After 6-7 months using my EX71's, the right channel blew out! It crackled a bit then went. Searching online it turns out others have experienced a channel going with this model in particular & other Sony's. Great sound but fragile build. Seems Sony knows there is a problem with the driver blowing out.
Anyway so I need a replacement. I have Sennheiser MX500 but feel like a upgrade but can't afford much. My choices are:
Panasonic RPHJE50
Sony MDR-EX81
Philips SBCHN060
Shure E2C
Etymotic ER20
could stretch 2 Etymotic ER6i
or give Sony EX71 one more chance (fits perfectly although bass heavy)
Considered Senn PX100 / PX200 but don't like headband design.
Any opinions welcomed
