Im not looking for great details, just good sounding. I just want something that stays in my ears and is loud. 


Cuz I hate my current IEMs that keeps falling off. Oh and if possible, something that is durable.

MANY THANKS!

I literally came in the thread to say SE215, I sold a pair to a buddy at work strictly for the gym as he's not really an audiophile.

Thanks guys!

So this can even serve as my day to day phones?

And also, with iPhone controls, its much more expensive, but if I buy the separate wires, its cheaper. lol. So where is the best to buy this? Amazon?

I've been using Etymotic 4S for years.  Very durable.  Blocks most of the gym sound out, esp. using Comply tips.

Gee, not sure I'd spend $300 for Ety ER-4 for the gym.  How about the other end of the spectrum, cost wise:  Philips SHE-3590.  Great clear full sound, quite cheap at about $15-20.

It wont fall off right? Thats my main issues. Another is durability, I need something that gets tugged here and there but remains good for a long time.

Another suggestion for you...wouldn't you be better off with a pair specifically designed for jogging / gym work? Have a look at the Amazon page below and check out the video where it says 'Watch this product in action'. These are actually washable too and look like they're the right pair for your needs.

Thanks but they arent IEM, No reviews yet, so how do they sound like? I dont mind semi good/decent audio quality but I dislike crappy ones.

I pointed these out because a friend who is a fitness fanatic bought a pair and loves them. He said that they stay put whilst he's jogging and he likes that he can wash the sweat off afterwards and that the sound is pretty good.
