liffeous 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 hihi!! how is this compared to MDR E888 (SONY also) i have 888s for like say 2 yrs ... i think they are pretty good buds for 80 bucks but thinking of upgrading.... are these good choices? frankly it doesnt have to be sony but my budget is pretty tight but must be less than 100.... doesnt need to be canal but this seems nice (design) lol regards JJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RonTheMan 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2005 Personally, I would say the MDR888 beats the hell out of the MDR81, soundwise. Definitely, not recommended as an upgrade. For around $100, perhaps a better option would be to try headphones instead of earbuds or canalphones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
