Why not go even cheaper, if you want cheap I doubt you'll get much better than this for the price.

hmmm not seen them they look good - will the sound be that much more awful than the £50 ones?

If you just want to listen to MP3s on your computer they'll be fine, for £13 you can't really go wrong. The recent reviews on them all look reasonably positive, few gripes about volume and bass but for that price you can't have everything.

Was going to suggest Sennheiser aswell. Have some Sennheiser in-ear buds that were around £12 from Amazon and the sound amazes me for something in that price bracket.

Work great with my ipod, bass can be a little thin but more to do with the tension on the headband against ears. They work better than the price suggests they should, well pleased so far!
