I been wanting to buy some cheap earphone that are decent and comfortable.
I think I'm willing to spend at the most $50-80,just for my ipod.


I already own MS-1

Music Preferations?

I have heard the ER6i and ER6 are really nice. I would go with that, but that's just me.

if you dont need max isolation, consider the MDR EX90. Modded they sound very good and balanced, just enough bass bloat to keep things interesting.

$20US - JVC Marshmallow

I just bought some Shure e2cs and they are super awesome. Very "decent" which is what you're looking for. They're at the top of your budget, you can shop around I think TTVJ has them for 70.00. They are worth it, and come with a 2 year warantee!

Before this thread gets so flooded with the word "Marshmallow", that its repeated to the point of losing all meaning when you say it to yourself, allow me to speak for about 80 potential posters in this thread. GET THE JVC MARSHMALLOWS. 20 bucks. The last two things I said shall echo through this thread.

The e2cs were my first "serious" purchase in headphones. For the same price there are others like Eytomic but I think they're a good starter for this habit. I still use mine and because of them I consider spending over $180 for my next IEM.

Creative EP-630 and the Sennheiser CX300 are both worthy of consideration too, as are the PX100's. Plenty of threads on all of them, just use the search.

Shure E2C-N work great with my nano and ALE.

 

[Chrisrod01]

Okay I like the recomendation but another question where would i be able to get a sort of a case for these Earphones? Something cheap


Also i was really interest on the sens cx300 how do they perform against the shures

 

[bubsdaddy]

Shure E2s come with a nice case. I use an Eclipse Mints tin for my EP630. I need another mint tin for my Marshmallows.

 

[derek8555]

If you like the Shure case, you can buy from them directly. It's not much ($5-10)

IMHO the Shure E2 (overemphasized mids and midbass) and Creative EP-630 (one-tone bass) are far behind the Etymotic ER-6 (balanced and bass tight) in terms of SQ. The JVC Marshmallows are good for $20 but lack far too much detail to be really considered decent, bass is a little too strong even with E2 foams.
