Just try it, Koray.

[Joey]

you guys have luck with Sony products, every sony product I've bought is junk.

[Wojo]

I really like Sony cameras. Though my next one will not be a Sony.

That's weird that happens to you.

Edit: Wojo, I've got a Sony Cybershot but ya my next camera won't be a Sony probably will be a Canon Rebel.

[Wojo]

I'm thinking Canon or Nikon. I've got an underwater case for my camera, which is the main reason I'm holding onto it, if only to keep it safe in the rain and snow. But it's five years old, 3x optical zoom, and 4.1 MP. I need an SLR with a huge long range optical zoom.

[Koray Savas]

Uhm... no.

Kinda. Why listen to your earbuds while driving if the radio is right there? Why listen on headphones if the speakers are right there? I know what it sounds like on the headphones, it's not like the second I plug them in I'm gonna be stunned by the sound quality.

no, you need an SLR and a bunch of lenses covering a good range of focal lengths. All in one lenses with huge ranges arent very good optically.

[Koray Savas]

I have a Canon Digital Rebel. The lens sucks ass, but that's because it's the standard one. Good lenses are too expensive.

everything I've ever owned that had sony turned out to be junk.

I've had better luck with other brands. Course I never had any sony headphones.

After a crap sony cd player and dvd player, and walkman, I gave up on them.

[Mark Olivarez]

I have a Canon EOS Rebel. I've had it for 16 years and I wouldn't trade it for anything else.

That's kinda like saying, listen to your iPod while driving, instead of using the radio.

I listen to my iPod while driving.

[Koray Savas]

Yeah, through your car speakers, not with headphones.

[Mark Olivarez]

Perhaps.......

[John Crichton]

You're driving in front of me from now on.

You're driving in front of me from now on.

don't you mean behind you? do you really want to have him crash in front of you.

[John Crichton]

[Drax]

That's because Sony products are overrated junk.

[Lurker]

Sony hit a home run with this product!

Mm, I thought that was rather humorous, but the swearing got really annoying after the 25th time.

[Mr. Breathmask]

So much for our language filter.

[John Crichton]

Not exacly AVGN levels of creative swearing, but it works.

John- who's never gotten anything but quality from Sony

[king mark]

It's true that Sony products are a pain in the ass to use....especially their MP3 players with SonicStage software and ATRAC files..

I tried one before my ipod. They would actually add DRM on MY OWN MP3's before loading them into the player (not only did it take forever,but it's just wrong) . And it sounded like crap with max volume waaay too low (about 1/3 the max volume of ipods...not enough to drive most earphones).I'm sure they improved since then but it left a really bad impression.

[John Crichton]

My Sony Walkman is very easy to use. I'm uploading everthing in Windows Lossless and have had no problems. Sounds great too, with the right headphones.

[king mark]

It should have a sound output high enough to drive more than "certain earphones" .

[Charlie Brigden]

I bought these today. They're very good so far.

[Blumenkohl]

Koray...


Listening to music on standard iPod ear buds or Laptop speakers is like being a Florist with red-green color blindness.

Might I recommend: http://www.head-dire..._detail.php?p=5

[Koray Savas]

I'm quite content with the set up I have already. I have thought about picking up these instead of using the built-in speakers.

[Jason LeBlanc]

Are either of these any good?

Doesn't really answer your question per se, but the Shures I got recently are now hte same price as the Sennheisers in the link you posted. And they are good.

http://www.amazon.co...M...8602&sr=1-1

[king mark]

there is NEW Shures.I might get some:

[Jason LeBlanc]

Seems expensive for ear buds

[BurgaFlippinMan]

but good they are.

[Jason LeBlanc]

Talking like Yoda you are

[Trent Bennett]

http://www.shure.com/NewProducts/SE115

Nice, they're on Amazon for $102 right now. I may get some as well.

[king mark]

After reading this review ,I had to try a pair of the new Shure SE115

http://i.gizmodo.com...he-new-top-buds

Edit: After 1 full day of listening I can say they gave a great first impression but they have too much bass therefore have a muddy sound.

[Trent Bennett]

I may have to get a pair of those Shure's this year my current ear buds are starting to fall apart. Well the rubber that is on the buds themselves is falling apart.

[king mark]

Shure SE 115: Too much bass /muddy highs ...back to the store they go. Probably better suited for rock music than film scores .


Shure E2C (also called the I2C and SE 102) are still my favourite ,but are a bit bulky and uncomfortable ...that's why I want to find better ones in that respect.

[king mark]

Now I am trying these Apple in ear (new 2009 model) ,they were also on my short list.

http://www.apple.com...nearheadphones/

Are these the ones? Stay tuned

**Edit: Apple in Ear Review:

Over pronounced mids and lack of bass making them sound "thin" , although they have decent detail in the music .I guess they did that for vocals but for film scores they suck

There was a opened package of those Skullcandy Titans Neil mentioned so I tried them on the spot. They had a nice and even range, but a bit of a sibilance in the 4k range .I think they need to be equalized

[Maglorfin]

THE headphones.
