Sennheiser mx-500 lack of bass and vocals sound artificial.
But Creative ep-480 have better balanced sound.
Not only better bass but vocals sound more natural.

Worth every cent if you are looking for a good earbud in this price range.

I did not purchase these earphones separately, but I got them along with my creative muvo 512MB mp3 player. I compared the quality of these earphones to the Sony earphones I recently purchased ( Sony MDR-E827G Sport Earbuds) just to make me feel better that I purchased as good or better earphones. However, I found that my creative earphones produced way fuller and clearer sound than the Sony ones I just purchased! I was happy that my existing earphones were the better ones, but also sad that my new purchase wasn't satisfactory. So basically, what I'm saying is, these creative earphones are awesome;) The foams did fall out a couple of times but they did so when I was pulling the earphones out of my crowded backpack. If you're careful with them, you'll be ok.

The sound Quality is probably the best you can get. the foam cover came off, but was a blessing in disguise, because now it fits my ear, it was way too big before, btw i got it free with a zen nano, Id certainly shell out 15 bucks if reqd.
