These are awesome - bassy and definitely loud enough.

I paid about 40 quid just before christmas

Sennheiser never disappoint when it comes to headphones.

When traveling on an airplane are these good for sound isolation etc. How do they compare to the Shure E2c's: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Shure-E2C-N-...&s=electronics
The Shures are over twice the price but are they worth it?

Not sure which one's I'd be best to go for.

Sound isolation is tip-top so save some money and get these!

Same here, there a great set of headphones well worth £14.35.

Good find GTI

Went to get these and they're up to £16.39 now, won't get em out of principle now. £2 is £2 and I hardly even need em really in 1st place just though they seemed good enuf offer.

Hmm. Just noticed 3rd party guys selling them on amazon for £7.38-£7.99, think it's £4.50 delivery so just under £12 delivered. Sounds like better deal than previously. That is if they're genuine and not fakes... any way to tell difference, apart from the sound (as I won't have listened to real ones, then fake ones to know difference)?

I was reading the reviews for the shure headphones yesterday & someone said they bought some from a marketplace seller & they were fake. He found some spec measurements on the shure site & they didn't match up to the ones he was supplied with. He got a refund & agreed not to report them. You can find the review using the shure link above. I ordered the shures.

Just got my pair, i have a feeling these are fake. the plastic is of very cheap quality, the cable feels quite cheap and like a hard material. also whilst the sounds is fantastic anything with bass gives a slight crackle in the left ear.

i bought the silver ones by the way

Both the Sennheiser CX300 and the identical Creative EP-630 have been heavily cloned in the far East and Ebay is flooded with sub-standard copies... so its worth paying a few extra ££ for the genuine articles off Amazon. But if you're saying that the ones you got off Amazon (not market place) are fakes, I would be very surprised.

[drunkn_munky]

If it looks to good to be true, it is. Pay the extra and be sure.

[joe3k]

So u reckon buy the ones off amazon and not the amazon third party guys? Surely there's a way to tell the fakes from the real ones?

[joe3k]

Just after pushed on and bough them at the £16.35. ope they're as good as you guys seem to think.
