how is Sony MDR-EX32LP in-ear headphones?

[desiibond]

Does anyone own MDR-EX32LP. If yes, is it a worthy buy. i am trying to get either this one or Creative EP-630. Please suggest

^^get EP630 .its great as many forum members own it and have given plus points to it.I use sony MDR-E8880 .its better than some creative earphones.

Try out the different rubber tips. You'll get the most bass with the one that fits you best.

 

[desiibond]

yeap. I tried all of them. Medium sized buds provided perfect noise isolation. I am not saying that bass is low. Compared to my previous apple in-ear headphones, Sony MDR-E818LP, the bass in EP-630 is low but highs and mid's are crisp and clear. In the end, extremely satisfied as I now keep my ipod volume at 20-30% compared to 50+ with E818LP while on road.

desiibond Can you please tell me from where you purchased the EP 630 headphones? Is it from Delhi? I'm planning to buy one but having a tough time getting one here!

 

[desiibond]

at Bangalore. Planet M. You can also get it in Temptation stores. Check there.

 

[utsav]

^^ for how much

 

[desiibond]

Rs. 1250

also, you can get the same at SP Road (Vishal Infotech, creative resale partner) for 1150+tax.

 

[utsav]

i think u paid more than for what its currently available.its available for 900Rs in many places

 

[azzu]

1250 nice Deal
looking forward for gettin one

 

[ajayritik]

Utsav do you know about the places where its available for around Rs 900?

 

[utsav]

many members have posted in this forum that its available for around 900Rs.try searching in this forum.

As far as i remember the members were mostly from Mumbai.

 

[desiibond]

Yes. It's available for 900-950 bucks without bill(w/o warranty). But I don't want to take risk. If I go to SP road, I can get it for 1150 bucks but to and fro charges will cost another 100 bucks (auto). that is why I bought it in Brigade road for 1250.

Looks like these earphones had burn-in period. after few days of listening (only 1-2 hours per day), now they are producing terrific crisp bass.

I didn't knew EP-630 had a burn-in period. Also after burn-in, speakers usually create deeper bass which is less tight.

 

[Pathik]

i didnt know that any earphone has a burn-in period..

 

[krazzy]

^^ Some of the audiophile grade, high-end earphones do have certain manufacturer specified burn-in period. But the low-end earphones usually provide almost 100% performance out of the box.

 

[desiibond]

yes. EP-630 has burn-in period. Some people mentioned in anythingbuipod forums that few companies like Sennheiser does the in factory burn-in for their earphones/headphones and creative EP-630 has minimum of 10 hour burn-in.
