Sennheiser has, for a long time, been a watchword for quality in the headphones sector, and not just at the high end. Its cheaper in-ear models have always been a reliable budget-buy, and the CX 3.00 are no different.

Earphones might be getting smaller and smaller, but does that mean you have to compromise on audio quality. Of late there have been quite a few earphones that have been able to offer a rounded audio experience. I think it is time we added the new Sennheiser CX 3.00 to that list.

For a price of Rs. 3,490, you have the SoundMAGIC E80 and the OnePlus Icons which offer better audio clarity and much better overall experience, along with better build and design.

Sennheiser, a name known for its audio products and the maker of the open-ended audiophile headphones category, has a huge consumer product offering. From that portfolio, today we have the CX 3.00 earphones from Sennheiser, a replacement for the popular Sennheiser CX 300 II earphones.

Just everything about these earphones has short term written all over it! The buds slip off and can easily get lost, I've had mine for 8 months and the left one has stopped working with some distant crackling in the right.

When it comes to sound, Sennheiser enjoy an enviable reputation. And the CX series in particular has been winning rave reviews for its ability to combine functionality with good design and very good sound quality.

Pretty good but the ones they replaced (cx300ii) were better, a bit too much bass & symmetrical cables suck!

I bought the black version of the CX 3.00 replace a very old pair of Sennheiser earbuds which have been amazing for many years, but are finally starting wear out. The sound clarity is nowhere near as good. The plastic enclosures look and feel very cheap.

First time i tryed clisck and colsect and i was very happy delivery ngoods was fast n in same condition haw it looks like

great sound quality and amazing bass love them but upset how one doesn't work anymore

ear wax gets stuck in the canal and is impossible to get out one of the earphone has broken when I was trying to clean it out it needs a better design
