Sorry to intrude... I'm not sure which to purchase out of: Bose Mie2i's, Bowers and Wilkins C5, or Bang and Olufsen 3i's From your experience, which is the best out of the three? I listen to literally everything - but mainly country, heavy metal, easy listening, Motown. I will be using these...

Thanks for the advice guys, I'm going for them.

Lol, I just think in ears are the only way to go in the gym. I feel like over ears always get in the way. Personal preference :p

Literally everything.   Mainly jazz, soul, metal, punk, hip hop, a bit of electronic - the list goes on   Thanks!

The Bose SIE2i fits that description

Just found a pair of these for £99, brand new. Worth a go? Looking for a long term, daily earphone anyway. Thanks

Quote: I've just checked out some reviews for the Koss Porta Pro. A bit of an audiophile classic. I might grab a pair for £20 actually. Thanks again

Quote: The cans I mentioned are both IEM's, I hate headphones for the gym, they just get in the way for me! Sorry, I should have said earphones instead of headphones, my bad. Thanks for the help.

Hi all   So I've been buying £10-20 IEMs for the past few years, for them all to either break or get lost within a few months. I want an IEM that would give me a balanced sound, and one that I would want to keep for a long time without having to keep changing the pair. I was looking at...

Why? I thought sennheiser/Sony were good quality? Which headphones would you recommend?

Hey all   I'm stuck between the Sennheisser CX 400 II's and the Sony XBA C10's...   These headphones are for regular everyday use - for my commutes, for my gym sessions, etc etc.   I listen to almost all genres, you name it - rock/jazz/hip hop/rap/blues/soul etc   I'm even...

Just realised I placed this in the wrong forum.   Apologies, newbie here...

Are the sennheiser momentums a good headphone for frequent flyers (do they cancel external noise well)? I don't want to spend £300 on the QC15's...   thanks

I forgot to mention. I listen to all kinds of music.   Mainly the crooners - slow, swing, easy listening, soul...   Thanks

Hey guys.   I'm looking for a good pair of noise cancelling headphones. I've been travelling a lot recently (flights) and I've noticed how rubbish conventional earphones are. You cannot hear your music because of the huge jumbo jets or that wailing baby!   I've heard Bose are great for...

Update - bought the mie2i's

Quote: How long did your IE2's last you?

After weeks of research, I've finally wittled my choices down to the Bose MIE2i's and the Bose AE2i's - which ones are better and why?   I have never owned around-ear headphones before, so i'm not sure how they're like in terms of portability etc. I have always used in-ear earphones in the...

I'll take a look at those, thanks :)

Firstly, thanks for taking the time to check out my first thread.   I've bought many "sub-standard/cheap" in-ear headphones in my time, but finally want to invest in a decent, durable, long lasting product for a good couple of years at least.   I listen to literally all kinds of genres...
