I use this, which is a nice compromise: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/prodde ... ewdeptid=2

Sony earbuds for the most part are CRAP though.

yes they do actually. I even moved my head all around violently and they stayed in. They use suction to stay pretty secure. I couldn't even notice them in my ear after a few minutes which was pretty amazing.

i really trust sony for the most part. I've never owned anything by KOSS so I'd definately have to test those out before I bought them. (even though you could probably buy them and return them if they suck)

I don't know which ones to get.

Those sony sound-canceling ones I used had a cord extension on it that made it long as hell. But without the extension, the cord is only long enough to put in a breast pocket or something.


I'm leaning towards these:

I went to Circuit City and asked one of the workers about it. He told me it's basically the same as the more expensive model without the cord extension on it. The cord extension on the more expensive model was dumb though. Without the extension, it could only be put into the breast pocket. With the extension, you'd have to keep a twist tie on hand to keep the wire organized due to its length.

So I just bought the cheaper one from ecost.com for $24.99 with overnight shipping which will be atleast $10 cheaper than if I got it from BestBuy at the store.

All lowend stuff will be about the same sounding. You get what you pay for. Koss and Sony are a joke when it comes to audio.

dunno about koss, but the sony ones arent quite as loud as the ones that came with the player ... i think its the design tho. seems like the are designed to get the most bass.

they work for me tho ... comfort was more important than sound when i was looking ... the creative ones had my ears hurting like fuk.

yep, couldn't say it better myself.

I didn't want the best sounding ones. I needed something very comfortable and small. I wasn't about to spend $80 on a headset that I can't fit in my pocket since I paid money to get a small/tiny mp3 player.
