Hi all,
I'm a paralegal by day and I can't live without my music while I'm at work -- it's what keeps me driven. I listen to ambient chill/downtempo type music, which includes a lot of female vocals as well as rich, deep bass tones.
I've been on the hunt for something that will go in my ears (to keep it fairly professional looking) but I've never tolerated "earbuds" in the past. (Back in the late 80's I had a great sounding set of Koss buds but they ached in my ears after only a few minutes -- and I haven't worn any in-ear 'phones since then). Because I'm at an office and I need to pay some attention to what's going on around me, I prefer to have an inline volume control for convenience.
I've been out of the market for a long time and am overwhelmed by the choices out there, so I wanted to bring this before all of you, who have stayed on top of this and would know best!
My price range is pretty wide, but I'd prefer to stay <$120. I'm not currently brand loyal in this department but a product that would create brand loyalty is a huge plus.
Your thoughts and recommendations are greatly appreciated!
