Creative (EP-630) vs Sennheiser (HD-202)

[HeadBanger_13]

Hi guys!

I'm new at the forum, also kind of newbie, so be pacient :lol:

Well the title says it pretty much, i know it's a totally different world since the creative ones are earphones and the Sens headphones, but anyway, please give me your opinion on wich is better in sound quality, all the comments are fully apprecied.

Sadly these are the only options i have in my country, so it's almost immposible to get different models.

So, what you think? What should i get?

I can also buy EP-650 & HQ 1600 in the Creative side. And HD 201 & CX 215 in Sennheiser products, but i think the two on top are the best choice isn't? Oh also some Denon AH-C260 & AH-D310, but I really don't know about this brand.

Please, ANY opinion will be great.



PD: I'm not a native-english talker, so i probably have a lot of errors in grammar mostly... :indifferent14: so... sorry

These are 2 very different beasts, one being canal-phones and the other being head-phones.

I have heard the EP-630, but haven't heard the HD-202, so can't really advice on the HD-202.

My advice would be to avoid the EP-630. The bass is bloated and thick, and even colours the mid-range. The treble too feels a bit rolled off. While its OK for movies, I wouldn't recommend it for music.

The SoundMagic ES-18 would be much better in terms of sound quality, though it's not as bass heavy as the EP-630.
