Introduction Introduction  
The Sennheiser CX 300-II headphones are an entry-level set of in-ears. They don't have much to differentiate them from other in-ears aesthetically, but they are a better than average value.

The CX 300-II did well on our sound quality tests. They have a good frequency response with strong bass, low distortion, and even tracking.

Most in-ears tend to have excellent isolation, but the CX 300-IIs are just average in this regard. They do have a good max volume and leakage control, however.

We thought the CX 300-IIs were comfortable for a set of in-ears. Their sleeves were a bit thin, so they didn't put much pressure on the insides of our ears.

The CX 300-IIs will be available in the US soon for about $75.
