My right ear works fine again!

©Sennheiser

About one week ago 8.00 in the morning: I was on my way to my workplace.
Suddenly my right ear turns deaf. Of course not the ear itself but one plug of my headphones got soundless. Damn! 5 minutes to walk with only half of the in-ear entertainment left. The first thing I had done at work was searching for a replacement. Of course I wanted a way better replacement! I remembered a friend of mine showed me a Sennheiser headphone. He was pretty content with this earplugs. I found the Sennheiser CX300 headphones for a good price. Today I got them!
I have to admit that headphones can look good! They are white with white cable. Not bad - but that isn't that important for headsets. Since the CX300 headphones should be placed tightly within your ear canal (intra aural), ear adapters in three different sizes are enclosed. My first impression was "is this really my music?". It sounds like a cow peeing into a bucket. I tried to put the plugs deeper into my ear and then it happened!
Really great bass-driven and powerful sound. And the best thing about these headphones is that your will hear nothing but your music! Your environment is almost mute. Its pretty cool when you only see your colleagues moving their lips...

I can't hear out of my left ear because it really is deaf. Well, 80 decibels below normal that is. I use a hearing aid which is wonderful, but it is not as good as the ear I was born with. Peggy

I'm sorry about that. Please excuse the usage of "deaf" in that technical and slightly funny context...

After readign your story, I'm even more happy to have healthy ears. Everybody should do so!
I can't even imagine what 80 decibels mean. To what it is comparable to?
