About this deal

The CX 300S presents a fairly spacious soundstage. Though you can’t call the sound experience holographic, there is some depth there. And imaging is precise enough to hear degrees of width with respect to instrument placement. SUMMARY The Sennheiser CX 3.00 are great low-cost earphones. They’re lightweight, easy to handle and incredibly comfortable. Their angled design also makes for a top-notch seal, resulting in great bass response and noise isolation. There’s even a choice of four tips and a case.

Slightly smoothed highs prevent the sound from ever becoming too bright or harsh. Of course, in the highest highs, the CX 300S can feel a little intense. But during most of my listening sessions, I was too busy enjoying the overall sound to notice these tiny and infrequent hiccups. Like the lows and mids, the highs abound with detail, and it’s all too easy to get lost in your favorite music with this tiny earphone. Soundstage All too often these sort of in-canal earphones, where the rubber earpiece tips sit in and seal against the outer edge of your ear canal, are scuppered by not reaching far enough into the ear to get a good seal – at least, not without being pushed uncomfortably far in. This can be avoided by having a longer earpiece that gives more room for the tip to reach into your ear without the cable fouling against your earlobe, but a much easier solution is to angle the earpiece to more accurately match the angle of the canal itself, as done here.Just bought a new sennheiser cx-300-II. After 1 hour it sounds better than the old cx-300. A smoother and sweeter sound with a tighter not so boomy bass, more natural mids a bit fuller voices and not as harsh or brittle highs a bit more natural sounding overall headphones. I found the old cx-300 a bit bright and harsh these ones i can actually relax more too- it has more warmth but still with detail. So far Ive only being listening too Gregorian masters of chant. I will update as it burns in more and listen to other music. The old cx-300 I would of given 6.5-7 perhaps for sound, this at least 7.5 out of 10 so far. I haven't tried them but people say the CX 300-II is very similar to the CX 400 which has a too strong bass, IMO. These Sennheisers, then, fit in totally effortlessly, providing an instant and utterly comfortable seal with the default medium-size eartips. If your ears are particularly deep, you may still find the cable fouls against your ear before you can get a good seal, but you can get round this by looping the cable over your ear and inverting the earpiece.

Sennheiser CX 300S Review - Major HiFi

Yes the new Cx-300-II are an upgrade on the older cx-300. Before the older model i found a little harsh on highs and boomier bass and the new model fills out the mids a little more too. If I had to measure it at this stage with only a few hours use - 10-15% better I suspect it would improve a bit more with use. I found with audio things take awhile to break in (burn in) some people dont believe in it but from my experience in each component and speakers i have bought things have improved with burn in. It doesn't take a genius to calculate the CX 300-IIs offer sensational value; they're a simple and extremely effective upgrade. These are not the best headphones you can buy, but they are incredibly good value. With plenty of volume and a big, meaty sound, it looks like Sennheiser has another hit on its hands. Accessories-wise, the CX 300S might seem a little light. Included with the earphones, you’ll find four pairs of silicon eartips and a soft carrying pouch.some of these web prices are cheaper than in-store, so please mention that you've seen these offers online)

With headphones, like most things, you typically get what you pay for. Sennheiser CX-300s are decent value for money but they are definitely low end headphones, no way around it. The earphones themselves feel lightweight but solid, with an air of durability that reminds me of the long-reigning Sennheiser HD1 In-ear. Cabling comes in the form of a no-tangle, elliptical design, replete with an in-line mic and remote. The whole affair measures a standard 4 ft (1.2 m) and terminates in a right-angled 3.5 mm plug. I have a quite old pair of Sennheiser earphones which are fabulous, but they don’t have a microphone, so I thought I would get a couple of pairs of Sennheiser CX 300S earphones. You might find yourself thinking that in an increasingly wireless world Bluetooth headphones have completely taken over the market, and you wouldn’t be totally wrong. However, despite everything now becoming wireless, you’d be surprised how popular the trusty wired headphone is. With that, I’m here to talk about a little something from headphone behemoth Sennheiser, with their CX300S in-ear wired headphones.

What Makes Us Different?

I want to hear all the music details of Trance and Psytrance songs with a good(not heavy) bass,the RE2 as I understand has it all but the Bass,so how's those CX300 II at this stage and how can you compare them to RE2 or even Nuforce Ne-7M??? If you're looking for an affordable, decent-sounding pair of earbuds, start with the Sennheiser CX 300. Sennheiser's first in-ear design sounds like a winner to us. Originally released in late 2008, Sennheiser's CX 300 II Precision earphones are some of the oldest models on the market from the CX Line, but continue to deliver in almost every aspect. For those looking for a high-performance pair of earphones within budget, these are certainly worth considering. Features & Sound

Yes the new cx-300ii is not perfect I still think the bass could be tighter, it dosent have the big soundstage of my AKG, the mids are not as full as they could be, and not the top end is not open as it could be either, and it dosent have all the detail either. But for the price to me its very good value, its musical and sweet sounding, smooth, fairly open and detailed, reasonably well balance tonally probably slight emphasis on bass though, and compared to the old model it is better.Vocals and instrumentation both benefit from this clean and precise presentation. Slightly forward leaning, the mids in the CX 300S offer a refreshing alternative to a v-shaped sound profile. The result is an ample and full sound that seems equally well suited to any genre – but one that abounds with an impressive amount of resolution for the price. High End SOUND Overall Impressions: Bountiful lows, good detail for the price, versatile sound signature. Lows Call quality remains succinct and accurate enough, with my voice registering clear and crisp. Specifications In general, they’re comfortable. There is a carry case and four options of ear buds, so a good fit isn’t difficult to find.
