I had a pair of CX300-B that I wore out (wire connection short) after heavy use at the gym. Bought a different brand highly rated. I wore those out too. Saw the current price on the CX300 which has dropped dramatically and got them. I forgot how much better they sounded than the other brand. The music is much more alive, the bass is great. A great buy!

Sweet for the price... The one thing I do not particularly like is the longer ear cord on one side than the other from the "Y" split... If you're used to that kind of headset...fine... But I find it a bit pointless and it does cause an excessively long cord on the one side...

These have to be the best headphones I have ever had for my MP3 player. I've gone through about 3 cheaper ones and they all used to fall out of my ear whenever I exercised. These are a snug fit all the time and most of the time doesn't even feel like there's any headphones on my head. They're definitely worth it to get.

These are both my first "in-ear" earphones and my first experience with Sennheiser. I'm not a convicted audiophile, but I do have a pretty good ear.
Here's the overview:
Good sound for the price (I paid 18 bucks). Great bass, especially.
Medium comfort for me, but your mileage may vary.
Died a slow, agonizing death within a month of purchase.
And specifics:
They "isolate" noise very well. I had to take one bud out of your ear if you want to talk to someone, even with no music playing. I hope that doesn't bother you.
They're loud. That is to say, it hurt my ears above 40% on my computer, and I would routinely crank my previous headphones and earphones to 100 for long periods of time. With these, you'll never keep hitting the "increase volume" button out of frustration again, even on a noisy subway.
Great bass. Even after boosting the bass frequencies 6-9 decibels, the bass was clear. At higher volumes, it almost rattled. Treble didn't slack off either. These earphones were a large sound improvement over my favorite $40 headphones (some Sony ones--I forget the model).
They're not the most comfortable, at least for me. I think I have incredibly average-sized ear canals, but even with the extremely medium-sized rubber tips attached (it comes with small, medium, and Bigfoot-sized), the darn left earbud kept falling out. I'd just sit there and it would slowly work its way out, making rubbing noises as it went. Not fun. Of course, you will most likely have a completely unique experience.
After a few days of break-in, I think the bass really mellowed out. But the treble and midrange were still very nice. It was at this time that it felt like I was slowly going deaf in my left ear. The left ear bud just kept getting quieter and quieter. To compensate, I would move the balance to the left. This continued very slowly for a couple weeks. Right now, with the pan set at 96% to the left, it's still biased to the right, and I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to having the sound properly balanced. And even at 100% volume, I can hardly hear any sound. I wish I knew what caused that. It's mildly ridiculous, and the reason for the one star review.
These buds have died, and only after less than a month. I spent quite a while looking around for my warranty information with no luck. I think these buds would have been a pretty good value if they, you know, worked, but I won't be buying a replacement pair.
Hey, hope this helps.

I have little ear canals and these were comfortable for hours at a time. The sound was great and I loved the offset so they could hang around my neck when I took them out. Cord was a bit flimsy and broke after some admittedly heavy trauma, but I think it would have broken under much less stress.
