I have an okayish sounding pair of in-earbuds considering how cheap they were, the Hifiman RE-300a, and I do like their small size as they fit in the ear okay, unfortunately after years of jamming those types of buds in my ear, I have found they are just not for me.
Now I do not consider myself a true audiophile, but I do appreciate the way music sounds a heck of a lot more compared to pretty much anyone outside of my family. I grew up with Bozaks, Phase Linears, Rotels, etc. So while I do desire something that sounds nice, it doesn't have to be perfection.
Since I am a very active person I'm looking for sport over the ear Bluetooth headphones. They need to be able stay on the head while running, rowing, cutting grass, weed eating, leaf blowing and be able to withstand sweating. Even better if the pads are washable, but I could concede on that. They don't need to be noise cancelling but at least do a good job of drowning out most sounds, have decent sound quality and be loud enough to still listen clearly while on a loud lawn mower. Not one of the super enhanced bass types that kill out all those beautiful mids and highs.
My budget is around the $150 mark. I originally purchased the Soul X-TRA but found they were too large even at its smallest setting so I need a pair of headphones that will fit a smaller noggin (this is the #1 priority). They sure make a ton of sport earbuds, but when is comes to actual sport over the ear headphones the pickings certainly appear to be slim.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
