+1 for the Creative EP630. It will come under your specified budget.
Check here to check out the price.
These are similar to the noise isolating SE HPM-70 earphones so you won't regret it.

buy the same kind of earphones which came with ur w300i. although i havent heard those, but i had w550i and the earphones that came with it are far better than ep-630.

Get the Creative EP630. They are better than SE headphones.

i have seen the prices of these two, the SE HPM-70 earphones r very cheap as compared to EP-630, does that diff refer to quality of sound as well..;-)

I don't think there is a vast difference between the prices of the original HPM-70 and EP630. Perhaps you might've seen the fake HPM-70 which are very cheap.

Also for the added price difference between the two, the EP630 definitely offers better performance.

oh my what a fan following ep630 has on this forum!!

well frankly speaking ep630 is the only "good quality" earphone available in india at this price point. some of the cream of earphones start from $40 onwards, like the V-moda bass freq.

well finally u make a choice. u dont have many options to choose from.

if u do decide to buy ep630, buy from a good source as there are a lot of fakes going around.

well the thing is I gave up my fight against the ep630, there are waaaay 2 many fans of ep630 on these forums. and if i say anything openly against the ep630, this thread would have to be moved to the fight club forum.

@esumitkumar... look at this Thread

frankly speaking the $40 v-moda bass freq is worth every penny, nothing comes close to it at that price point.

head-fi.org is a good place to read reviews of headphones.


P.S. Last 3 statements for esumitkumar only!

So as to use EP 630 with my w800i i ll buy a SE HPM-70 also to get the 3.5mm jack ???
I m using s500i's earphones right now.

I went to sony World in vashi this evening. They said the HPM-75 costs 1549/- something !! is it the right price ?
