In ear headphones £20 budget

Hi i want some decent earphones, just for listening to music through one ear while i'm at work, i need the other ear incase someone needs me! Therefore sound insulation is not a big deal.

Do i go seinheiser with the cx 300, or 500? Or sony?

Thanks

Re: In ear headphones £20 budget

I have the sennheisers and I am veryhappy with them. A few mates have tried them and bought sets also as they were impressed. Check out play.com as they are normally cheapest there.

Re: In ear headphones £20 budget

Andy what do you think of these?
Sennheiser CX 300 II Precision Noise Isolating: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

worth the extra £10 over the original cx-300's :S

I heard Denon were v.good maybe i should look at a pair of them. If not i'll prob treat myself to a pair of those

Do u know what the cx-500's are like in comparison to the 300's?

Play.com (UK) : Sennheiser CX 300 In-Ear Headphones (Black) : Electronics - Free Delivery

They get even cheaper.

I'm not really sure what the differences are between the mark I and II but to be honest if your only using 1 ear its not going to be a huge difference.

What will they be plugged into?

Re: In ear headphones £20 budget

Just my 2p because i know that loads of people like the CX300's but i found that they became very uncomfortable very quickly.
