Been using my sony walkman's earphones(mdr-e808) for god knows how long..atleast 4~5 years !

one of the best darn earphones i've used..my ipod earphones are no where in comparison..

And all of a sudden it just died on me, yesterday !

(kinda careless with it,and wen it's in my coll. bag,it's a nightmare ;))

So,i need an immediate earphone replacement for my ipod,notebook..

So plz do suggest somthing that looks cool & sounds awesome !

hope it features something like my sony's 'mega-bass' feature..

luv bass !

So,here's my criteria..

<= Rs.300 (Current Price)

Don't need the ear-plug type !

Don't need the 'clip-on to your ears' type !

Don't need noise cancellation too!

Has to be easily available

And i'd really appreciate the model no. & exact price..

Thnx for ur time guys..

No replies????

just went through creative and sony's website..

they have quite a few entry level ones..

not sure bout their price and performance though..

planning to get it by this evening..
 
seriously, the philips has as much bass , and is cheaper :P

compared it with the stock earbuds which came with my sony walkman and panasonic discman.

well, since i posted the best bang for buck earbud and you wanted more expensive :bleh:

dude , shop around , and see if you can get these philips. there is another philips model which comes for 40 rs in a rectangular box- they suck real bad. DONT get them:P

buying the other stuff might be a bit of a gamble , as after spending 300 bucks , you might get something which sucks, especially since at that price range , there are a lot of fake sony/panasonic/ipod earbuds available, and it takes a trained eye to spot the fakes.

most of the cheap earbuds in this price range have good treble , but bass is hard to find ;)

I once was in college and very broke , hence my extensive knowledge of earbuds at this price point :P
 
thnx for ur replies..

jus came back home after paying a visit to few electronic stores..

they only had the fllg:

creative basic stereo earphones mp-60 or 50 -190 /-

panasonic SBS earphones RP-HV103 - 190 /-

ep 635 - 8xx /-

apple earphones( 1k ! gawd !!)

and

cheap philips earphones - 50 !!!?

guess i have to wait till i get some time to go to richie street, to hunt for a good one at a good price or SHOP ONLINE!
 
Buy from theitdepot. Many people have bought from there and I believe they were quite happy with the service.

95 + 60 (shipping extra)=155/-, :bleh:

They have their store here in chennai, so need to pay for shipping.

What I meant to say is, its available in the market less than 95 rs.
