First time poster, first time reader. Great forum you have going here.
As the title mentions, I'm looking for a descent set of earbuds w/ inline mic for the iPhone. The Apple standard ones are too big for my small ears, and sound like hell anyway.
I bought the Vmoda Vibe Duos, and loved the sound. Unfortunately, they started cutting out in one ear after a month. Enough people have reported this problem that I guess I'm going to sell the replacements on eBay, rather than give them another go.
I tried the B&O Earset 3. Same deal as the Apple ones... Too big for my ears.
I'm not really restricted to a specific price range. In fact, I'm hoping to get recommendations on buds from several price ranges.
I'm also open to microphone plugin suggestions, as long is it's a reasonable suggestion, like Shure provides with the short cord. I'm not really interested in a mic that hangs 3' from the mouth, or the Monster adapter that results in 2 separate cables coming from the iPhone.
Edit: I should add that having the latest, greatest ultimate noise isolation is not a big deal to me. If it has it, great. If not, no biggie. I don't listen in noisy environments very often.
Whatcha got for me, headphone gurus?
