Hello All,

Long story short my wife said she would buy ear buds for our son's entire class (23+ kids).  I know this is not exactly the type of question we getrhere but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with really cheap ear buds (Not IEM's), not concerned with sound as much as durability.

 

Thanks.

 

Cheers,

Jim

In the original post it says "not IEM's"...

 

Panasonic has also got cheap earbuds: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=panasonic+earbuds&_sop=15&_osacat=15052&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313&_nkw=panasonic+rp+hv&_sacat=15052

 

But I think that the JVC Gumy might have better fit for kid's ears...

 

You would probably get 25 pairs for around $150. If you go for cheaper than that, you can probably find something without a brand name in electronic stores. Since you live in the US, how about Radio Shack?

If you don't mind waiting 3-6 weeks, ordering from China is always the way to go for cheap mass purchases. A good place to start is at DX.com , and read the reviews on earbuds. They're all unpaid user reviews, and anything well-rated is probably quite decent sounding, despite being unbranded or very cheap.
