Bought these when I got my ipod nano after reading a review on the What Hi-fi website. Great quality for the size and price and a huge improvement over the standard ipod earphones. The only complaint, as with a previous review, is that due to the design of the headphones, any rubbing or vibration of the wires does result in a lot of noise. Ok for me, but maybe a problem if you intend to wear these while exercising.

These are very comfortable and the sound is great. The buds come in different sizes for a custom fit.
The only gripe i would have is that any external rubbing of the wires leads to sound distortion. Not a problem on the bus/train or whatever but is annoying if walking/running. Although to be fair if you tuck the wires into clothing as i do then there is no noise at all so not really a negative.
I would highly reccomend these as i guarantee when you first use them on your ipod or whatever you will hear stuff on your music that inferior plugs just do not pick up. Buy em and you won't regret it.

Ok, I'm not a total Audiophile but I do appreciate a good sound and listen to all kinds of music through my 20 year old celestion speakers at home.
I can understand that these type of earphones are not suited to everybody. However they seem to be suited to most people and I love them. There not so expensive that you have to worry every time it rains but they give good enough sound for a really enjoyable listening experience. Having owned the original cx300's for 2.5 years they finally gave up and I decided to try out the newer incarnation.
Can't tell if they are that much better than the orginal cx300's, but they certainly seem to give a good rounded sound with all the high's and lows that I'd expect. To test my old used, abused and busted cx300's side by side wouldn't be fair.
Some people like the asymmetric cable design (1 side is longer than other and goes round back of head), others don't. I actually ordered a pair of CX400II's but cancelled the order as soon as I realised that they were symmetric as I just find this design to save me so much hastle.
One point I should make is that these headphones do sound better after a few hours of use so don't pull them out of the box, decide that they sound naff and come on here and post a review.
Also, these headphones do block a fair amount of noise as long as you get a good fit in your ear (which is paramount on this design). I sometimes use them on my motorbike, which I'm sure some people will abuse me for but personally I love cruising along on a nice summer day weaving to my favourite chillout tunes.

mediocre...better than standard ipod headphones though
They are okay. The sound can be tinny at times and after a few months the left ear phone stopped playing music. Read more

They break
I owned the previous edition to these, so when one of the earpieces gave up the ghost I had no qualms about buying these.
However, 3 months down the line, they have broken. Read more

Not good!
I bought these at the beginning of March. First negative point is that it is quite difficult to achieve a comfortable fit in your ear, unlike the Sony ones I had previously which... Read more
