afbug 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2005 (edited) Cresyn LMX-E630. Or Creative EP630. The rest can forget it. Edited November 18, 2005 by afbug Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ahdui 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2005 Cresyn LMX-E630 has a pretty low sensitivity 97dB compared to others. doesnt sensitivity matters alot about the clarity? (new abt it not sure) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neutralzz 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2005 doesnt matter. sensitivity = how many db/watt at a certain distance, i.e. how easy to drive and how loud it will be 96 is very decent...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ahdui 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2005 hmm tough decision so my updated list of In-ears wil be... MDR-EX71SL/W (currently using) MDR-EX51LP/W Panasonic RP-HJE50 Cresyn LMX-E630 Creative EP630 hope to see more comments coming in.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
afbug 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2005 The EP630 is more agressive and fun sounding. The Cresyn is clearer. Clearest of the lot. I've not heard the ATH-CK5 and Philips HE-9500 so 'the lot' excludes these 2. If you like bass, its the EP630. Garanteed to blow your brains away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If i'm not wrong, i've seen DiGdUb post some comments about those 2. Do a search here. Think he has them. If he doesn't recommend them, then its EP630.
