Hi all,
 
I am trying to find a good headphone/earphone that would work under heavy sweat and stay fixed solidly in place. I mainly indoor cycle and need something that will survive heavy sweat. SQ is not an issue so much, nor is sound leakage.
 
Hope someone can help :)

Currently I use Sennheiser CX685's during my running/fitness sessions. So far (Over the past ~ 6 Months) it seems to be holding up well with the sweat and general abuse that I give it. The adjustable arms on the unit itself help to keep it in your ear, and I find the sound pretty decent for a set of beater IEMs to take on a run.
 
I would say that the main downside is that the cable seems to have quite a bit of microphonics whenever it hits something.
 
Good luck with your search!
 
Ben
