears would be better ? I want natural speech and intimacy, also isolation to keep the wife happy. Im not looking for bass monsters , I've seen Soundmagic E30 and Radiopaq but I was concerned if they were fakes at £10 on Amazon UK?
 
Sorry its longwinded -writing on the net is not one of my strong points
Thanks

I doubt that the Radiopaqs would be faked, as they are UK only, and not well known. Earphones like Sennheisers are often faked since the brand is well known, and they are sold  around the world. I have a feeling the Radoipaqs may be in the process of being discontinued, so perhaps that might be the reason for the low price. It seems they were marketed poorly, and few knew about them.
I guess they were initially also a bit overpriced($100 list). At around $16 though the Jazz looks like a great bargain.
