Sony MDR-EX81 (Denon & other mid range)- fit in mini-plug ?

[colonelbutt]

I am looking for good quality ear plugs for the iphone.
i don't want to spend alot of money, but also i want something distant from the appe plugs.

so far my investigations have shown that the following (by looking at pictures) might have mini-plugs, can anyone verify this:

Sony MDR-EX71
Sony MDR-EX81
Denon-AHC351
Denon-AHC900
V-MODA Vibe Duo

1. Can anyone verify that these do (or do not) work with mini-plug
2. Anyone comment on sound quality ?

thx

EX81 fits OK, but as it's a rightangle it sticks out a bit (you may have issues in tight pockets).

Really nice sound quality (especially compared to the stock buds, which are truly awful) - I went from EX71's to EX81's. The 71's are good, the 81's are better. I've never tried the Denons so couldn't compare those.

The Sony 71 fits ok. The outer layer of the plug is made of soft rubber so it's possible to push it into the iphone.
