Hi Everyone,
Long time lurker of this community, which has helped me procure my first quality pair of headphones, the AKG Q701s and then ultimately upgrading to the Q712s. This is my first post, because I can't seem to find what I'm looking for here or on google/reddit.
Long time lurker looking to buy a new pair of cheap travel/gym earbuds. IEM's don't fit in my ears, and constantly fall out when I'm at the gym. Earbuds shaped like the ones that come with the iPhone 6 or Samsung Galaxy S5 fit into my ears great and don't fall out. I'm looking for something shaped like those and also have a microphone that I can use while on business calls (wired not bluetooth). Aside from those needs, I value sound quality and prefer a punchy bass. Thanks in advance for all the help!
In summary:
Budget - $50 USD (Available in-store, preferably)
Source - mobile phone, desktop, airplane.
Requirements for Isolation - Isolation preferred not needed
Preferred Type of Headphone - Earbuds (not IEM), Shaped like iPhone 6s EarPods or Samsung Galaxy S5 with mic (compatible with iPhone 6s) for business calls.
Preferred Tonal Balance - Bassy, warm, overall best sound quality
Past Headphones - AKG Q701; AKG K712.
Preferred Music - EDM, hip-hop, House.
Uses - Gym, Airplane, Business Calls, Office.
