for Christmas. I had asked for replacement ear buds for the ones that came with the Nano. The original ones didn't do a good job of blocking out the sounds in the gym that I workout at.Here's the quick synopsis:
Pros: Good bass response, noise canceling and more comfortable than the original Nano earphones
Cons: I wish the length of the earphones where even. The left cord is shorter than the right.
For the past year I had been using the standard Nano earphones that came with the player. Because of the level of ambient noise at the gym, I've had to turn up the volume to sometimes three quarters of the way up to hear my music. So this year I asked for some replacement earphones for Christmas. What I got was the Sennheiser CX300. It came with three different size covers. I ended up using the medium ones. When I first tried them on I immediately noticed all the background noise in the house was gone. I was also pleasently suprised at the better bass response I was getting from them.
The real test was when I worked out yesterday. I was able to cut the volume by 45 - 50% over what the previous levels were. At least now I don't have to worry as much about damaging my hearing. The only thing I found kind of annoying was the fact the cord for the left earphone was shorter than the right. Call me old school, but I like both cords to be the same length.
