Average and not in the same league as CX300 Sent: 06 January 2009
After using these a bit more I thought I would update my orginal review. I have to say that they are massively dissapointing if you have used CX300s before. The sound is really hollow with heavy bass and high trebles but a compete lack of mid range. I will be ordering CX300s today and these will end up on ebay or the bin! - they really dont sound any better than factory supplied phones and the cable length is absoloute joke. It has been suggested that the short length is for mobile use but unless you have your mobile by your chin I doubt it would reach to a shirt pocket and the extension cable is ridiculously long.
A massive disapointment
ONLY FOR USE WITH CERTAIN MOBILE PHONES ETC!!!  Sent: 21 October 2008
I'm thinking of buying a pair of these to use with my Sony Ericsson W880i - why? Because it has a SPLIT cable - yes, everyone, Mr N. Hamilton, Mr D. Morris and the rest - you obviously haven't read the small print. These headphones have been designed for mobile phones and other such devices that use a manufacturers own bespoke connection cable that then has a 3.5mm jack socket at the end (because the devices themselves don't have their own 3.5mm jack socket). Sony Ericsson supplied a pair of 'in ear' headphones with my W880i (that were very short) to plug into their own connection cable. However, I replaced those with a pair of CX300s which greatly improved the sound but meant I had a total cable length that was far too long. Thus, these CX400s have been produced to replace existing short headphones supplied with these kinds of devices!!! Bottom line - buy the CX300s or CX500s if your device has a 3.5mm jack socket. If it doesn't and you have to use non standard cable to connect, then get these!!!

Just bought a pair today from the Apple shop...the lead is way short..ok if you want to put your ipod in your top pocket otherwise rubbish. The box they came in was nuclear proof it took delicate surgery to gain access without shredding every finger....when i finally got in... very very dissapointed for £49.99, I expected to be wowed I was almost crying in my beer. I am going back to my shure's and these are going back to the Apple shop. I should have remembered what my Grandad taught me....
YOU BUY CHEAP YOU BUY TWICE...he was right.
