Need new Earphones What do you use??

[Tboz]

I had a pair of the sony wrap around earphones. They were pretty good, I liked them because the never fell out.. I like the ones the wrap around you ear, the cheap iphone ones always fall out of my ear..

I heard some good things on the ones that suction in to your ear I think there called earbuds anyone have those??

 

[Frank Reynolds]

What is your budget, and what sort of music do you listen to?

 

[ManBeast]

If this is for working out and a mp3 player then I love these:

I haven't looked into audiophile home listening headphones in a long time if that is what you are looking for.

I have had the in ear from Bose for years now and love them. When they break they send me a new pair all I pay is shipping. They are expensive but sound awesome and never fall out. They curl inside your ear. People will say they are to expensive. I had them replaced 5 times. They are starting to pay for themselves.

 

[Frank Reynolds]

Bose is over priced poop..lol

So much better out there, for the price.

 

[prld2gr8ns]

Walmart special Panasonic wrap around ear phones. One pair, 4 years and counting.

 

[Tboz]

I don't want to spend too much. Mayb around $30. Listen to mostly hip hop and rap. And use mostly for the gym

 

[fame126]

I use ibeats by monster n payed 99.00 sound really good after break in period. Not wrap around but noice cancelling. Really good if u dont wanna hear the cheesy gym music without damaging ur ears. I also listen to alo of rap

 

[Frank Reynolds]

Cheap Sets(under $10). Both are good for rap/hip hop and provide good bass. Like with any "In Ear Monitor" you may have to get different tips to get the optimal fit.

[Newtonselite]

skull candys are nice

 

[thegodfather]

I use Skull Candy. Nice sound and only about 20 bucks i think it was.

 

[Young Gotti]

i mostly have used skull candy's, but i always find they last 8 months and then one side goes out and need to be replaced....i just replaced mine last week, decided to just buy a few cheap pairs....jvc and sony both make inexpensive headphones....we'll see how they work today

 

[TheDarkHalf]

I just stick to the iPhone headphones....the seem to last me long enough. I find that if you don't wrap your headphones they will last significantly longer.

However, it's not a matter of if it's a matter of when they go out. I've yet to find a pair that stand the test of time

I'm a big fan of MEElectronics earbuds. I have one set at work and one at home. I don't use them for the gym but I'm thinking about getting a pair of the M6's for the gym.

Yea they sound really good for the price. Honestly with some of the offerings out there these days, there is no reason people should be buying things like "skullcandy", etc when there are similarly priced IEM's that BLOW them away.

Here is a good post, with about 215 reviews on IEM's. You can see that a lot of the ME's rate up there with head phones that are substantially more expensive. Also Brainwavs are good for around that price range.

I just scooped up a pair of these for the gym. JVC FXT90 . They should be here tomorrow, can't wait!

If you have Blue Tooth functionally:

I have an older model of these (wrap around the back of your ear) - I can tell you for sure they will not fall out when working out and I barely notice them being in, even when i am wearing a skull cap over my ears.

The new ones are diffrent so I dont know how they are but sound quality wise they are as good as any in ears i have used. Battery life was good enough - could go maybe 3 or 4 works outs (including cardio) before you need to charge them. They will drain out on their own though so they do need to be charged weekly FWIW.

[trainwcristi]

They're big but you can never go
Wrong with dre beats( they got small ones too, those are the earbud kind )

 

[AaronJP1]

Rap is what I listen to...

Typically use my iPhone ones cuz I dont have to charge em.

I have a nice pair of jaybird secure fits I picked up around x mas time for $50, normally cost 100$.
Bluetooth, many different ear hook & gel designs, sweat proof, they r nice as hell.

 

[lukehayd]

I've got a pair of Koss that I love. Cost a little over $20 but they never fall out! They are like the squeeze/roll ear plugs and block out background noise really good. Don't have to have music turned up as loud to hear it so my batteries last longer too.

 

[R1balla]

i got bose. love em. skull candies are also awesome.

 

[Swanson52]

Rocketfish Bluetooth headphones; I have 2 pairs and rotate them so 1 is always charged. They're the only set of headphones I've ever truly been impressed with.

 

[BigRigg]

Jaybird Bluetooth is what I use

Same here
Only I paid $50 for mine

 

[BigRigg]

You dog you, I payed 100

 

[Masciaman]

i just use skullcandy earbuds lol

 

[mikeg313]

I like skullcandy alot but I always seem to lose sound in one speaker. Don't know if it's the quality or due to the amount of use. Thankfully they usually have em cheap at tjmax.

Those are the best for working out

 

[Natural_Matt]

Try some klipsch in ear buds. You can get em for around 75$ and they sound unreal. Also, for earbuds I recommend spending like 30 bucks on an extended warranty because cords on every kind of earbuds seem to break

 

[mikeg313]

Have you ever tried those wooden ear buds? I guess they claim the wood gives them better acoustics or something but at that size I don't really see how it would be that effective.

Earbud or iem?

Jvc makes a iem with wood housing and they are really nice.

I am loving my fxt90s. They sound amazing.

 

[evandem27]

Dre beats studio's. If you got

Beats are over priced junk.lol

So much nicer stuff for that price.

Go on a headphone forum and ask about Beats... It is like coming here and asking about muscletech.lol

Those are what I was speaking of, I had never heard the term IEM. Is that just a manufacture title for that style? I thought ear bud was pretty much any tiny headphone that fit into the ear canal

Btw those look nice but the price says $365!?!?!? That's insane

In ear monitor(iem) is the style of earphone not brand specific. They insert in the canal. Ear buds go outside the canal like the ones that come with the iPod.

That is a pretty high end set right there.
