Replacing Sennheiser Earphones.

[reddevilandy10]

Morning guys,

For Christmas I got a pair of Sennheiser MX470 earphones. They're one of the best pairs I've ever used but the problem is they tend to give me a headache after about 10 minutes of listening. I noticed that since my last pair of earphones (Phillips SHE1501) I can't listen to any earphones if they are not in-ears.

I intend to take the Sennheisers back and maybe get an in-ear model from them in return.

So, the question is what would be my best bet (manufacturer/model) at this price range? I believe the MX470's are about R400.

Thanks!

Arent they "in-ear" earphones?

Maybe try the CX line of Sennheisers ? They are really comfortable, plus you get different sized rubbers for them too.

It is easier on the ear than the hard plastic types like those MX470 (or the general i-pod'ish earphones)

No just standard earphones. That's the problem.

Thanks Digilus, I'll have a look at those for sure.
