Ear-Bud Headphones?
 

i have an ipod and the headphones that came with it were never that great, but now they rattle and just sound really bad. i have some decent sennheiser headphones that are large, but i would like some good small headphones to use when i am at school and other places. so i am looking for recomendations since i went to best buy and they had a very small selection, and i hate that no one there ever talks to me to try and sell me something.
thanks

Have you tried the apple in-ear headphones? They are quite a bit nicer.

I swapped them for the Sony ones.

There's a few models, make sure you get the right models and make sure that your mp3's are higher quality rips as you hear EVERYTHING with these.

Check out the iPodlounge Gear Guide for headphones and earphones. Full length reviews, plus user comments.

The Seinheiser earbuds that came with my iriver are great. I don't know if you can get them without getting an iriver, but I would check them out.

Ive had the sony ones too and liked them also.

I have a pair of the sony ones and I really enjoy them. I actually will only buy sony headphones. I just don't like any others, in fact for my at home headphones I have the MDR-V6, which I love.

I hate ear bud phones. I just picked up some panasonic wrap around thingys at Wal-Mart, they were like 20 bucks, and the sound is great.

you want good earbuds?

how about the best earbuds? They are a little pricey, but well worth it:

Etymotic ER4-P (the p- model has the best bass response)

I have a pair, and they are so good at excluding ambient sound that they are nearly as good as noise cancelling headphones. I love them. They come with rubber triple-gasket ear fittings, as well as the squishy-foam style (and numerous replacements), as well as other accessories. And... they are hand made!

Listed at around $300, but I found mine for just over $200.

I swear: they kick ass. (for critical listening, audio engineers, studio, musicians, audiophiles.

You won't regret the purchase.
