so ur suggesting the MDR-E818LP over XD200/XD300???
the SONY WORLD guys said that XD200 has better bass reproduction over E818LP.
also XD300 is 1500 bucks more than XD200.
XD200/300 are good only for indoor listening. Buying headphones for 2k/3k bucks and using it only when at home does not make sense. Right? Since you said that you can't get Creative headphones, I thought it's better to take 818LP for Rs500 and wait till you see creative's series.
If you are going to use headphones ONLY indoors, just go for XD200 or Philips 2700. For mobility, never ever go for full sized headphones. Best for mobility are PX-100 like headphones (in terms of size) and in-ear headphones comes next.
1) Indoors only : XD series/ philips 2700/ Creative HN-700
2) Indoors and outdoors : Sennheiser PX series/CX series, Creative EP-630, Sony Ex-monitoring style in-ear headphones, E818LP
3) Noisy environment : Sony Ex-monitoring style in-ear headphones, EP-630, PX-300. Any noise cancelling/isolating headphones.
Is this clear for you now?
