The list needs updating. ES18 isn't available anywhere for less tan rs500

What's the best option under 1.5k ? I am confused between cx180 and pl30. I'll use them while jogging so is pl30 going to be better ?
But then cx180 has better build quality and 1 year more warranty. Confused :-?

I am currently using ES18 with ipod touch 4G. i am happy with its performance but thinking about upgrading. something more bassy [i'm n00b in music/audio stuff. bass is all i understand and like]. i think ES18 is enough but hunger for more bass is growing day by day

i am thinking about senn CX180, does it worth upgrading over ES18 ?? considering i am bass lover?

my budget is 1.5k

Hey, Till date, I was a loyal buyer of EP630, but the last one gone kaput, thinking of buying a new IEM, and this time I will go for a cheaper one, may be Soundmagic PL11. Is it better than EP630? Or I am just going to waste my 600bucks for that?

Soundmagic ES18 is the best under 1K.

Soundmagic ES18 is the best under 1k. I have had it for 1.5 years and It got torn but still somehow works. I have used JBL tempo, Panasonic HJE120 ,JVC marashamellow and the above philips but none could come close to soundmagic.

Yes....

But Cowon EM1 will be better option.

Cowon EM1 Is better optin indeed but its also harder to drive with its 10mm driver.

You have not used Cowon EM1 Its the best under 1k. Philips SHE 3590BL is better than creative EP 630 both have small driver both can easily isolate you from out side noise. But creative Is sub bass heavy While philips has a v shaped sonic signature which to me is better.

Sound Magic PL-11
Sennheiser CX 180

which one would you buy?
i prefer bass on the heavier side but also listen to slow songs
so mids & lows also important
