xenocide 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2007 forget EP-630 <$80 go for the OVC series T10, T11 and T20 are good buys depending on your music type. Head down to Jaben for an audition. Let your ears decide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aaron-xp 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2007 I'm assuming you prefer canalphones/IEMs for their isolation, and will focus on them instead of the earbuds (unless otherwise stated) Audio Technica - The Ck7 is pretty popular, but it's about $130, so it's exceed the budget. The CK5 isn't really popular around here. Cresyn - The E630 is more or less an equivalent of the EP630 of Creative, just slightly bassier (probably muddier as well). Etymotic Research - The cheapest model, the ER6(i) costs about $200+ in Singapore (US price slightly better), rather far off the budget. Known for clean and analytical sound. OVC - (Mentioned by guys above) Sennheiser - CX300, popular choice in headfi. Retails about $130 in Singapore. I would recommend the CK7, which costs the same, instead. MX500, MX450, MX550 are some popular earbud choices. Shure - E2, the cheapest model, costs about $140 plus (I think). Rather bassy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aaron,its the other way round.Creative is muddier and much more bassier. While Cresyn is more towards the Mid-range.
