use your hpm-70 with shure e3c or etymotic er6i and you will never wanna go back to other earphones..
however,
that is if u dont mind the mismatch look (some ppl prefer to carry the all-original se look/statement)
you will need to somehow manage the cables as the 3.5mm jack starts right on top of the handsfree unit.

I just can't get along with the supplied 'in-ear' headphones. I've taken to using the Sennheiser noise-cancelling headphones.

I find that I get excellent results with them. Btw (although I realise that these Sennheisers have been around for a while) I can thoroughly recommend them to anyone who spends time on aircraft or in other noisy environments.

If I am bothered, I usually use a pair of Senns HD555. Works really well, but fairly large to walk around with

i find that they are very tinny, unless you wear them as they are supposed to, and yes then it almost feels like too much.
i think i must have unusually small ears. the smallest size still feels uncomfortable in my left ear.
but i will try that trick with wrapping the wire.
they're great headphones, i just find it strange not being able to hear
anything around me when travelling etc

HPM-70 have excellent sound quality, high and very low in particular. I've repleaced my shure E2C+shuffle with w800i
Please note that you have to use proper earplug which suits your ears. I've checked with all 3 and smallest made such a huge difference in bass (you have to use custom equalizer)

I just bought a pair. Definitely better than the standard headset, but yeah, you do have to use the right size earbud (I found small the best also).
Thanks Philasan for you input - I may have just assumed they were crap otherwise.
I'm still gonna try some aftermarket headphones, as the volume level of the HPM-70 units is still a little underpowered (only just).
I bought a cheap aftermarket that I was gonna mod into an HPM-70, but now I have real one I'll mod the original handsfree into an mmc-60 instead. I doubt it will improve the audio quality much, but I'm gonna use gold plated rca's, just for the bling factor.
Bling!
I'll keep the aftermarket as a backup handsfree:

@Max
Nah I dont think the volume is underpowered with the hpm-70. If anything its that exact opposite (for me anyway) as I cant play my music at full volume anymore. Out of curiosity what kind of muisc do you listen to.
And yes I also think the smallest buds are the best not only becasue they fit my ears properly but becasue they sound the best to! The bass is INCREDIBLE with the hpm's so much that I cant use 'mega bass' anymore.
Definetly recommended
