We have a complete review of Sennheiser cx95, Sennheiser cx500 and Jays Qjays, maybe the best in-ear earphones under 170€.
SevenClickers have tested and reviewed all of them and we show you our impressions, now you have to choose the best for you.
Following, the entire review…

Jays QJays are the smallest in-ear earphones in the market, and it´s has the coolest design, just holding the box you know there are something smart inside.
This model fits two micro armatures in each earphone, one tweeter that delivers precise highs and one woofer that creates rich lows and mids., that´s because the sound is so great.
QJays are provided with a soft silicon sleeve, available in five sizes, those fit snugly in any ear and sleeves are washable, so allow you to keep them clean at all times. Jays silicon rubber sleeves reduces very well the background noise . With this silent you can experience an amazing sound experience even at low volumes.
Sound quality is really great, balanced sound, excellent mids and highs, and a correct bass. We think if you listen vocal or instrumental songs, like Jazz, Opera, Twist… Qjays is your choice.

The CX 95 are high quality, noise-isolating ear-canal-headphones with a very balanced sound. We know Sennheiser products always means quality, but in this case is awesome.
It´s feature a short cable, perfect for using with a mobile phone or MP3 player with a remote-control and/or microphone, but you need to use an extension cable if you use it with a player carried in your pocket.
Optimal fit in the ear canal due to ergonomic design and ear adapters in different sizes. As Jays, Sennheiser provide its products with different adapters to be used by different standards.
We really love Sennheiser CX series, sound is great balanced and the quality is very good, If you listen House, dance, R&B, Hip-hop, or music styles in which bass is very important, that´s your choice.

Frequency response is slightly smaller thanCX95, only 500hz lower, it is featured with a volume control integrated in the cable, it´s 500mm longer.
As his “brother”, CX 500 has one of the best bass experience and noise attenuation built in a Mid-High quality in-ear earphones around this price.
All of them are very comfortable, and they are small and lightweight.

If you have an iPhone in your own already, I’m sure you had not great surprise when you tried to plug another than supplied earphones on it, yes we too. Only a few specific earphones for this platform fits on iPhone’s Jack plug. Why?, it´s because apples jack is longer than standard. Nobody knows the reason of this “problem”. So, you need a headphone adapter like this (see picture), to plug your earphones on it. In our case we have used a Belkin headphone adapter.

The Headphone Adapter allows you to connect any headset to your iPhone. Simply attach one end of the Adapter into the audio jack of your iPhone, and the other into your existing headset, simple.

As you can see in the picture below, standard jacks doesn´t fit to the end of the hole. It´s an Apple design mistake? maybe not, they want you to buy their earphones, we think.
