Your MP3 Player/Earphones?

by ScarZy • 28 Sep 2011, 16:49 • Journals
What MP3 player do you have? What is the memory capacity of it?

I am using the Sandisk Clip+ [2GB + 16GB SD Card) which I STOLE FROM A MARKET IN AMSTERDAM. OOPS. whilst away.

image: money

I would buy an Ipod Classic but I don't have the money yet and this is a great substitute.

Earphones: Here I use the SoundMAGIC PL-50 balanced over ear earphones which I take almost everywhere with me together with my clip+.

Used to have that sandisk myself too, lost it though, it was suprisingly good value for money and durable as hell.

Now just phone (n900 32gb) & spark-plugs. Ordered these last week, might be handy if sitting out or somewhere without other speakers, http://www.dealextreme.com/p/foldable-speakers-4 If they are shit, who cares, nearly free.

How do you find your earphones? :)

Krii 28 Sep 2011, 22:17
they are pretty good
i cant say I ever used expensive headphones but I must say im very happy with these
I bought them for 16 euros or smth while they just came out
it was some special action from www.mp4nation.net

Glad to hear, I looked at them as well as some others which I now forgot the name of but could find out I guess. I decided on the PL-50s because they seemed like a good choice considering the music that I generally listen to.

Also I can see my reflection in the window whilst typing this and your hands look really weird when youre so used to typing.

:)

I just ordered these http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/-/3178/2445/-/18925341/Sony-ZX300-Over-Ear-Headphones-White/Product.html

A great price imo and the reviews look good.

Mines cost 80€. I prefer over ears headphones than on ears. It's way better, totally immersive :)

ye idd headphones are much better than earphones, I just got these cos theyre cheap and look good :) but in the future i might get some more expensive ones.

Bought it as a kit, they're not that hard to build though http://tangentsoft.net/audio/cmoy-tutorial/ otherwise I'd recommend buying from this seller here http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/juice2214/m.html?_trksid=p4340.l2562

Nokia N900, and use Porta Pros as headphones. Obviously not an optimal choice for noisy enviroments, but I live in a small town so it's not an issue. Not that Finnish cities are particularly noisy to begin with.
▼
Thomm 28 Sep 2011, 18:47
Portas are better in cities, I can't hear any trafic or anything while cycling with spark-plugs, often have to use just one plug :)
Parent

Burneddi 28 Sep 2011, 18:59
True, true, I prefer that too. It's just that noise cancellation/isolation seems to be such a big deal nowadays.

Cant really say I like it all that much though. I'd prefer an ipod, which I have but the screen doesnt work anymore though it still plays music :p, and maybe some nice headphones instead of plugs :)

player: Cowon J3 16GB
phones: Audio-Technica ATH-EW9 (thinking of getting ATH-CK10 too, for some ambient noise isolation when I need it)

from time to time, I use my Samsung Galaxy S2 but mostly for video due to better codec support + bigger screen. Too bad nothing can match Cowon in SQ so I am all the time equipped with 2 devices :(

Skullcandy sound like shit. The cx500s I had were white, and the bass was good.
Parent
▼
pala 28 Sep 2011, 22:25
did the cx500 have mic + control? (sound etc)
Parent
▼
ScarZy 28 Sep 2011, 22:28
I'm afraid they don't have a mic, but DO have a volume slider that changes the earphone resistance.
Parent
▼
pala 28 Sep 2011, 22:33
strange, in the stores they mention they do have mic...anyways the prices are insane, are there any huge differences between the CX's so i could go for a lower one?
Parent

ScarZy 28 Sep 2011, 22:35
I _think_ the drivers in the 300II and 500s are the same, I could be wrong though.

I got the 500s upon first release also, which means they could have been upgraded since then.
