SnippetsConclusion
These aren’t bad for an entry-level set of headphones. $250.
Conclusion
The Phiaton PS200s are a good set of entry-level headphones that have an unfortunately disproportionate price. On our comparisons, they often offered slightly better audio quality, but did so at a disproportionately higher price. In terms of performance, the PS200s performed a tiny bit better than the Shure SE420s and the Apple In-ear Headphones and compared favorably to the Denon AH-C351s: these three headphones are $50, $170, and $200 less expensive than the PS200s, respectively.
Even if you are crazy in love with their aesthetics and don’t run into the fit issues we did, $250 is a bit much for the PS200s. If you can pick these headphones up for about $200 or cheaper, and they fit you perfectly, the PS200s arent a bad set of entry-level in-ears.

The Sennheiser CX 680i in-ear headphones are a decent set of lower-mid-range headphones with a remote & mic. They don't have the best quality and they're not quite as rugged as we would've expected from a set of in-ears aimed at the gym crew, but they're a great value at $100. Read full 13-part review
