I am starting my new workout tommorrow and bought a 120gb zune(had a archos 5 120gb sold it) and have a Fiio E5 amp and AKG K181DJ headphones. How ever I don't want to use those in the gym for obvious reasones, I want something with good sound quality and bass like the AKG's but that will hook on my ears and still go inside them to block out noise. Any one know headphones like this? Price is a factor but I paid 150 for the AKG's so as long as its not more then that.

I'd say you probably want to look towards some IEM's

If not, probably the PX100, which I've read have more bass than one would expect.

IEM's are the way to go. I work out with my JVC Victor FX500's and they stay in fine. I like them better than the Shure se530's I had. Anything on the ear is a pain when your sweating.

The Px100 they don't look to bad, I have sony mdr as40ex right now and they suck, dont even stay in my ear. Basically I just need something that will stay on my head, light, good sound quality n bass, n not slide off or anything like that

You could buy the Sony Walkman W series...heard they have good bass...it's a iem/mp3 player all by it's own! I'm thinking of getting a pair myself for running :p The link is: Sony | SonyStyle USA

Enjoy!

Sweat tears apart the foam pads on the PX100 (also with the Koss, but you can buy replacements). Better to go with an IEM, especially if the place you workout is noisy. See below for my choices.

Philips SHE9850, JVC FX500, SF700 and SF5Pro...
