I am looking for a replacement headphones to listen to MP3's on a Sony
-Ericsson p900 mobile phone, and cash funds willing, an iPod in the

near
future.

I'm looking for something smallish.
I've had a look at a few:

Sony MDR-EX71SLB earbuds


I've a set of these, and they're very good for when you're out and about

as
they block out nearly all the outside sound. The only problem is that

you
start hearing your own breathing because all the other background noise

is
pretty much miffled out. They sound loud because there isn't really any
background noise, just the music, but I've no idea of what their

sensitivity
is compared to other headphones.


Cheers Doki
I'm kinda heading towards buying a set of these. I would prefer the PX200
for sound quality, but with the Sony's I can just shove them in my pocket
when I go out.


They're not bad actually. Far better than most earphones and they actually
seem to produce half decent bass.
