Yes there are better headphones if you can put more money but settling for EP-630 is better coz the price is Rs.1200 and putting 3000 bucks on earphones for N95does not make sense. Just my opinion. Instead, get Bluetooth stereo headset for N95 (like the one from Motorola). You need not remove earphones everytime you get a call on your phone.

Check out Fontopia in Sony.

Also check out Sennheiser Active noise cancelling headphones. PX-300 is the model number I think.

You can check mdr-ex85lp. costs 3k. But I have no idea how they compare with EP-630. I am using EP-630 and I just love them.

BTW, there are street style active noise cancelling headphones from creative. You can get them for 3.5k i think. I saw them at Temptations store, Brigade Road, Bangalore and they look really great (sounds great too with perfect noise isolation)

also check EX52SL

These are dual style closed in-ear headphones supplied with a detachable clip-on hanger providing a stable fit (changes to over the ear like the ones that used by on-stage artists)

hey guys...
did you know that the creative ep630 is available in white too? creative made it in white so it will go well with an ipod...
cant believe it...they would do something to woo ipod consumers... considering that they're rivals..

pm'ed you. here's the msg for the benefit of others

hi and gud morning,

i get all my hardware from Nehru Place so i can only guide u there. its shouldn't be too far from Noida actually. You can get it from

Multilink Systems and Services
105, First Floor
Bajaj House,
Nehru Place

Tele No. : 41617562, 41617563

The cost right now is around Rs. 850. This shop is an authorised Creative outlet. They'll give you a bill as well as Creative Guarantee so you can be sure it isn't fake.

As for the earphones, all I can say is they're the best earphones i've ever used. You definitely won't repent having taken them.

I had written a small review on them. You may read it here if u want :

*viewzreviewz.com/creative-ep-...sic-earphones/

Regards

the 3000/- apple headfones are way better than the normal ones but if u go that high u have bose and seinheiser for stiff competition .... go for ep630 they are a little better than the bundled ipod headfones

Just a little better? Btw dunno why but I feel the quality of earphones that were bundled with Shuffle were of a poorer quality than those that come with the new Nano Video. The new ones fit my ear perfectly fine too, and the sound quality is better too.
How can that be possible?

^^ hmm dont know why but i bought them and then compared them both .... though the bass is better no doubt (and it is a lot to do with the fact that these headphones go right into ur ear unlike the others) but wen i turned my ipod to full volume i could make out cracking which wasnt there in the bundled 1 and bass well ya that whr the ep630 are superior and then they are comfortable too but sound quality its "a little better" IMHO

^^ So that means for some casual listening [i hardly use my iPod for more than 3 hours a week] I should not invest in EP-630, and be content with these supposed-to-be-improved bundled earphones.

Right?

Btw, IMHO I think it shud b called an earphone and not a headphone- so pls correct me if am wrong too.

1. comfortable
2. comfortable
3. better bass :D
