Creative Labs EP-630

Heralded by the headphone enthusiast community as the KSC75 of ear buds, the Creative Labs EP-630 is a cheap replacement for stock earbuds or entry-level headphones. Spawned from the Sennheiser CX300, a popular ear bud that costs 3-5 times as much, the EP-630 is a diamond in the ruff. While it can not compete with higher quality buds or canalphones, it does represent an amazing value for the money. With an MSRP of $39.99, it is not uncommon to find the re-branded versions or the EP-630 itself for $10-25 dollars.
