About this deal

I was going to buy the most acclaimed RE2 but when I saw that those CX300 II are better than the old CX300 I am starting to think twice... Vocals and instrumentation both benefit from this clean and precise presentation. Slightly forward leaning, the mids in the CX 300S offer a refreshing alternative to a v-shaped sound profile. The result is an ample and full sound that seems equally well suited to any genre – but one that abounds with an impressive amount of resolution for the price. High End Yes the new Cx-300-II are an upgrade on the older cx-300. Before the older model i found a little harsh on highs and boomier bass and the new model fills out the mids a little more too. If I had to measure it at this stage with only a few hours use - 10-15% better I suspect it would improve a bit more with use. I found with audio things take awhile to break in (burn in) some people dont believe in it but from my experience in each component and speakers i have bought things have improved with burn in. SOUND Overall Impressions: Bountiful lows, good detail for the price, versatile sound signature. Lows Hi! Nice review!! I would like to know the exact functions of the remote. Can I skip songs and control the volume?

I haven't tried them but people say the CX 300-II is very similar to the CX 400 which has a too strong bass, IMO. I am very disappointed with them – my cheap Samsung earphones that came with my phone sound better!

These are not the best headphones you can buy, but they are incredibly good value. With plenty of volume and a big, meaty sound, it looks like Sennheiser has another hit on its hands. My rating would be soundwise. On the sennhiser cx-300-II I noticed the treble is now more defined and detailed, seperation between instruments are better (more airy), bass tighter, voices are more warm and natural and detailed than the old cx-300. It has al less artificial sound the new model - smoother and less fatigueing. Maybe closer to 25% improvement 8.5/10 (price taken into account) so far. Originally released in late 2008, Sennheiser's CX 300 II Precision earphones are some of the oldest models on the market from the CX Line, but continue to deliver in almost every aspect. For those looking for a high-performance pair of earphones within budget, these are certainly worth considering. Features & Sound The cable itself is slightly flattened to reduce tangles, which it seems to do quite well, and although it’s far from kink-free out of the box, it does hang reasonably straight. some of these web prices are cheaper than in-store, so please mention that you've seen these offers online)

I want to hear all the music details of Trance and Psytrance songs with a good(not heavy) bass,the RE2 as I understand has it all but the Bass,so how's those CX300 II at this stage and how can you compare them to RE2 or even Nuforce Ne-7M??? All too often these sort of in-canal earphones, where the rubber earpiece tips sit in and seal against the outer edge of your ear canal, are scuppered by not reaching far enough into the ear to get a good seal – at least, not without being pushed uncomfortably far in. This can be avoided by having a longer earpiece that gives more room for the tip to reach into your ear without the cable fouling against your earlobe, but a much easier solution is to angle the earpiece to more accurately match the angle of the canal itself, as done here. Wow. I'd grade my CX 500 like 6.5/10 and the CX 400 5.5/10. I wonder how they compare to the CX 300-II or 400-II.So, after reading your opinions, the new cx-300 II don't seem to be a big improvement in sound if compared to the older ones, as I suspected. Anyone comparing the new model with cx-400? Beginning with Alexis Weissenberg’s interpretation of Sergei Rachmaninov’s Prélude No5 in G Minor, the performance sounds human. The headphones capture the dynamics well and you can feel Weissenberg becoming alternately aggressive and withdrawn as he moves through the piece. Carroll is a headphone junkie residing in Brooklyn.

I have a quite old pair of Sennheiser earphones which are fabulous, but they don’t have a microphone, so I thought I would get a couple of pairs of Sennheiser CX 300S earphones.It doesn't take a genius to calculate the CX 300-IIs offer sensational value; they're a simple and extremely effective upgrade. Yes the new cx-300ii is not perfect I still think the bass could be tighter, it dosent have the big soundstage of my AKG, the mids are not as full as they could be, and not the top end is not open as it could be either, and it dosent have all the detail either. But for the price to me its very good value, its musical and sweet sounding, smooth, fairly open and detailed, reasonably well balance tonally probably slight emphasis on bass though, and compared to the old model it is better.

Sennheiser CX 300-II Noise cancelling Earbuds Headphones

If you're looking for an affordable, decent-sounding pair of earbuds, start with the Sennheiser CX 300. Sennheiser's first in-ear design sounds like a winner to us. They do require some running in before they perform at their best, but after a few hours of play your music's high frequencies sound crisp and fresh, while bass notes display dexterity and discipline. You might find yourself thinking that in an increasingly wireless world Bluetooth headphones have completely taken over the market, and you wouldn’t be totally wrong. However, despite everything now becoming wireless, you’d be surprised how popular the trusty wired headphone is. With that, I’m here to talk about a little something from headphone behemoth Sennheiser, with their CX300S in-ear wired headphones.

The CX 300S presents a fairly spacious soundstage. Though you can’t call the sound experience holographic, there is some depth there. And imaging is precise enough to hear degrees of width with respect to instrument placement. SUMMARY These Sennheisers, then, fit in totally effortlessly, providing an instant and utterly comfortable seal with the default medium-size eartips. If your ears are particularly deep, you may still find the cable fouls against your ear before you can get a good seal, but you can get round this by looping the cable over your ear and inverting the earpiece.
