Brainwavz newest line of higher-end in-ears performs well across the board. The build quality has taken a major step forward, along with both design and ergonomics - to a point where there is really nothing between the Brainwavz and the usual $200+ in-ears I have tested lately. The cable solution is great as it both performs well and seems durable, and it even has a few tricks up its sleeve. We particularly enjoyed the slim and semi-flexible ear hooks, and the fact that the cable is very thin from the y-split and up.

The B200's sound quality is perfect if you want a neutral and detailed set of in-ears. The bass is perhaps a touch on the lean side for conventional music types, but in terms of extension and precision, it does the job really well, especially price considered.

Ergonomics on the new B-series models are pretty spectacular. The shells are small and the cable exits the shells in a manner that does not interfere with your ears. That and its good ear tips, well-working ear hooks, and light-weight cable make the B200 extremely comfortable to wear.
