Recommend some good earbuds for me? [message #66141]

I am in need of some new ear buds. Mine always seem to break within a few months. I think the longest I have gone without them breaking are about 6 months or so.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a half decent brand or should I may switch to just regular head phones? Are head phones more durable?

Get something that fits well into your ear and blocks out outside sound. This way you can listen to your music a little lower because you don't have to turn it up to compete with outside sound. This is much healthier for your hearing.

I have Sennheiser i300 they're like 70 bucks but they work really well, never problems and they block out all outside sound.They have a mic too so you can use them for calls.

Everybody I've talked to and doing world travlng myself on aircraft, is the Bose over the ear the headsets, as far as noise canceling. Sony, Senhieser, and Panasonic dosen't cut it (the noise).

I'm on my second pair of JVC ear bud's after 5ys. They'll run you about 35-45 dollars (The last I bought them for) from Best Buy. I'm working on the pair I bought 2yr's ago.

Check out the JVC earbud.

Thanks for the suggestion Bill. I had been looking into JVC, but wasn't sure if the earbuds would actually be worth the money. They sound pretty durable though. I had been buying the cheap ones from Walmart, and they just aren't cutting it anymore.

I know this sounds crazy, but in desperation while I was out one day and needed a pair of earbuds immediately, I bought a pair from Dollar Tree. I thought I would just use them temporarily until I got something better, but this was 4 months ago, and they still work! It was some off brand type, of course, but just thought I'd mention it...

I can't name a specific type off the type of my head, but the most successful pair of headphones were made by Samsung. It was for an touchscreen mp3-player at the time, one that I had over 4 years ago. Those headphones just continued to work even after that mp3-player died. The only reason I don't use them now is because I accidently crushed one of the earbuds. It was a sad day.

The time I burned my guitar it was like a sacrifice. You sacrifice the things you love. I love my guitar.
