Worth looking at these as well - Creative Labs EP-630/A , bought these to replace a pair of CX300 IIs and they are significantly better with very good deep bass. More comfortable as well.

Can be found on Amazon for £7.61. Creative Labs EP-630/A Earphones: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

Re: Sennheiser CX300 II or Sennheiser CX500 ?

still cant decide.........
the main swinger at the moment is the 500's are only available in white for the same money as the 300 II's in black
.....would prefer black but if the sound quality difference is a significant jump up then i'd put up with the 'i've got a i pod' white.
cheers.
