You might also want to consider the Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 Studio. They are very accurate and precise sounding earphone for the money.

Some comment on the lack of bass with the UE Super.fi 3 Studio, but my personal preference is over accuracy rather than strong bass response. For example I really don't like the overly heavy bass response of the Sennheiser CX series.

The Ultimate Ears Super.fi 5 Pro is a VERY nice sounding earphone and has a more balanced response, including the lower end, but is a lot over your budget.

Cheers

My mate has the E2C and I personally found my CX300 sounded just as good for half the price. The Creative EP630 is cheaper again and sounds just as good still.

For £30 you can buy Mylarone X3i, if you are prepared to wait 2 weeks for delivery.

Buy from Jaben net in Singapore, good service (they actually get shipped from UK distributor after Paypal payment is complete). Very good sound for relatively little money.
