aspire2006.

if u think x3i has no bass... u should try out bijou level 3... ( it's the improved version of x3i but with added bass punch ) but if u find the bass punch heavy then u should go for level 4.

i have tested both crossroad mylar bijou and original nokia earphones

verdict. ( listen to UTada Hikaru - Apple and Cinnamon mp3 format 360kbps )

original nokia earphones included with tube is ok but not good quality because the plug is not gold.

crossroad mylar bijou level 3 which i use with biflanges is added with bass punch and larger soundstage compared to original nokia earphones however bijou is good quality as the plug is gold.

good earphones have gold plugs.

those who do not plan to spend any $$ on earphone then... using the Nokia earphones is good enough.

those who have sensitive ears like aspire2006 and hope to listen to good quality sounds... may go ahead and get those audiophile earphones.
