Hi,

In past 3 months i think i have spent like more than Rs 800+ on buying different earphones. None of the desi ones worked for more than like 2 days. The bought some philips ones and they were working great from past 2 weeks but right side earphone went kaput today now voice KAPISH...

Now i am very pissed on these earphones. I want to buy some earphones that atleast work for like 6 month damnit.. Which ones to go for. My budget is like Rs. 500 - 600.

I have to use these with laptop coz i cant carry my big headphones all the time with me...

I want something which is good and do not die on me soon...

Check out the similar thread I had started sometime back abhibh, I would suggest you to shell out some extra money and buy decent ear phones from shure, bose, sennheiser than wasting your money in parts on cheaper ones.

I have heard some Creative headphones and they are good...

No headphones only earphones please....

oh ho they are earphones....they have two models one is for 400 and the other is for 1.5k .....check them out at any good music store...

BTW i have seen that the earphones we get with mobile phones SONY and NOKIA are quiet good i abuse them a lot daily and they are going strong for like more than a year. Are there any thing like that available in market.

I've been using a set of earphones from Sennheiser which I bought for $10 about 2 years back. They are still working great, check them out I think they too are available in our market.

Panasonic In-Ear earphones (bud type) cost around 2000 but its worth it, til now i have not come across a better earphone

Anyone used Altec earphones ??

IT-Depot

I will be getting my shure E2C/E3C in August, so will let you know about how they perform. :)

I have a pair of Altec Lansing earphones for listening at my ofice from the laptop. Been using them for about 2 years. No issues so far. Have some Grados at home, but they are too bulky to carry around.

Sennheiser or sony, they are bit costly as compared to others, but never fails....

Get the creative EP-630 earphones. Costs only 1200/- but are much much better than any brand in that range.
A "go" (bulk order) is being organised in Techenclave. I also have ordered mine. Go price is Rs. 880.
Hurry up i think the Go is ending soon.

Ah! My kinda topic ;)

1st things 1st.. stay a million miles away from Bose. They are OK but way too overpriced for the performance.

For a decent performance in your budget, look for Sennheiser MX-400 / MX-500. If you dont ming clip-ons and a lil more budget get a Koss C75. Best value for money.

Ofc. if money is no concern there are always things like Westone, Ultimate Ears, Shure, etc. for earphones.

@appuchan can you tell me the model number as i gonna use them with laptop too only. And is there any problem if i pump up the volume :) with these

@DCEite thanks i will look at that techenclave now . Forgot my username / password stupid:
