Thanks: Gave 1, Got 0 | Best headphones on a £20 - £30 budget
Hi, im looking for a new pair of headphones for my ipod video, im currently still using the white ipod headphones that came with my ipod mini which i got about 3 years ago
I dont want to spend too much money,im on a budget of around £20 - £30
Ive seen many good reviews for the CX300, which are £17 on amazon. Ive also heard good things about the CX400 which are a little over £30 on amazon
So i was wondering is there a big difference between the two, and is there any other headphones that are better in this price range
i only want to buy in-ear headphones
thanks in advance

thanks in advance | Go for the best you can afford... The CX300 are very good, the CX400 sould be better, and have a carrying pouch, symmetrical cable, extra cord...

Hey - I don't know whether you've already bought something, or these are too expensive, but I made a similar thread which returned these results: Link.
They are excellent.

CX300 and the CX series for very good and good price...
Etymotic ER6i or Shure 210 for very good and expensive...

Beyerdynamic DT-231 is my standard recommendation in that price range.

Sorry to go slightly off topic, but I always loved that signature wherever I have seen it
Well done. |
