headphones (1 Viewer)

I've lost my cx300's in-ear headphoneys.
Would like to replace with something better perhaps, in the same price range (under €50).
Just for ipod/travelling and not what.

Any suggestions????
thank you.

Had to get a new pair the other week as the last ones gave up.

Got a pair of CX300II in Argos for something like €51.99 (I also bought insurance on them as they're the one thing that will break within a year/2 years.

The stinker is when I checked out HMV on Grafton St. selling the same pair for €39.99. In the longer term I'm better off when I get these current ones replaced through Argos insurance.

Hmv offer insurance now too,I didn't take it up as the ear-phones I got were less than a tenner.Two months later and they're starting to crackle.
You get what you pay for.

hmmm.....
so far I'm looking at Maximo iMetal iM590, and Ultimate Ears 350 as possible alternatives.

Back in the day I got that insurance on a Discman.

Must have had it replaced about 4 times over the two years.

Anytime it started to act up at all, even just the headphones, I was straight into the shop to get a new replacement one.

It was deadly.

I have an ear-phones question. Does anyone else have the same problem with me with those in-ear headphones that have the buds on them? Basically, my earholes seem to be too big for them or something, because even with the largest buds, I can't get enough contact to hear any bass using these, unless I want to make them VERY uncomfortable.
Now the regular iPod type ones that just use a pad and no buds - grand. These are shit headphones of course, as they are fucked after a year, but I can hear what I need from them and they don't get uncomfortable. I use them in the gym no bother.
My current pair of these is fucked from the fact that they don't last for shit though, so I have to get new headphones. Anyone know of any good in-ear pad type phones, like the iPod ones?

I have the opposite problem where I need to use the smallest buds, same problem with plugs too, none of the standard ones with stay in my ears. I would presume Sennheiser would make a pad type earphone that'd be decent.
