Hi folks!
I thought of opening a tread so each of us could say what is his portable phones (that he uses most of the time).
For example:
I used up till two months ago the EP630 and then they broke so now i'm on the hunt for new IEM's. (probably gonna go with the cx300)

Your turn now

Unfourtunatly, my MS-1. They are almost useless in noisy situations. But I just cant stand crappy sound, and I dont have anything else that is good.

Easy one for me - Sleek Audio's SA6. Absolutely love them!

My portable headphones are my SF5 Pro. For the price I couldn't be happier.

EP630 on the go, PX100 and Amp when stationary and it's quiet!

HD25-1 if carrying a backpack/bag, otherwise PX100.

PK-1s. For portable use I have found I really like buds the best. I use them un-amped which I know a lot of people frown on with the PK-1s but I am quite happy with them and think they sound great even without an amp. One less thing to carry and since I use my iPhone I don't have to carry a phone and a DAP...these days I'm quite content with the minimalist approach. YMMV.

I use Panasonic RPHJE300K not bad for $40

Yes i get your point, IMO using an earbud while carrying a portable amp kinda defeat it's real purpose as a "portable" setup. If we want to carry an amp around, maybe we should call it "transportable".

how can you possibly call them portable phones? they're quite large, and they most certainly don't fit in any pocket. You need a bag to carry them

KSC35

I love the way Koss phones sound

 

[Uncle Erik]

Shure e3c for when I need isolation. Grado RS-1 when I don't.

Both are driven just fine by an iPod - no portable amp necessary.

Maybe he keeps them around his neck when he isnt using them

Audio Technica ATH-ESW9's on sunny days and Shure SE530's in rain and snow

My Westone UM2 have broken down, and I have not replaced them yet.
