Ears-on with the Sennheiser CX 500 earphones

Klipsch Custom-3 earphones review

Sennheiser IE 8 sound-isolating earphones review

Reviews They're extremely well-built, with cabling that easily detaches from the earphone enclosures for easy upgrade or replacement in the future. One of the most interesting and unusual aspects of this earphone involves a small screw on each enclosure.
