Ear Buds -- any good ones for a Christmas gift

Also a fan of bose. its not just the sound quality but the way it molds to your ear makes it so good.

If you want to bluetooth it, there are devices where you can just plug it into a receiver and use Bluetooth with for for your phone.

OP again....

Yeah, I know. Bose. I grew up dancing to "Boogie Fever" and Bose was the name at the time. And, if you read through the thread, it was the brand I originally gravitated toward. However, it is a new era and the young'uns seem to be into the Beats stuff. So, I adjusted to what people said here about the younger set liking the Beats best and went with it. Again, myself, Bose (or Seinheiser).
Anyone remember Boogie Fever. Whew, makes my head spin thinking I actually danced and listened to that stuff. Wonder if I can find my suede leather fringe vest....

I've had good luck with inexpensive JVC earbuds that i've bought at Wal Mart. The sound is good enough for my ears.

I have a friend who swears by the Audi OHM earbuds he got off Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VJU19Y...TF8&colid=22JTD6XDSM8GU&coliid=I14HBNIAMX5DG2

I think you will be happy with the Beats. Since they were purchased by Apple their customer service is fine. i bought the wireless power beats 2 and after 10 months or so I noticed it was no longer charging. They required the receipt but they replaced it and sent me a new one.

Thank you all for your help!

Appreciate it greatly. Sorta of like taking "Ear Buds 101."

Very, very good information.

So, I ended up with Beats, wired Tour 2. While there were some negative reviews, for the most part, they were positive....and since the ones I bought were the new improved version, I think any of the old concerns had been dealt with by the company.

Additionally, I was able to get them for $80 off from a reputable vendor. Thanks again.
