Sony MDR-EX71SLB Fontopia Headphones - Black

I should have loved these headphones, I got used to using iPod headphones and lets be honest, their not the greatest in headphone technology!! But, having spent my 19.99 I was expecting a good sound, nothing life changing but I was expecting something really good. The problem I found was that they just didn't fit that well. The sounds was ok, when I pushed these headphones into my ear the sound was great. The bass was defined and the treble was clear. The mid range bass seemed a little lost in these headphones but thats to be expected I suppose.

But, really, I dont think I have exceptionally shaped ears or anything particularly odd in the shape of my ear. These headphones had three different sized ends and they none of them seemed ... Read More:

Shure Se210 Sound Isolating Earphones- Black

It takes a few days to appreciate these headphones and a bit of experimentation to select the best sleeve and position relative to the ear for you. However, after listening for while, it dawns on you how much you have been missing. I have re-learnt how to listen to music and have been forced to re-rip my music in to a higher bitrate as these headphones pick out all the flaws of a poor qualiy rip. I am hearing for the first time, the sound of a guitar string slightly hitting the fretboard, the sound of the artist taking a short breath before singing and the sound of the pianist's stool creaking as they lean to press the piano keys. These sounds are all in pieces of music that I would have previously considered to know inside out. I now get pleasure from ... Read More:

Koss PortaPro - High Quality Sound Stereophone

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Earphones
from: Koss

February 05, 2008
Firstly, these headphones really do punch a lot higher than their weight in terms of sound quality vs. money spent.
The sound quality just is astounding for something that is under £20. I've had a pair of £40 Sennheisers for about 2 years and they are not a patch on the PortaPros.
The bass response on these is warm, strong and natural, without rattling your eardrums. The midtones are lovely and strong, which is something rather missing on a lot of headphones. The high end is clear and bright as well. I will say that these do take a little getting used to, mainly because they do produce such a completely rounded sound.

At first, I was a bit skeptical. They look a little different from the normal type of headphones and usually when you ... Read More:

Sennheiser OMX70 - Sport Portable Headphones

If you are looking for sports headphone that stay in place, are robust, provide great sound, do not fall out of your ears and are reasonably priced...then look no further.

I wanted headphones specifically for running and I've had these for over a year now and they are still working perfectly despite being 'sweated into' and rained on. I once went running in a heavy downpour with them on and afterwards the sound became tinny. I wondered if they had been damaged irrevocably, but after a week of drying out of their own accord, they were back to their functional best.

My only point of improvement would be to have volume control on the lead - as per other Sennheiser headphones. Because I use an Ipod, you have root around for the Ipod itself ... Read More:

Sony MDR-EX71SLW Stereo Earphones - White

Listen folks, I have 2 pairs of these and they are without doubt the best sounding low-mid priced headphones I've personally ever had.
What you have to do though, to get the best possible sound, is to make absolutely sure you have the right size buds fitted. They come with 3 sizes, I'm an average sized bloke but I needed the large buds. If you don't test for the right size, you will end up wondering why lots of people rave about these cans.
How to test ?
What you need to do is fit each set of buds, play some bassy music, then push the headphones gently into your ear until they sit snugly, then gently push them til as far as they can go. If you notice an increase in bass while you've pushed them further than they would normally sit in the ear, then ... Read More:

Groove Buds Noise Isolating Hi-Fi Quality Ear Buds Earphone (Black) Eco Softpack

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Earphones
from: OCTONE


I agree with all the comments here that at the price they are a bargain, and they very effectively isolate only the music you're listening too, but I've had mine only a couple of months and now have to look for a new pair.

Firstly, the rubber ear buds come off quite easily, so on a few occasions they've got lodged in my ear, but more annoyingly I've since lost one on a plane as it sprung from my ear never to be seen again.

The main reason I have to go shopping again though is that the sound form the right ear is becoming intermitent, and the plug into the socket needs to be twiddled to get the sound back.

Even for eight quid I would not have expected a technical fault like this after only two months, so I feel when it comes to these sorts ... Read More:

Sennheiser PX200 Closed Mini Headphone

I recently purchased a Creative Zen 16gb mp3 player, (with which I`m extremely happy,incidently) but the headphones that came with it, although providing good sound quality, sat rather uncomfortably in my ears and had a tendency to keep falling out. So I scoured Amazon and settled upon the Sennheiser PX 200s due to the high number of 5 star reviews.Here are the pros and cons:-

Pros - durable construction
- nice and light
- fold away neatly
- extremely comfortable
- don`t leak too much sound
- cancels out external sound

Cons - poor bass response, most of the action seems to be going on
in the mid-range
- overall sound rather thin and ... Read More:

Sennheiser PMX70 - Sportline Stereo Neckband Headphones

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Earphones

Excellent sound quality, great for running, much better than in-ear that can hurt and don't stay in when at the gym.

Better than the Nike Philips headphones that used to be my sport headphones of choice. These are infinately better.
