While I very much doubt your ‘$18 earbuds’ are anywhere near the quality of these Sennheiser ones, I would still like to know what they are and where you purchased them. Please elaborate. A link maybe?
Earbuds are cheaper and if they’re not uncomfortable, they’re really the better deal. The only advantages these things have is that A.) they’re wireless and B.) they’re semi-kind-of-maybe over-the-ear. Sound quality is likely crap, but if you’re listening to low-quality mp3’s, maybe that’s not such a big deal.
I dunno - for my 100 ducats, I’d rather get some decent, noise-canceling, professional-type headphones with a cord.
I have a pair of the MM450-X’s (i.e. the next step up that adds active noise cancellation). They are great: high quality sound, good battery life, okay passive isolation, nice detachable cord that works if the battery dies, replaceable battery, micro USB for charging, and a good small case for travel. Bluetooth has been pretty solid too with my iPhones (Aside, iOS lacks support for the “APT-X” lossless audio bluetooth protocol, but I don’t do enough critical listening to notice.)
Sennheiser also has good customer support: I’d originally purchased the MM450’s and they developed a problem where they’d reset every time I hit the “next track” button. I mailed them in and they replaced them with the new “-X” model.
Back in the old days of Woot, the last B-O-C I was able to order had a pair of either these or the MM400s in them (I can’t remember which). That was definitely my most exciting B-O-C score.
