thnx
i forgot to add some points which really matter
the earbud type ear/headphones wud feel much powerful to our ears than earphones. It isolates the background noise with a rubber or soft silicon cup which does its job real well. For first time users, it wud feel like a new world, completely isolated from world nd wud feel like he has entered a world of music[ONLY FOR FIRST TIME USERS OF EARBUDTYPE]. That type of earbuds even if not perfect in producing all frequencies[ just in case] in balance, we wud feel like real good. Mainly coz it 'traps' the sound nd the silicon bud too has a role in producing some bass. The punching air when collided with the silicon[acts as a diaphram] which is airtight inside ears produce additional bass. U can feel the bass is reduced to 30~40 % if u keep the earbuds one mm away from ears enuf gap for air to enter spoiling the airtight 'theater' like experience.
Such earbuds usually dun have large diaphrams producing bass. It just produces bass by pushing air which in turn is converted to bass by the isolator.
The speakers in those earbuds will be underpowered compared to earphones like Apples,Nokia nd SE's K series earphones.
Also the earbud type one will consume less power than similar performance earphone type at same volume nd equalizer levels.
If u want best in market earbud type ones, then these are some from brands like Klipsch, Altec nd Creative Aurvana, Bose etc[some one which will cost as much as a cowon player
]
And if the real quality has to be compared, then the audio out of each device has to be directly connected to a Audio Spectrum Analyzer.
And an xtreme 1-1 comparison b/w two already good performing players isn't fair, coz when we dig deep into this word 'performance' it actually means wat sounds best to our ears which might vary from person to person.
And if someone who is get used with his player[which managed to impress him much], wont sometimes find some other player[which someone might argue to be better than the former] that impressive coz it wont be the kinda sound he prefers.
Some people like heavy bass pumped to their drums while some like crymbals to be drilled thru their ears. Btw Y shud we want to prove others???Its gud enuf if we[me or he
] is/are satisfied to a gud extend with it.
BTW, i was extremely satisfied with my old W700i and HPM-70 until the phone fall dead[after a small accident] nd my HPM-70 was stolen from classroom[
].
I like SE phones very much especially in budget catogory [other are also too gud], coz of its sound quality[im not saying its best but really gud for the price] it offers along with other usual stuffs.
Now im planning on a K550i nd use custom acoustics nd use my older HPM-70's fast port connector[ it was not stolen] with my EP-630, until i finish by studies.
Maybe in near future i can get a clipsch earbuds + a cowon
