I used safely for more than a year, the Creative EP-630 In Ear Earphones. In-ear, since I live in Berlin (very noisy) and still would like to hear soft music, or ever want to listen to music without damaging my ears. And I do not want huge Headphones (closed) on the street wear ('m vain, do not want to haul a lot and in summer large closed headphones are too warm). With in-ear headphones, all this is possible, I am still grateful for this development.
It is here but not to In Ear to open etc, but a product of the class of in-ear headphones. So it is nonsense to write here that you can hear sounds louder own, or fit in the ear is particular important for the sound quality, etc. (because that is all in ear earphones so). Try it out! For me (as Filmmusikfan who likes his ears) is a great thing!
I only said this because here are some deductions for things give are nunmal in such typical earbuds.
The Creative EP 630 were great! Now they are on their vulnerability still failed (bad contact behind the plug). In many (therefore on average only 4 stars for Creative) this would happen even more quickly.
Now I looked around and discovered this Sennheiser Headphones (similar price range):
There are also included 3 different sized rubber attachments.
The sound is as good as the sound of the Creative EP 630. More Bass? Hard to say. Too much bass? I can not find my EQ I need not try to. Anyway, it is true that you need to loudly enough to be very little power. Instead max. at level 10 (of 50)
hear, I hear with these earphones max. at level 7-8 (Cowon D2). Amazing and energy saving. The build quality is better, one sees immediately that the cable is guided more secure (from the male) and this is a really important point (besides sound).
Compared to the Creative EP 630 (and only comparisons bring forward):
- Slightly more power efficient
- Better processing ("loose contact-drawback" of EP 630!)
- 5 expensive (currently)
These are the essential things and the processing has prompted me 5 ausugeben more. For me, they have still kept relatively long the EP 630, but as you read worse things.
So why not 5 stars, do not know what should be a deduction. (Because my cable is too rubbery? So please ... O_o)
