Hey, so I just upgraded from the Sony MDR-EX51LP ( http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-EX51LP-Fontopia-Headphones-White/dp/B000779RZU/ref=dp_cp_ob_e_title_1 )

To a pair of Sennheiser CX 200 street 2 ( http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-200-Ear-Canal-bud/dp/B001OIK50C/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=miscellaneous&qid=1241473609&sr=8-1 )

it has a different sound and all but I was wondering which would be better? I hope I made a good buy, it says the frequency response of the Sennheisers is 20-20,000, and the sony go from 6-23,000
Does it even matter? Let me know if any of you have tried these.. post which you think are better.

Thanks.

Most of those little things arn't even audible.
They're probably just a little bit better quality

Well what makes them sound different? The sennheiser's have more bass, but they haven't warn in yet (only been listening for like 20 minutes) but the sony's felt, I dunno.. just more free. Just less muffled.

imo just keep your old head phones until you can up grade to any kind of Bose ear buds / head phones. Expensive, but worth all the money. They're amazingly clear, I have the 100 dollar ear buds and I hear all the base and even the really soft high notes as well. On top of that, you can hear much more clearly without raising the volume to half of what the other headphones need. If you decide to crank the volume up all the way anyways, no body but you will hear a thing!

Meh.. bose?

You're joking right? Bose has the absolute best quality for anything stereo / head phone related on the freakin' market lol.

I've heard differently.
Literally..
I'm just confused in the market of in-ear head phones.

Edit: These .

I've had a great experience with any Bose system, I've definitely liked them more than my Aiwa or Sony systems. I just read a few reviews praising Bose over other systems, and a few talking about how it was a waste of money... I guess I could be wrong, but so far i've had an awesome Bose radio for about 10 years and got these nice ear buds a few years back and they sound really good -- i don't really have anything to complain about.

Oh, either do I! Bose is great, i'm just saying they aren't the best by any extent.

Headphones:
Bose sucks.
Skull Candy sucks.

Sennheiser GG

But in general, the earbud headphones mostly really sound the same and usually easily break.
