Best earphones to get for about

[couzo]

Was wondering what are the best earphones to get for around the ?25-?30 mark as my i-pod ones are not as good as I want I hear (no pun intended!!) that the MDR-ED238ML are good and the MDR-EX71SLB are very good as the fit inside the ear. Iwould also like white ones if you guys know of any?

Thanks

Koss KSC-35 or KSC-50, the Porta Pro and Sporta Pro's are great too. (They all use the same drivers and are awesome)

If you want white MDR-EX71SLB is the only choice, i think.

I own silver MDR-D22sl Eggo, and love them i would highly recommment them. Here is a link to the D22sl's

They are much smaller then they seem.

unless you want clunky earphones you have to drag everywhere, get the sony ex71s. I bought some for my new ipod and they not only provide decent sound they are also insulated, meaning that the european sound reduction problem isnt so great.

oh yeah, you can buy the white ones from www.audiocubes.com they provide great service and shipped to me (england) in about 2 days. they are about 30 quid

The Sennheiser MX400 or MX500 sounds better in many people's opinion than the Sony EX71, and costs substantially less. However, they don't come in white...

They seem good but I like the inner ear bits on the 71s I just found out that sony don't ship the white versions to the UK well thats just great!!! Off to us shops I go!!

The EX-71's are great - white versions really stand out - especially when everyone on the tube is listening with the standard black ones!

I bought mine off a hong kong seller on UK ebay - ?29 all in. The guys name is Ringo Lau, and really does the business. I got mine in 4 days. He also does those high end sony head phones - MDX-888 or something.

Anyway, search for i-shopping4u on ebay.co.uk

wtf? are you blind, stupid or just lazy?

the mx400s or 500s are indeed cheaper and probably have better mids to highs. However, for comfort, isolation and bass, the ex71s cannot be beaten in this price catagory.

Although you can buy them of that hong kong, he is not quite so 'official' as audiocubes.com and so may mean emailing back and forth etc and less security. Audiocubes.com is quick, efficient, and #### good customer service.

I am not blind, Stupid or lazy I just wondered if you could buy them in the UK just incase there were any problems and I needed to send them back!:mad: Did you get yours from audiocubes? If so how long did it take to get to you I see on there site shipping to the UK can either be $12 or $60
