currently use some ksc75's, but have sennheiser mx51's on order.

Ultimate Ears Super.fi 5Pro (they seem to have changed the transparent cable to a black one) and Sennheiser CX300 on the go.

AKG K701 at home.

Haven't gotten either yet (just ordered) but going to be using the V-moda Vibes with my black 2gb m6.

Hm I want new headphones, that's clear. But I can't decide

Which one is the best for me? I want to pay 0-70€ and have the best sound quality of course.
What do you think?

Why dont you try some JAYS? err0r reviewed the D-JAYS and seems to be top quality and great sound... JAYS website

Imho there are 3 real Options.
Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 (about 75€)
Audio Technica CK7 (also about 75€)
Westone UM1 (you'd have to import them from the US) - price depends if you have to pay tax or if you don't have to.

Since I don't know the Jays I don't know how they sound - so no recommendation by me.

Anyway.. to give you a clear recommendation we would have to know your listening habits (which music, where are you listeing to music, which headphone style do you want etc.)

i like them just fine, sound-wise. except that my ears feel sorta stretched if i use them. i think my ears are smaller than average. in any case, it's uncomfortable for me to use them for any length of time so i prefer to just use the in-ear type earphones, as they have different sizes of earpieces.

any experience with the V-moda Vibes? They seem to be getting good reviews over at head-fi. gonna be getting a pair soon (being shipped right now)

Actually I've never heard of them.
What's the price of those thingies?

For my taste they look too much "bling bling", if you know what I mean.

Maybe you could give me some links over to heafi where the phones are being discussed/reviewed?
