Looking for some decent headphones that can be used at the gym
 
can't be IEM's as my ears are sensitive and the sweat being pushed into my ear is the reason i'm now looking for non IEM
 
was considering the px100, but they've gone up in price the last time i checked, and even then i thought they were expensive at 40$
 
thanks

are those recommendation from experience? when looking into the porta pros, they don't appear to be headphones that would stay on your head while you're running/being active
 
and the sporta pros apparently don't sound nearly as good as the porta pros..
 
the dt235&jvc has400 look promising, however, the ear cushion look like they'd soak up a lot of sweat and get smelly
 
i've had the ksc 75 and they would dangle on my ears while running

Hmmm... makes me wanna put my s400s on and do some jumping jacks and report back....... lemme think some more that's a tough one...

edit: I myself am trying to get my hands on a pair of 235's... you are prolly right they have velour pads and would soak up sweat..

The sportapro and portapro sound exactly the same. they use the exact same driver. There may be some issue with the plastic housing behind the drivers but I can't tell any difference. Might be because I listen at low volume. I don't think I would recommend therm for working out or running though. They might not stay put.
