6. SoundMAGIC E11C – £49

We have awaited the SoundMAGIC E11C with some anticipation; with various models already available, what can the E11C bring to the table? We have found the E11C to be a grown-up earphone with a keen knack for giving a clear and accurate presentation across the board. A truly impressive earphone for the price and in our opinion the new budget king.

Have We Missed Anything Out?
Please feel free to leave a comment below and let us know…
i wear hearing aids nhs. when watching tv samsung smart i need the volume too high for my family .would some headphones help without affecting anyone else watching
Hi I live a relatively short journey from you (Dorking) so happy to visit you to listen
I am after some wireless earbuds for my iPhone, as mp3 i appreciate its not worth burning the bank, but want something sensible to enjoy the sound
To give context My home set up is Naim based 135 mono powers, Naim amp with the the 500 cd player i use sennheiser 600 for when I have to not play through Dynaudio speakers, so quite keen for a sensible balance between cost and sound
What would you recommend? I was thinking of the momentum, but would i appreciate the difference?
Your help would be appreciated
Hi Gary. It would definitely be worth a visit to come here and listen to a few models. The Momentum is very good – I’d also consider the Lypertek TEVI. They are £99 and challenge the Momentum in terms of sound quality, build and battery life. Give us a call and book in a demo when it suits you 🙂
