Favorite Earbuds

[Jose]

I'm a cheap ass....so I use beats. Love them didnt think they would sound as good as they do.

Beats cheap?

I guess you can call it cheap but I like the apple ear plugs.

I actually like them as well, the newer ones that are shaped rather than the old ones that were just round. Anyway, for what they are they are pretty good. I keep mine in my bag as a backup in case the charge goes out on my bluetooth headsets.

I know right, mine were expensive. I tried the Bose and few other more expensive models, but in the end the Beats were best. CD's and wires for me tho...

[Jimbo]

Are there any decent wireless setups out there?

so, yall gonna think I'm crazy but I recommend these cheap ~$6 Panasonic in ear buds:

and ~$11 if you want with a mic:

I have a pair with mic at my desk that I use for work conference calls.
A pair in my car that i use for the gym.
And a pair in my back pack for trips/airplane.


Now, I do own a better pair of Sennheiser cx400 that were about $70 msrp (paid around ~$40 I think) that I have used since 2008. I like them but I really cant tell a $30+ difference to be perfectly honest. The cable is the biggest difference, Sennheiser having a nice soft touch single jacketed cable while the panasonic has a plasticy thin two wire jacket.

The Sennheisers are a bit easier to drive then the Panasonics, the bass is a bit deeper, the highs are a toss up, but the mid range is better (more clear and fuller) with the Panasonic buds actually.

Noteworthy, when I bought those Sennheisers I did test them against a similar price point pair of Shure buds that sounded good but suffered from terrible stethoscopic effect which is why I picked the Sennheisers.


That said, mostly for headphone music (at work) I use a set of Audio Technica ATH-M50s driven by a small vacuum tube amp though. much prefer over the ear cans to in ears.

Yea I hated the old ones because of that reason. They hurt my ears after a while. The new ones which I have on right now just fit fine. The microphone works pretty well too. Plus I can change the music tracks too. I just say cheap cause they came with the phone.

I have some skull candy's just in case of a loud environment and they work pretty well.

It's not earbuds but I did try those noise canceling Bose head phones and those are cool. Can't jusify the price though.

I have Bose earbuds that run 90-100 bucks. Love them, the link I tried to provide didn't work. But they are awesome and I will buy more when they die. Stay away from the Beats hype. I have only read bad things by people who really test products.

I don't know what the fuck is wrong with my ears, but i can get EBs to stay in for any length of time, so I just bought some over the ear Beats. They are big, leak sound, but I like them and they are sound cancelling too.

I'm with you. I can't them to stay in for 10 seconds sitting still. They just fall right out. I have giant ears, though. Even the ones with the over-the-ear hook thing just rest on the outside of my ear hole.

I like the giant, old school, padded things that cover the whole damn ear.

First off I know it is expensive, but this shit works! I have them with my jaybirds and work in a loud place. Got rid of the outside noise and made them 10x more comfortable.

The only ones i found that work for me are the classic iphone style. They sound fine and have plenty of volume. Bought some skullcandy ones and they are shit. Can get the classic ones for $10 with free shipping from Amazon.

Look into these Motorola Buds. Even though they are the around the neck design you can't see them if you wear them under a collar shirt. Also what sets these apart from other Bluetooth devices is the 150 ft range compared to 30ft that all others get. The link below is just an example, I've seen them on Amazon for about $30.
