im so tired of buying headphones for my ipod its not even funny.
i seem to lose or tear them up in no time.

Nothing better than a quality set of earphones. You should give Eymotic or Ultimate Ears a try as well. Very nice craftsmanship and great quality.

 

[phatkid77]

yeah ive researched those... but these were actually in a store, i would like to try the er6i and the ultimate ears 4 or 5...

What's the best earbud for not falling out of the ear? Anyone have any good experience with the ear wraparound type?

I know is off-topic but seeing to how this is an earphone thread....

 

[phatkid77]

these worked flawlessly...time will tell, i did not have to adjust them in my ear ONCE..... my e2c, im fuckin with all the time, and once the silicone tip came off in my ear...wife had to get it with tweezers...
and these are 10x more comfortable
im super happy...

How do these compare to the Bose version? Any opinions on that?

It's not necessarily off topic...

I have to have my iPod when I work out. It's almost mandatory. LOL

I can't keep the ear bugs in my ears either. I haven't had much luck with the ones that wrap either.

 

[joeshow5]

there are some earbuds with a glasses-like hook on each one. They are specifically for people whose ears dont hold the buds right.

 

[OuchThatHurts]

I must have ears like Shrek. Isn't it great when you're half way through a good set and one just decides to fall out? Well thanks phats, I'll check into these. Any other suggestions/links appreciated.

Noise-canceling would be nice too but beggars can't be choosers. LOL, and no pm's suggesting to "try superglue, ***hole".

 

[phatkid77]

these block out 90% of outer noise...

Over the head earbuds are the best I've found, specifically Sony brand. They wrap over the head, but still have comfortable earbud attachments and deep bass sound. Here is an example of what I'm talking about. Mine did not cost quite this much, but if I had an extra $60 I'd order them

oh yeah... the cord is alot shorter on these too...i hated the other 9ft monstrosity... this has an adapter, so if you want it in your pants..other wise itsa 18INCH? ft cord for arm band....NICE

 

[phatkid77]

OVER THE HEAD SUCK ASS IF ONE WANT TO DO ANYTHING IN THE WINTER MONTHS....TOQUE FITS OVER EARS THIS WAY...
sorry for the caps

Anybody here familiar with headphone amplifiers? I thought about picking one up to get some deeper bass out of my IPOD. I just have the little Ipod shuffle, but figure maybe an amp would be cool. I love my music, and I love it in the gym!! Check this out, let me know if you ever used one or are familiar with them. Thanks

Ok... dumb question, but I haven't looked into it yet... do they make wireless for iPod?

Nothing worse than to be in the middle of either loading weights for finishing a set and get your headphone wire caught on something. Gees... it's a wonder I haven't strangled myself. Or am I the only one who does this...

I thought I was the only one. lol. It helps to tuck the wire under your shirt.

Franco told me about that and I've been doing it every since. I'm still fidgeting with the stupid earbuds too much though. Like you said though, no music is not an option.
