Another which In-earphone to get?

Okay,

I've had my Seinhesser CX300 for a while now, and I just bought an ipod 80GB and have noticed they don't sound too great with it, as the bass seems really distorted or too weak, they are nice headphones however quite budget..

I am looking at earphones with price range of 50 quid to 100 quid, obviously the cheaper the better...

was really interested by these

http://www.trustedreviews.com/multim...-Headphones/p1

and the other Ultimate Ears earphones...

I want a decent bass, and I mean decent, I got the big HD280 headphones and had to give them back because of such poor bass.... and these seinhessers on the other hand distort the bass too much...

can anyone suggest a really decent inner ear phone for me? I would GREATLY appreciate it

just to add I listen to mainly hip hop and a bit of rock, so really appreciate bass ;-)

Cheers guys

Re: Another which In-earphone to get?

The Pro's are better if you can stretch to them. I've heard it said that the EBs bass is rather over the top but if thats what you like then fair enough.

Got to say I'm really surprised you find cx300 bass weak, unless you havent got a proper seal, or the ipod has crap SQ, because mine sound impressively punchy out of a £30 Creative Zen Stone, unless I havent got a proper seal. I listen to a lot of bass driven music so its quite important to me.
