these are surprisingly good phones JVC HA-F130-WE - GUMY In-Ear Headphone with Colour Cord: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

i have some, i'm quite picky about sound quality and these seem to offer a well rounded sound, you can also wear them for aggges without them hurting unlike full in-ear headphones

they are also a fiver from hmv: http://hmv.com/hmvweb/simpleSearch.d...bmitSearch.y=0

The Creative EP-630's are reputed to be the same as the CX-300's - I have a pair and they are orders of magnitude better than the bog standard ones you get with an ipod.

Amazon are doing them right now for £6 - Creative Labs EP-630/A Earphones: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo . At that price its got to be worth a try.

Hope this helps.

They certainly look identical (logo aside), and if they same I agree the difference is amazing. Just one word of warning (and this applies to all 'in the ear' phones, never eat while wearing them - it gets amplified like there's a T'Rex munching crsips inside your head).

And don't tell my mum, she paid £15 for my Senny's for xmas

I just received my Live NX-200 Stereo Headset for ipod. I saw it on Apple iPod Touch Accessories,2G,3G Best iPod Accessories and ordered there. It was low at price as well. They are quite comfortable, why shouldn't you try it. Worthy other iphone accessories are also listed there at discounted price than market. I am happy to have this one for my ipod touch.
