Bought these for my friend, for his birthday. I was looking at earphones in the under £25 category, which were good but also were discrete where he could potentially sleep on them.
Pros and Cons are very similar if not identical to their older brothers the CX500’s
Hi there guys n girls!
So I thought to create a comparison, as I had in my hands at the same time 3 earphones that all cost around £100-£150. I also decided to add 5 more to the list, seeing as I hadn’t written or compared them yet!

I bought these in 2010 from Amazon (themselves), and had a seal broken on them – after calling Sennheiser, the local manager told me to return them to Amazon, as they would never sell Sennheiser’s with a broken seal.
So I returned them.
