Aside from IEMs and headphones, are there earphones in your experience that are worth considering at this price range?
I have shure e2cs and like them but sometimes want to be able to hear surroundings.
Thanks.

my humble share lang po

at around P1.2k you may try KOSS ksc75 clip-on transducers ... not good for isolating noise from surroundings... hence, you hear the surroundings too

amazon.com is now selling these at less than US$11.00 as per their recent web page postings

I'm using Senn Mx550/1.3k and Mx760/2.3k, both are very good too.

agree w docfer. bought mine from ferds for only P1200 and was surprised with the high quality sound.
highly recommended...downside is koss ksc75 can be ordered only thru online resellers abroad and not yet available
locally . i heard 5th avenue is planning to restock said koss model within this year.

Many thanks for the quick reply! I checked amazon and they're now going for $16. Positive reviews for these clip ons.
I was about to ask if they were available locally but Voltraizer gave the answer already (thanks for the info).
Just saw in another thread that you got 7 pairs of these. :o Baka naman makahirit ng isa in case you're thinking of unloading. ;) :)
