Lost my super fi 3 studio

[Lowfront]

Well I officially lost my super fi 3 studio headphones. Of course when I really want them as I have long plane ride coming up and like to sleep with them while I travel.

Anyone have suggestions as a cheap alternative. I really never used them for music at all given the inferior sound quality to my other phones.

So anyone have a really cheap in ear headphones for talk radio only?


Thanks

Well, first off define "cheap."

Also, don't choose the Shure E2C if you plan on keeping them long-term; major cable problems reported everywhere on Head-Fi.

It occurred to me that the copper in the wire has a nasty habit of oxidizing. Guess that gives appreciation to the term oxygen free copper.

Cheap as in cheaper then the super fi 3 studio's.

They were what 100bucks. Talk radio doesn't require HQ to say the least. Good noise cancellation is all that matters. I really liked the super fi's foam ends.

KSC75's or Marshmallows

wait, noise cancellation, nvm

JVC Marshmallows. With the E2c mod they offer the best isolation out of any 'phone in their price range I believe.

JVC Marshmallows will run around $20. They are OK, but not as good as KSC75's. If you are looking for isolation on the cheap, I think they are the best way to go.
