WHAT IS
- GOOD FIT: these earphones are perfect for prolonged use.
- GOOD SOUND: Every frequency is well balanced. Bass frequencies are deep but not too deep to mask the highest ones.
- OK TO MAKE MUSIC: if you are a musician, these earphones are good enough to provide a fast, portable and reliable audio feedback.
- EXTERNALLY QUIET: playing loud music won't annoy people around.
- EASY TO FIND IN SHOPS: in Europe they can be found in every mid/large hi-tech shop.
- STILL GOOD WITHOUT FOAM: with the foam they wear and sounds better, but without foam they are still comfortable and good sounding.
- PERFECT CABLE LENGTH: cable length is just perfect, not too short nor too long.
- AVAILABLE IN MANY COLORS: in case you care about color matching with you apparel
- NO LONG LIFESPAN: sadly this is a common problem of the (many) Sennheiser earphones I had. After about one year of daily use the sound quality start to drop a little (with some crackling noise too). If not handled with adequate care will lead in damaged earphones.
- SHOULD BE CHEAPER: this earphones are just a repaint (with a very little sound enhancement) of the MX-170. Problem is the MX-170 are just half the price.
FINAL RATE
8/10 ...great earphones
PERSONAL COMMENT
Probably one of the best earphones in this price tag. If you don't care about fancy color and can live with a little less deep bass frequencies, I suggest the MX-170 instead that are sold half the price.
