They cost around $60 from ebay,

Is there anything better near that price range(I'm willing to go up to $100, if something is better than CX95s by $40) than the 95s?

I don't think I will be using an AMP with the headphones.

I mainly listen to Classical rock(Pink Floyd, Queen, Scorpions, Europe, ...) and 80's pop songs. Are CX95s good for that?

Thanks for the reply Mark,

Now I don't know about ebay :/ some of the sellers say their CX95s are genuine, so maybe some of them are real.

Could you recommend anything better than CX95 in that price range though? is anything better?

What about Shure SE110 or SE210 though? how do they compare to CX95s?


Although not as bad as some here would have you believe , the 110 and 210 are not as good as the CX95 (i have owned all of these) , they lack bass and the treble is a little shrill, the SE115 may be better from what i have read.

My ebay advice would be not to buy from Hong Kong or China, read the feedback for the CX95s they have already sold, if there are any comments on poor sound quality avoid that seller.

My mate got them from this guy :

That seller's even sold the CX95 for £16 & £17!!! and the SONY MDR-EX85LP for £7!!! -- I'd be inclined to think they are fake. £16 & £7 far too good to be legit. And if legit, which I doubt, then probably stolen.

All I can tell you is that my friend paid £25ish and they are 100% real. This seller sells them for £33 inc p+p buy me now but obviously just auctions some as well, doesn't mean they are fake or stolen.
