Sennheiser CX 550 Style II

The Sennheiser CX 550 Style II are in-ear headphones with a brushed metal finish.  The headphones include highly-advanced dynamic speaker systems with Neodymium magnets for balanced sound at high resolutions.  They come with three sizes of ear adapters which not only give the user a personalized fit but also allow high passive attenuation of ambient noise.  Sennheiser has also included two cables with the CX 550 Style II, a short cable that can be conveniently used with a mobile phone or mp3 player with a remote control/microphone, as well as an extension cable that will reach to a device in your pocket.  The headphones are optimized for most portable media devices and come with a cable clip and carrying pouch.  This model is similar to Sennheiser's CX 95 Style earphones with the main differences between the two being the speaker systems used and the design.
