| First off, the only reason I rated 4 instead of 5 stars is because I had switch out the Sennheiser bud tips for my old Sony MDR-EX71s. The Sennheiser tips created an uncomfortable suction inside my ear canal.br / Sound is awesome. I'd equate the bass to having a subwoofer in your mouth...but the full range is no punk either. The cord is just long enough to have your player in pocket and comfortably wear the 300s; preferably left pocket since that's the short side of the line. Any more movement than a casual walk and you may want to invest in a short extension, or clip your player somewhere above waist level.br /br /Listening to KMFDM - "Juke Joint Jezebel" @ half volume |

| Just received my Sennheiser CX300-W Earbuds which I got for $20 via an Amazon Zshops seller. These kick the living crap outta the Sony Fontopia earbuds that I've been using for the past 2 years or so (which I paid around $50 for at the time). They're much more powerful, and the all-around sound is much, much fuller. The bass is particularly astounding. I heartily recommend you pick a pair up pronto. Wowzers! |

| I purchased a pair of Sennheiser CX300 earbuds for my Cowon D2 mp3 player, and I'm very happy with them. The sound quality from these earbuds is fantastic, especially for the low price. They block out noise very well, and have excellent bass if you insert them correctly.br /br /The downsides are that it has a very short cord, in my opinion. If I put my mp3 player in my pocket while listening to music, the cord was stretched almost to the limit. I'm not even that tall, just 5'7". The other downside is that the noise from the cord rubbing against itself is extremely loud and annoying when you're in a quiet environment. I don't notice it when I'm out and about, but if I'm studying it's a real distraction. Wearing the right bud behind my neck instead of in front minimalizes the rubbing to bearable levels.br /br /These earbuds offer excellent sound quality for such a low price. The short cord and cord rubbing noises are annoying, but not dealbreakers. Just be aware of those shortcomings. |

| Up until the purchase of the Sennheiser CX300-B, I had been using Sennheiser ear phones -- which were good but somewhat in the way if I was trying to listen in bed. These earbuds are perfect for me -- the smallest size is very comfortable; the sound is good; and they make listening in bed very comfortable! |

| This was my first foray out of the cheap "button-style" earbuds (which never, ever fit right in my ears). These are definitely much more comfortable with a tighter fit. I can wear them as I ride my bike to work without them falling out of my ears. They block out about 80% of the wind noise as I ride, which means I don't have to turn my music up too loudly. Leaving them in my ears for more than an hour tends to make my ears ache a bit, but I don't really need them in that long as I have some very comfortable over-the-ear headphones at work. I'd definitely recommend them. |

 "Very uncomfortable and cheap design" | 2008-09-11 |

| I ordered these earbuds a few weeks ago, reluctantly--as I've been unimpressed with my previous experiences with asymetric earbud cords. These buds were no exception--in fact the short length of the cord made them even more uncomfortable than other asymetric cords I've tried in the past. The sound is decent (for this lowest tier cheap pricerange) but please don't allow yourself to be seduced by the price or by the Sennheiser name, these buds are crap. Every time you turn your head, a bud is painfully yanked from your ear by way of the cord uncomfortably gripping the back of your neck. Recently, I tried wearing them in front, which not only looks stupid, but, due to the inflexible cheap material they're made from, causes the cord to rub against my chin or cheek and still yanks the buds from my ears. |

| If you have never used asymetrical cords before these will be a problem. In spite of liking the price and thinking they sounded good once I managed to get them sufficiently wedged into my ears, I looked like a fool at the gym trying to keep the long cord from snagging and the cord around the back of my neck was annoying. There are better models to get for the gym but it seemed dumb to get two pairs for specific uses when they are making better, cheaper ones every day. Basically, the asymetrical cords was something I had not really noticed until they arrived and I wish I had known. |

I bought these earbuds mainly to get a pair that fit in my ears. Regular earbuds will not stay in my ears. These come with 3 different size buds and the small fits well.
I have listened only to audiobooks so far and the sound is good. These earbuds block outside noise very well. I have been able to turn the volume down to 4 or 5. They even block out kitchen noises (I wear them while I cook) like running water and the spice grinder. I tried to listen to them while using the food processor and I could hear the reader if I turned the volume up a bit, but the noise was finally too distracting.
One thing I have noticed a couple of times was after I listened to a book for an hour or more I started to get a headache. It was more than likely a coincidence and not related to the earbuds. If it is related to the earbuds, I think it probably is due to the type of earbuds (internal) they are and not related to the brand. |

| I give the product three out of five stars. The headphones are more for those that wear a IPOD on their arm. I wear mine on my shorts. So, with the one side being longer then the other causes some problems. The sound though I give a 4 out of 5. |
