Hello!

I am looking for a pair of solid quality in-ear headphones in the $30-$50USD range and was looking to see what you guys recommended. I've heard good things about the Sennheiser MX300 Mark 2's and the Soundmagic E10's (with the replacement foam buds of course) but wanted some other options/opinions on these two sets. Thanks!

I don't know much about the Sennheiser ones, but I'm using the E10's atm, and I think they're awesome for the price. I especially love how the cord resists tangling/knotting. <3 (It still can knot up a little bit if you're not careful, but not as badly as other earbuds I've owned)

Sennheisers cables are shoddy, so I'd definitely recommend the E10.

No reason why they should sound any different

 

different wiring in the inline control man, 99.8% copper instead of 99.9% gives warmer sound, .05% difference in resolution of audio track /s

 

:D

 

 

 

I vote e10, they are good for the price according to a zillion reviews
