Do give the SE215 SPE a try - pricing is $219 with free comply foams this month!

what is the cheapest wireless headphone you have in your shop? Want to listen radio with it using my desktop internet radio
Philips have it but using infrared but what si your comfortable price range? The $199 one is using wireless so you do not need a direct line of sight like infrared ones.

To me "Flat Wire" and "Durable" don't go hand in hand :s22:

Ultimately is how you treat the earphone, treat it like a queen and it will treat you like a king :o

thanks for helping. Actually I don't mind $80 if the cheapest cost this much but of course if it cost $30 I will be happy.

I don't want use extender as I am constrained by the wire. Just like using a corded vs cordless mouse

You can also consider getting bluetooth earphones.

Need new DAP to go with Westone 4R. Any suggestions below $500? Usual FLAC + mp3. SQ is most important, followed by battery life.

Hi.
Do you guys have any recommendations on which earphones should i buy?

A cheap and decent one.
- Normal kind. Like the iphone original earphones, not the in-ear ones.
- Budget less than $50

Used to have sennheiser mx400 i think.. Just need a normal one.
Bought a few no branded ones at Qoo10 but the volume of the earphones is very low.

Can share which IEM you tested there? And why choose and buy that final IEM? Thanks
