I bought 2 of the Sennheiser MX 300 for just under £5 each unboxed and they are fantastic, I have had them well over a year and they have served me well.

While both pairs have broken, this is entirely my own fault and not bad design, Probably me trying to break 1 pair and then accidentally breaking the other, and i can totally recommend these to anyone who wants good sound but dosen't want to pay more than £10, They are a bargain, and if i didn't manage to fix one pair, I would have ordered another pair today.

The biggest problem is that the soft ear bud cover does get lost very easy, I decided not to use them either since i felt they were significantly comfortable without them.

Overall, I think these are the best headphones you can buy for £5, or even £10 or £15, maybe when you get into professional £30 territory these are out matched. 10 out of 10 on everything but comfort level, that's a 9.

some people pay as much as ten dollars for the Sennheiser MX 300 headphones, but I only paid 3.88 a pair. Get them throught ecost.com. they sound really well even with my 5 dollar mp3 player.
