This review is from: Audio-Technica ATHCK7 titanium earphones

I have been on a week-long mission, here on Amazon, reading various reviews to find some "great sounding earbuds" for under $100. I primarily use them for the gym and also for traveling. I had a set of the Sony MDR51s but after 2 years of constant use the cables started to fray.

Therefore, I purchased the earbuds listed below to compare sound quality. I would rank them in this order:

1. Audio Technica ATH-CK7 ($79)

2. Sony-MDR81 ($32)

3. Shure-SE110 ($99)

4. V-Moda Bass-Frequency ($25)

The ATH-CK7 was by far the best sounding earbud. The sound quality was great! The ATH-CK7s have a tight sounding bass with some slight "boom" factor (which does not sound artificial). As well as clear highs and solid midrange. They also have good noise isolation.

These earbuds are a good compromise between the very neutral (boring) sounding professional quality Shures's and the lower priced "artificially-produced bass heavy" Sony and V-Modas. Overall the ATH-CK7 sound quality is clear and precise with a natural sounding bass response. If you do not have much $$$ to spend I would go with the Sonys if you don't mind the thin, strange asymmetrical cables. The sound quality is good for the price.

With the ATH-CK7, you get the usual extras - a vinyl pouch and 3 different sized earbuds. The cables are medium sized and not "thick" like the Shure's or thin like the Sony's. As a previous reviewer mentioned the titanium body of these headphones feel solid and well made.

I am very happy I compared a few brands because the differences are huge! I hope this helps with your purchase.

BTW... I am not quite an audiophile but I do enjoy good quality sounding music. I mostly listen to rock at the gym when these using earbuds.
