| As an audio professional, I expect quality from Sennheiser. These earbuds exceed my expectations. They are small, light weight and very comfortable. I frequently sleep with mine in. The noise cancellation and sound quality are excellent. If you use earbuds, do yourself a favor and get a pair of these. |

I bought these to replace a pair of Sony MDR-ED21LP's that died on me after a year or so of usage.
CX300 Pros
-Sounds great -Gives good bass -Offers good sound isolation
CX300 Cons
-They break
I used these daily and have them wrapped around my mp3 player carried in my pocket. I also used them when I cycled. Be very gentle with them, otherwise try something else. |

You cannot beat the price for a closed ear headphone. the thing that I did not expect out of this (and presumably all closed ear headphones) is that I can hear myself. I hear my breathing(I breath lightly, I am not a wheezing ex-smoker). Sometimes I think I can hear my heart beat. All of this adds to more background sound so I have to turn up the volume.
Other than my own breathing, these headphones are great. They have the best bass response of any earbud I've used. These are my first in-ear headphones so I cannot compare, but for the price they beat any earbud I've used. |

"Same as the EP-630" | 2008-05-23 |

The Sennheiser CX300-B are good headphones, I but give the product 3 stars for a couple reasons.
First off, these headphones deliver almost exactly the same quality as the Creative Labs EP-630. If you buy the Sennheiser over the Creative Labs, you are getting slightly more bass, and that is it. For around $50, compared to $30, paying 20 more dollars for a slight increase in bass is not worth it. I wouldn't mind if this was an overall better product, but it isn't.
This is mostly a personal reason, but I don't like the "J" cord. The left headphone is much shorter, as the right cable is supposed to go around behind your neck. I find it weird, as all my other headphones have the "Y" cables. I also don't really care for the hooked plug in jack. I prefer headphones that have a straight jack.
If you want to get your money's worth, buy the Creative Labs EP-630. It's almost the exact same headphone for a cheaper price. |

| These headphones Rock! Very comfortable and have good soundstage. The bass response is quite surprising and not overloaded. The highs are crisp and sound balanced while the mid-range is very clean. I am not an audiophile but for the price of these earbuds you dont need to be to appreciate them. |

"Great sound quality for the price" | 2008-05-19 |

| I bought these for my friend and she loves them. I bought J-buds for myself, and I can definitely hear the difference in sound quality between the two. It would be great to have some noise canceling, though, but you need to pay a bit more for that. |
