Looking at these ones, Sony MDR-EX71, Sennheiser CX300 and and some panasonic ones.

cool

I'm not sure if this is what you are after or not, but yesterday i was linked to this which was described as the best comparison on the internet of the top two in-your-ear ear-phones: Review: Shure E3C vs Etymotic Research ER-6i.

good link nats

but expensive.... but i was looking at getting some, i dont think i would like to spend over $100 mark

I have some sony MDR-XD100's, got them from dick smith they sound ok to me.

My Pioneer HDJ1000's have been serving me well.. They're on the higher side of the quality/price scale though, depends on what you're using them for though i guess.

One thing about Etymotics is their customer service... my ear phones broke 3 times (rough handling by me)... and more more time out of warranty. And everytime, they've replaced them for free (i just snail mailed the thing to them) and they fedex'ed a brand new pair to me. sound quality is good, but if you want bass, you probably might not like them

You must have some big arse ears.

earphones are $2 at any $2 shop.

if you want sound quality, you won't get it under $400, or in a device that fits inside your ear hole.

what

He was asking for in ear earphones and you posted ones that go over your ears.

I saw an excellent opportunity to imply you have big ears because the headphones you posted fit inside your ears.

Comedy at its best.

ohhh, there's a difference.. ill shoosh now.

Fish...

Do you have the cheaper $200 or expensive $400 Etymotics?

You ever used one in a bus/noisy place? How well does it prevent background noise?
Its hard finding any place that actually reviews these rather rare earphones =\

I've never understood the point of headphones for flat out listening to music...

Thats what speakers are for...

Maybe if you're a DJ or you're Mixing live music or something, but really... I always see them as a fallback for if you can't use speakers...

The ones i have are the ER6i, the $200 ones.

I use them everwhere (except work, cause i can't hear anything if my manager starts calling for me). With the tri-flange tips, they isolate sound very well. I hardly hear the traffic on my walk to work though the city... and almost got run over because of that :(

my computer is in the living room, so if I listen to music on it I disturb everyone. There's other people to consider here. It's ok though mongie, you go on being selfish subjecting everyone to your emo rap.

My Sennheiser HD590s are finally starting to kick it, but its been 4 years of hard use...

Lifetime warranty for the win, I'm gonna RA them today I think...

I bought some Shure e3c's while overseas and I am not a fan. I still use them but I generally find them quite uncomfortable and annoying to use. I do need to spend some more time playing with the different sized earbud things though.

I have the ER6i's and LOVE them!

They supress sound awesomely well :D

Initially they were uncomfortable, but after a while I found them comfortable, they have good sound - very impressed with them.

I've alwasy been a headphone type person.. I was the wanker at the back of the bus on the way to uni with the giant headphones on.

I .never. walked around town with them around my neck though, that is the pinicle of gayness.
