The headphones that are included when you buy a personal stereo player may not be the best performers around. You can get much better sound by upgrading to a better headphone. Take this Sennheiser PX100 as an example. An open design, these lightweight and small headphones deliver amazingly good, punchy sound with good bass response. The PX100 folds down so you can carry it with you virtually anywhere. Crisp and fast bass response due to system twin damping Easily replaceable ear pads and headband padding Color - iPod White

Summary: Great item!
Comment: Good bye ear buds! Music sounds as good as or better than the apple buds. Cushins are soft and comfy on ears. Good buy. . .
Customer Rating:
Summary: Outstanding product
Comment: This is my third purchase of the Sennheiser PX100s (though this is the first pair I've bought in white), and I remain impressed by the quality of the product. I can't speak highly enough about them; they're far better than headphones I've purchased that cost three times the price. Buy them and be very happy.

Customer Rating: 
Summary: cheap but cheap
Comment: The sound quality and design is better than what you might expect for that price yet my pair got a disconnection on the cord near the jack after a month. I cannot use it anymore so I don't think it is the right product if you are going to use it while traveling.
pros
good design (I find it quite easy to put it into its nice case)
good price
cons
too fragile

Summary: Mystery explained?
Comment: We own three sets of PX-100 (2 black and 1 white). Believe me, there is an audible difference between the black and white models. Maybe the white is different plastic, with a different resonance character. This is just professional conjecture. All I know is something must account for the difference, because I'm sure the drivers are the same.
Anyhow, the black ones definitely sound MUCH better than the white ones. I don't know if that has anything to do with the difference in price, but if you don't just HAVE to have white (for fashion sake or whatever), and if sound is the primary consideration, please do yourself a favor and get the black ones.
I have Sennheiser HD-600's in my studio, and of course they sound better (several hundred dollars does make a difference), but the black PX-100 has about 75-80% of the sound quality of the 600's! They are just a little "warm" in character, but for portable players that can be good thing. In fact, I rip my library to high bitrate .wma rather than mp3 (the mp3 codec tends to be warm itself), and the sonic character of the Zen player with these phones is amazing! But they sound great with portable CD players and laptops too.
I'm buying another black one since my oldest one (which I use every day) developed a short, and one channel doesn't play - but that's due to extremely heavy use over several years!
There's no accounting for taste, I suppose, and some people have some strange ideas of what sounds good. As an audio engineer, I prefer sonic neutrality. To my ears, when the black PX-100 is used with a typical portable audio device (in the typical playback environment), the combination is practically perfect. Considering the price, the light weight and the folding design (which I have no trouble getting right), these are primo phones.
