    In ear Seinheisser or Shure; ($$$). If you don't want to spend too much, Panasonic or Skullcandy.

    Sony is ok but they tend to be too bassy imo.

    Panasonic: Maybe
    Skullcandy: Hell no.

    budget is ard $20-30. i usually use my ipod when im taking public transport so outside noise can drown out the music n i'll haf to turn it louder. i read reviews that in-ear ones can block outside noise but can b uncomfortable if it doesn't fit.
    too bad u cant test before buying.-unsure

    Get the in ear ones definitely.

    I've tried the Bose "In-Ear" earphones, they have the maddest bass.
     
  8. ^ and they only cost $99.99 LOL or maybe a bit more..... but you can probably find a discount but still would be $80......

    Bose "In-Ear" headphones suck :nono:

    They're bass isn't that great and the mids and highs are terrible. -dead

    The sennheiser mx70's are decent and just under $30.-lol

    never heard about the sennheiser mx70's. are they just normal headphones or in ear ones?

    The MX70's are earbuds. I guess they are the Sennheiser "sports line".

    DONT get a skullcandy...I dont even know why their around 50$, waste of money. Get Seinheisser CX400's I use them and I find its quite good. A bit pricey though at like 110$~

    well its upto u but all we can do is just give advice. besides u don't want to get a cheaper set which break down easily and have bad sound quality now.

    You should take runtohell's advice and pick up a set of JVC Marshmallows. They're $15-20, sound great, and they are made very well. For that price, how could you go wrong?
     
  18. dammit yo i wanna use in ear earbuds so much, but it seems my ears arent made for earbuds..

    shit keeps slipping out, and when it does stay, it irritates the shit out of me..

    does it take some getting used to? is there a way to stop ir being irritated?

    u probably just need a good pair that fits... find a set with multiple sized buds...

    Lower end In Ear Monitors are designed very poorly and only come with 1 set of tips. Higher end ones will often come with multiple different tips.
