Well designed, lightweight, great fit, top sound April 10, 2008

I previously owned the Shure E3c earphones but didn't get on with them at all. Bass was really really weak, and found them very uncomfortable and intrusive.
Took a risk and bought the Sennheiser CX 500's and was blown away.
The sound, especially bass, is really good (I actually had to turn the bass down on my ipod eq to listen to rock/metal - but would be superb for dance etc.)
They fit really well, just sit inside the ears, no need to squeeze them in until they're almost touching your brain. Just pop them in to get a good seal.
They are also extremely lightweight(earphones and the cable) which means you hardly feel them, and also they stay in your ears.
The high range doesn't quite match the E3C's with their 'microdriver technology' , symbols, high pitch guitar solos etc. just aren't as rich and full (hence only 4*'s), but the quality bass really does improve the overall sound. I guess it depends what you are listening to.
Fantastic price on amazon as well. Checked the highstreet, and the CX300 (2 models down) were retailing for almost the same (couldn't find CX500's anywhere)
The volume control is handy, its just a little plastic slider but does the job and saves you reaching for your mp3 player.
Also comes with a nice cable tidy and carry bag.
all in all a great deal, comfertable good sound - would highly recommend.
Much better then Sennheiser CX300 January 21, 2008

like the Sennheiser CX300 the cable is still to short
but the sound is fantastic a big improvement on earlier models also the cable is now rubberized so there is not the problem of that horrible feedback , they feel well made and look great and come with a bag a winder thingy :-)
would give 5 stars if the cable was a little longer but maybe im the only one who thinks that
