I'm looking for a set of earbud headphones. I have some IPod ones that were OK but I thrashed them. Anyone have any luck with the Sennheiser CX300's? Or cheaper, those Skullcandy ones from London Drugs? I know you can't ask for much out of earbuds, but I want some decent bass and something I can run, ride and ski with that won't fall out. thanks.
Headphones?
I had to sit down the first time I heard them. had them for like 6-7 months now. totally awesome, come with all kinds of attachments to get the right fit in your ear. good times for sure.
bad thing is that they really make you notice how crappy all of your downloaded music actually sounds.

Thanks! I don't know how I missed those. I'll check them out when I get a chance.
how the shit are ya dan
I'm not sure if I'd ride with $100 buds, but maybe that's just me. I'd save those for normal mobile listening, and use something cheap for sports.

Bad spill and break the wire?
I bought the Shure E2c's aswell. I use them for biking and snowboarding, they're fairly rugged.
They're fucking awesome though. The earplug style ear attachments just rock.
You wont be disapointed if you pick up a pair.

cool…I've always had a hard time finding comfortable earbuds, thanks for the info.
Etymotic ER-6i.
read reviews of them on any knowledgable audiophile site and they all say they are the best for the money. I saw shure's at futureshop and heard good things about them but they were 250$ and not much different than the ER's. I got my etymotics for 100$ off of ebay brand new and they are amazing. They are completely flat, no alteration of the source at all, whatever quality you put through it can handle it. My friend has his hooked up to an external amp from his ipod for proper power and they sound amazing.
as pointed out earlier though, better sound means you really notice how shitty your quality is…
I just checked the future shop site and they seem to have those Shures in stock. Next day off, I'm on em. Those Etymotics are a bit pricy for what I'm going to use them for. Thanks folks.
bump…
