I need earbuds for my new Shuffle, and I need earbuds, not IEM's or Canalphones. I do not wanna any suggestions on IEM's or Canalphones, please. Most likely I would get Senn's or Sony's for like $10. And no Yuin's, I don't want Yuins, no questions asked. So what do you guys think?

the newer ones or the older ones? the first version i had were really painful, but I see they made new ones, and they look smaller too.

I know you said "no questions asked", but what's wrong with yuins? Have you tried them and didn't like them? Anyway, AT makes the EC700's and CM700's, but I don't hear about them much.

edit: Oh sorry, I didn't notice your price point. I'm pretty they don't make any good earbuds at that price once you rule out canalphones.

I have some panasonic junk-buds that came with my player. PM me your mail address and I'll mail them to you. they're pretty crappy, but then again so are most earbuds under $20.

You've pretty much ruled out all the good options at that level. Might as well use the iPod headphones at that price point. The Sennheisers MX400 are a thought, but they're not much better. I don't meant to be coarse; I'm rather curious what's your reasoning for your specific criteria. You must really know what you like, haha.

KSC75 are great, there is no comparison with my MX550, the Koss wins hands down. The MX has better treble extension and clearer mids than ibuds, but all ear buds have no bass in my experience.

Yuin PK3 is the only thing worth spending money on at that price point (and I don't know why you are avoiding arguably the best earbud manufacturer, but I won't ask), so just stick with your iBuds.
