Earphones, under £30

I'm looking for some ear canal earphones for under £30 having lost my Sonys on the tube. They will be used with an Iaudio D2.

I had looked at things like the Seinnheiser CX300, which are meant to be god for the price-they sound like they are above average. However, a couple of others, the Cresyn E630s and the Soundwise G4s are meant to be fantastic for the price. Has anybody used them? Any other recommendations? I've also heard that the Mylarones are meant to be good, if lacking durabillity.

K, tempted by them...I had the Sonys before and was slightly unimpressed, sounded a little muddy so think I will miss them out this time round.

Hmm, no, I've found them for £8 from the rainforest store, rather than a rainforest dealer. Got some good reviews. Can anyone else say how good the EP-630s are?

From the reviews I have read the Soundwise G4s are the ones to go for at this price, but for £20 less those Creatives are pretty tempting! Anyone else got any thoughts?

Ended up getting some Ultimate Ears Metro.Fi 100 for under £20 from the jersey retailer. Really good phones, noticeably better than my Sony EX71s. Everything just seems crisper, the bass is still solid but no longer overpowering. Pretty chuffed!
