I'm using these Sennheisers with my white X10:



They also have a black version. These earphones are pretty cheap ( I bought them for 20 euros, they sound good , nice deep tones and bass)

Ouch, Sennheiser. They make great headsets but for me those bass-tones is way too much. Personally I use d-Jays. Crisp yet powered sound. I love them. Edit: Forgot price. Lol. In Sweden I can get them for about $100 and that's pretty nice. But yeah, it's way more than €20.

Current phone: Sony Ericsson X10i 'Sensuous Black'
A few old phones (in order from newest to oldest): SE X1i, SE 770i, SE P1i, SE W800i,SE P900i, SE P800i.

Are you guys able to speak into the phone's Mic when using your own earphones during a call? Mine can't and I have to plug them out when a phone comes in.

Im thinking about getting the CX500 earphones... got a price of £29.99... which seems to be good...

I want to have bassy sound but want my mids and trebles...

I am currently using boss earphones...

CX500's sound good. I can't remember what mine are, but they are Sennheisers that have exactly the same buds as the Sennheisers Sony Ericsson use on their HBH-DS970 bluetooth headphones.
For arguements sake, the DS970's go louder than when using the headphone socket on the X10, but the headphone socket sounds nicer.

Been doing some comparisons Nexus vs X10 vs iPod Touch 3G with the same headphones.

Nexus goes louder than X10, quality doesn't sound as good, but it's rooted with Cyanogen which makes the volume louder.
Touch goes a lot louder than both devices, enough to hurt my ears, but does so with high quality. I can't decide whether or not the quality is better than the X10, it's very close.

My headphone tastes are bias towards bass, but I do like the mids and treble to remain...just like to have a thump also!

Is it a european or american touch?
The european union puts a volume restriction on the iPods sold in europe, therefore an american (or asian or whatever) iPod Touch would be louder than a european one.
(just thought that might be a factor in the volume department)
