These headphones are great, if you have large ears, if yours are fairly small it would be best to avoid and go for something else if your going to be listening to music on them for over half an hour at a go, other than that minor quibble, the sound is very good, much much better than any ipod stock headphones, theyre inconspicuous and cheap for what you get. you can ge tthem on ebay for about a tenner which is quite good, if your looking for a cheap, good sounding pair of headphones for an mp3 player then i strongly suggest you get a pair of these, so long as you can put up with the fact they can be uncomfortable

Quick review of Sennheiser MX 550
I bought these to replace the Apple ones supplied with my ipod nano. I was disappointed with the result - the only benefit being the in line volume control - the sound wasn't as punchy. After 10 months one channel died. I took them back to Comet for a replacement. The replacement lasted 2 months before a channel died again. Only the first pair was guaranteed so I'm stuck with a dud. I'm back with the Apple earphones and actually enjoy the brighter sounds these give. I wouldn't buy MX550s again. ...
