Headphones for iPod

[Jennifer S]

I don't like the earbuds that come w/ the iPod. They hurt my ears. Anyone have something else they love but does not cost a fortune?

After some research, I bought the Sennheiser PX 100 headseat.

They are not expensive, get good reviews (exc. sound for the price), and so far I really like them!

I have these, they are constantly falling out of my ears. You still have to stick these in your ears, but they are a bit comfier. However I went back to my others as I couldn't move without them tumbling out (They come with different size buds, but that didn't help me)

To me they look like they would fall out all the time. Personally I'm thinking of getting an over the ear pair, the kind that have a hook that goes around the ear like a phone.

These are the coolest things ever. I'm not sure how much they are, but I'm willing to bet they are pretty expensive. They aren't out on the market yet, though. I love these things. They are amazing!!! They can go up to 30 feet away from the iPod. There's a little bluetooth device that plugs into the iPod and it sends the signal I guess it is to the headphones. Did I say I love these? They have really good sound quality, too!

(They probably aren't what you're looking for, but I just had to share! They are flippin' sweet!)

I have those and I love them. They are so much more comfortable than the ear buds it came with!! My ears felt bruised if I wore those too long!

I also cannot wear the earbuds without them killing my ears - so when DH bought me the video iPod, he got me these http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=61D9D411&nplm=TL005LL%2FA

And I love them. I don't have a problem with them falling out.

that's exactly how my ears feel. Glad you like them. I may just order them. I'm still looking at some of these other ones people are posting

I hate earbuds, makes me feel like I freakishly small earholes.
I bought a Sony pair that hook around the ear, they are MUCH better. Here they are.

I use my Bose headphones with my iPod, especially when on a long flight.

[OK!]

The best earbud-type headphones I've found so far (for me, anyway) actually came with my Pioneer Inno XM radio. They're a lot smaller than the buds that came with my iPod, so they actually fit in my ear, and even when I've snagged the cord on something, it takes a heck of a yank to pull them out of my ears. Unfortunately, I don't think you can buy them separately as yet, but Pioneer is launching a line of headphones, so maybe someday soon. The sound quality's excellent, BTW, much better than most headphones I've tried.

Apart from those, I always like the tried-and-true Sony in-ear headphones, similar to the ones that used to come packaged with Walkmen (Walkmans? Dunno what the plural of that would be.) I like the over-the-head aspect of them especially when I'm wearing them outside--they really help keep my hair out of my face!

The phones that come with Ipod are uncomfortable, and they don't sound very good. I bought a pair of Sony buds at Best Buy which feel better and sound MUCH better. You might be surprised at the difference in quality.
When I am walking, I do have a little trouble with keeping one of the buds in, but if I am just chilling at the airport or on a flight, no problem. BTW I think my Sony set was about $40.
