I had a doubt regarding pairing of headphones
Does the quality of sound given by the ep630 change when a different handsfree is used i.e; Does EP630 sound different with an HPM 82 than a HPM 70?
Also, does anyone use the EP630 with the P1i?
And which handsfree do you pair it up with?

I have a EP630 and a HBH-DS970. I must say the later totally blows the EP630 out the water. Creatives just dont have the bass, its very very less compared to the SE ones. The DS970 are based off of HPM-70 I think.

If it's bass you're after, then I have to agree that perhaps the Creative EP630s are not the best choice. But having used it with my W810 as my MP3 player for quite some time now, I think the EP630 offers very good sound quality, it's very balanced and I hear details that weren't audible before. Sound quality is a very personal thing and not everyone likes the same kinda sound. I'm also about to purchase a pair of Sony MDR-EX85 which offers stronger bass.
Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. |

I currently have the Creative EP-635. These I bought recently after reading favourable reviews. (Don't get to test headphones in India, you buy them blindly). I have also found that the bass is severely lacking with my first gen iPod Nano.
What other 'reasonably' priced headphones should I look at that have much more bass?
I am also looking at upgrading the iPod to a Sony A820 series Walkman mp3.
Looking for much fuller bass. |

You can never go wrong with Sennheisers, they are a cut above the rest.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009 |

I bought these http://www.a4tech.com/ennew/product.asp?cid=66&scid=125&id=445
They cost 4 UK pounds (converted). They beat the crap out of my creative headphones in all frequency ranges. |

i loved my jays q-jays, apart from lacking a tad more bass which i would have loved even more, but now...... i enjoy the sounds from my Klipsch image x5  (had sennheiser cx500 in between, had ultimate ears super fi 4 before qjays and also had jays d-jays before that, got sony ex85 too which came with my mp3 player)

The Sennheisers undoubtedly offer the sound quality I liked the most. Having just purchased the EX85, my initial impression isn't all that good. Perhaps I've become too accustomed to my EP630. I feel that the EX85 causes fatigue after listening to them for just a short while. Also, the seal isn't as good as my EP630, even after I swapped the silicon tips, thinking perhaps it was due to that. Noise isolation still isn't as good as my EP630. I'll use the EX85 a few more times and see if I've been too quick to judge. Maybe they'll sound better after burning in, though I've never really believed in that. |

So, the CX300 are a good buy at, lets say, US$25 ?... what i'm looking for is a balanced sound, but with distinctive bass, i mean, i want to hear the bass in a good proportion when it is meant to be heard, any comments about using them with the megabass EQ preset on SE Phones?
Many thanks! |

I like phillips headphones, they are inexpensive and all have gold plating (£10 +) and all have great sound quality
