Earphone Alternative: a-Jays One

That is also my question, is it better than sennheiser? Im currently using sennheiser CX 300 II and CX 500.

Senn is still the best in my experience, but sadly, it breaks easily under normal daily use. I’ve had several Sennheisers already (CX500, CX400, CX300, and CX300 II), and all of them broke in some way or another.

Now, I use an Altec Lansing Backbeat 326. Sound is pretty decent, but no way near Senn quality. I just bought it because it looks and feels it could withstand punishment. I was not disappointed.

Anyway, I do hope to see a comparison between a Senn. :D

Whoa! Pretty competitive price range. Great review abe.

pretty nice substitute for my old ipod earphones. where can you get this pre?

Where can I get one of these? The price is really good, makes me regret buying my OEM Beats. :|

malamang way better pa din ang senn. hindi nagrereply si abe which means the best pa din ang senn, hindi lang nia pwedeng sabihin kasi paid ad ata ito ng a-Jays. XD

I hope this help…

For 1.8k, this is definitely a must try. The Senn earphones which you can buy online at a 1.5k – 2k price range smells fishy. There are many claiming that these are not really authentic (only OEMs or Class As), which does make sense since you can buy these Senns from the mall at around 3-3.5k price range.

At least when you buy this Jays from official sources, alam mong 100% authentic ang binibili mo.

If I get tired of the stock phones for my Ipod, or if masira na to, I am definitely going to buy Jays to replace it. :)

PS: Sana may promo soon =P

Why don’t you try A4tech. Sounds good and very cheap!!

@Billy
I think my senn is OEM and I have it for 1 year na, everyday ko to ginagamit, at wala pa akong nagiging problema so far. So hindi ko talaga magets yung sinasabi niyo dito na madali sila masira. case to case basis siguro.

I’m a IEM enthusiast and Jens of Sweden (now known as Jays) has disappointed me everytime I bought one. Since their high end buds are such crud, I am not sure how much better these would be than the stock headphones that come with a high end MP3 player.

Sennheiser is hit and miss. Since they have gone mass market, their canalphones range from crap (like I think these Jays) to decent to awesome (and its not based on price), so you need to know what you are buying. At this low end I would say, for example, that at the same price point the CX300 would probably be much better than these (never owned the CX 300 so I can’t say for sure).

Locally here, the other problem is fakes. Senn and Sony are probably the most faked canalphones. I tried to buy a pair of CX400s a few years ago in Park Square and demanded I be able to open the box so I could see if they were real or not (I had detailed pictures of the difference between real and fake) and they were fake! Can you believe that?! I ended up getting them from Anson instead, who had real ones.

However, I found a pair of great IEMs for kick around/bluetooth use I would recommend here. I paid, converted, about P900 for them in HK. Soundmagic PL30: http://soundmagic.en.alibaba.com/product/222448537-200635275/PL30_earphone.html. For the price these are fantastic IEMs for low quality audio sources and they have adjustable bass, which is what caught my attention to begin with. I’ve since bought a few other Soundmagic cans when I am in HK and its been hit and miss but, for the low prices, some of them are real steals but none beat the PL30 for price/performance.

Just for reference, I use ETY HF5s for the airplane (best isolation but mechanical sound so only good for the VOD). My current favs are Earsonics SM3 (ear heaven and great for classical) but I switch to my Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 for that thumping bass for dance/hip hop.

ive been (using/abusing) my a-jays since august 2010…this earphones are very durable…gamit ko to pag nag momotor ako to and from the office about an hour travel expose to (dust/rain/sunlight)…ganda quality matibay talaga…i also have senheiser but it broke down after 2 months of abuse…Sa sound quality naman compared sa senheiser…kung senheiser 10/10 ajays would be 9/10 little difference lang sa sound quality pero sa durability a-jays na ko with 1 year warranty pa…sulit bayad ko dito…:)
